Once you've surrendered, how do you actually hear what God is saying? Discover how to listen effectively in three specific areas of life: during times of peace, during seasons of restlessness, and when receiving feedback from others. Learn practical strategies for discerning God's voice and understanding what's next in your retirement journey. Ben emphasizes why continued action is essential while listening—because movement creates clarity, not paralysis.
