Ministry: Leading with Questions

Part 3 of the 3-Part Conversations We Have to Have Series

As we grow older, we’re gonna need help!

We all reach an age where we stop being able to do everything on our own. In your case, that might be now, soon, or further down the road. Either way, it’s an important conversation to have. In this practical episode of the iRetire4Him Podcast, Jim and Bruce discuss experiences from their own lives.

Bruce talks about the conversations he’s currently having with his wife Judy about the help they now need and what help they might need in the future. Jim shares what he and wife Martha are living out now as the primary caregivers for his own 90 year-old parents. In both instances, they emphasize the fact that it’s OK to ask for help!

In the second segment of show 99, Bob Tiede gives a great explanation of when and why believers should retire. As the co-author of Leading with Questions and a team member of Leadership Devlopment at CRU, Bob often spends time with younger men, and he encourages other seniors to intentionally pour into the younger generations. Reach out to Bob if you’d be interested in coaching within CRU.

Meet Your Host

Although Jim is not yet at retirement age, he and his wife Martha lived twenty years residing in 55+ communities in Florida. Their experience has highlighted the harsh reality of retirement in the United States, showing the discontent that can come when people lack purpose in their later years. Surrounded by parents in their nineties and friends in their sixties, seventies, and eighties, Jim and Martha find motivation in observing those who live out their faith in retirement, while also witnessing the frustration of those who do not.

Jim has been hosting the iRetire4Him Podcast for nearly five years, has spoken at conferences, and has co-authored the book iRetire4Him: Unlock God’s Purpose for Your Retirement, with his father-in-law. Although he currently Works4Him, he looks forward to Retiring4Him one day!
