Ministry: drjimharris.com

Part 2 of the 3-Part Series Transitions

Let’s keep examining the transitions retirees face and more specifically those related to health changes. Bruce shares a personal story about his wife Judy's recent health concerns and how they’re coping with this unexpected crisis. It highlights the importance of recognizing and preparing for transitions, especially during our retirement years.

Dr. Jim Harris joins the second segment to share his journey of rediscovering purpose in his “4th quarter.” Despite being 71, Jim continues to pursue his calling, writing books and hosting a TV podcast, all with the motive of teaching others to discern God's voice. He encourages seniors to utilize their experiences to mentor younger generations.

Changes are guaranteed to come, but how you deal with them will make all the difference! Keep listening to the iRetire4Him Podcast for practical and spiritual help, and check out the resources at www.RetirementReformation.org

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!
