iRetire4Him Show #95 - #4 of 5-Part Series: The Dangers of Growing Gray: Isolation and Bankruptcy
Mid-Segment Special Guest: Dr. Mark Andrews
Ministry: Adoptive Family Resources
#4 of 5-Part Series: Rising costs, credit cards, lack of budgeting, no conversations around money, stewardship issues – all reasons that can lead to filing for bankruptcy in retirement. Our finances need sanctification, too!
Bruce from the Retirement Reformation gives examples about the importance of having “wise advisors” to make financial decisions. And if we’re living in isolation, that’s hard! Seeking out this advice is part of the good stewardship that God has called each believer to. Managing money isn’t always easy, but God is ready to lead you in your financial decisions, if you’ll let Him.
In the second segment, we welcomed Dr. Mark Andrews to share about his organization Adoptive Family Resources, which he acknowledges has brought a great fulfillment to his life after having retired from family counseling.
How could retirees make a difference in foster and adoption ministry? Mark discusses a need for court appointed social workers (CASAS) and volunteers at foster and adoption organizations. Could you be a “wrap-around grandparent?”
