We start preparing for retirement, almost on the first day of our working life. If we work for a larger company, they make us start saving right away. But in reality, saving money for retirement is only part of the planning for retirement. How much money is nice to know and hard to save but also, where to live, who to live nearby, what are we going to do to occupy our time, where will we vacation and what about the grandkids? So many things to consider and then with iRetire4Him – we are also asking you to consider “What does God want me to do with our retirement years? All this planning is great and very Necessary but what happens when your plans unravel/change/implode? What do you do then? That’s what this 4-part series is all about. So many times, we make plans, but life throws us a curveball and we were looking for a changeup. Here to parse through this with me is Bruce Bruinsma with www.RetirementReformation.org

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!
