MID-SEGMENT GUEST: Bruce Bruinsma

Ministry: Retirement Reformation

#3 of 3-Part Series: In retirement, relationships are super important. How do we know which relationships we should grow, which relationships we should eliminate and which relationships we should start? This whole series has reviewed these questions, and this specific episode will go over the need and importance of making new relationships, even in our later stages of life.

Bruce reviews the seven ways to building relationships with concise explanations that are good to have in mind as you evaluate your own relationships as you listen along. We’re reminded that our relationships aren’t only beneficial to us but also provide us the opportunity to reflect Christ.

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!
