It’s almost New Years and most of us are looking forward to new beginnings, resolutions, and a chance to start over – especially as we move another year away from the COVID-19 pandemic. But for some, the new year is a reminder that we are alone. As far as I remember there are not any psalms about the New Year but there are tons of scriptures referencing new beginnings and fond remembrances. So, how are you looking towards the new year? In today’s show we parse through this subject.

But for some of us, it brings a stark reminder of how much time has passed and how many friends or loved ones have gone home before us. Any way you look at it, Christmas is on its way. As a Reformed Retiree, how should you be looking at this day of celebration? Join us for today’s show, as we have a frank conversation about Christmas and its joys and stressors.

#3 of 3-part series. Money is power... well, at the very least it’s influence. The retired generations of the United States have 70% of the purchasing power, which means we should also have most of the influence on the culture. But how do we learn to wield the wealth influence that’s at our fingertips? Join us in the 3rd part of this 3-part series dedicated to evaluating how culture impacts you and how you can impact the culture. As always, Bruce Bruinsma of the Retirement Reformation is here to join us
iRetire4Him Show #48 - #2 of 3-part series: The Cultural Impact of/on Retirees
#2 of 3-part series: Culture shapes the way we think. Most Christians in the United States are at least somewhat concerned with the direction that our culture has been moving. Tempers are running high, division is everywhere, and frustration and fear are the norm. Christianity is no longer the primary influencer of culture, the media is. How can we stop the madness? Can it even be stopped? Join us in the second part of this three-part series dedicated to evaluating how culture impacts you and how you can impact the culture.
