iRetire4Him Show #62 - #4 of 4-part series: A Fruitful Retirement Book
#4 of a 4-part series. Christians are called to ministry for a lifetime. Impacting and changing lives is more than a priority; it is God’s mandate to each of us. This mandate, the call on our lives, has two parts. First, the common call for all believers to minister, impact others and help to change lives. Then, our unique call is based on our unique set of gifts, talents, and abilities. But how do these two callings play out in our retirement? Retirement is not only a reward for past service but also a steppingstone, a launching pad for future ministry -- future fully funded ministry. Bruce Bruinsma, the Founder of the Retirement Reformation, just released his latest book in the future funded ministry series, A Fruitful Retirement: The result of a future funded ministry plan. Bruce joins us today for part 3 of a 4-part series talking about how your retirement years can be fruitful!
