MID-SEGMENT GUESTS: Jennifer Mann
Ministry: Caregiving, chaplaincy
Part 1 of the 3-Part Series Why Old People are Grumpy
In episode 109 of the iRetire4Him Podcast, Jim and Bruce explore the seemingly simple question - “why are old people grumpy?” As you’ll hear in the show, grumpiness in retirees can be attributed to all sorts of things, including resistance to change, aches and pains, and the occasional memory slip. Bruce comically shares his own back pain ailments, turning him into a less-than-enthusiastic retiree.
The middle segment features a lively chat with Jennifer Mann, who shares her unexpected journey from finance to starting seminary (at age 58!), finding newfound purpose through caregiving. Amidst the grumpy conversation, Bruce introduces his upcoming book, Living the Fruitful Life, a guide to combat grumpiness with the Holy Spirit's help and apply the fruits of the Spirit to life's challenges. If you find yourself feeling grumpy these days, be sure to give this episode a listen and join us for the rest of the series!
