Retirement isn’t in the Bible. True story! We were never meant to work for 30 years and then go on a 30-year vacation. Instead, God’s intention is that we would have a purpose throughout our entire life. In other words, retirement isn’t VACATION; it’s a JOB CHANGE. In this bonus interview with our personal mentor, Bob Spence, we talk about intentional retirement, ministering in the second half of life, and cultivating a mission, vision, purpose, and core values.

Bob Spence is a contributing author to Chapter 15 of our new book, iRetire4Him: Unlock God’s Purpose for Your Retirement.

Shae Bynes with “Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur” joined the Brangenberg’s today to share her mission of inspiring, teaching, and mentoring entrepreneurs who desire to place God at the head of their businesses in an effort to experience His best!

 In 2010, God called Shae out of a corporate career in tech and led her into the world of entrepreneurship. Over the course of a couple of years, God taught Shae to slow down and change her mindset from constant hustle to a healthy flow of partnering with Him in her work. It was in that place that God revealed His divine plan to start Kingdom Driven Entrepreneur – a community of people who want to make a Kingdom impact with their businesses!

We got to rethink retirement today with Bruce Bruinsma of the ministry, “Retirement Reformation”. It was an eye-popping conversation that will shift your financial thinking in the best way possible. 

When asked what they will do with their retirement, 85% of Christians answer, “nothing”. In America, we have fostered a culture that retirement is essentially a well-deserved rest filled with golf, cruises, and leisure. But God never intended for the wise and experienced among us to sit out on the sidelines. Rather, He wants them to get back in the game of life as coaches and leaders to help raise up the next generation! Bruce formed Retirement Reformation to change the way that people think about retirement. 

Get a glimpse of what it means to retire4Him in this fantastic, faith-filled podcast.

Author, Grant Skeldon, hopped on the airwaves with Jim and Martha today to share his new book, “The Passion Generation”.  This millennial author went in depth on his latest work and shared his thoughts on what his generation REALLY wants.  His musings may surprise you… 

Grant is passionate about not just reaching the next generations but also uniting them. When he was 19-years-old he was asked to serve on the board for a non-profit. While serving, he noticed that there were very few other millennials involved in similar leadership positions… why? His answer: it isn’t a millennial problem, it’s a discipleship problem. We need to stop trying to understand millennials and start engaging with them.
