MID-SEGMENT GUEST: Derek Carter 

Organization: Focus on the Family – Wait No More 

Part 3 of the 3-Part Series Everyone Can Do Something 

In the final episode of iRetire4Him for 2024, Jim Brangenberg and Bruce Bruinsma invite listeners to reflect on the past year and embrace the opportunities of 2025. They explore how retirees can live intentionally, grow spiritually, and engage outwardly to make a meaningful impact on others. Bruce shares his approach to reflecting on life lessons from both the challenges and joys of 2024, emphasizing the importance of continual learning—even at 83! Together, they discuss how retirees can fight "the grumpies" by focusing less on themselves and more on serving others. 

The episode also features Derek Carter from Focus on the Family, who sheds light on foster care and adoption. Derek shares personal stories about how a supportive community—especially seniors—can make a profound difference in the lives of foster families. He encourages listeners to explore ways to help, even if fostering isn’t their calling. Check out WaitNoMore.org for practical resources and ideas. 

We conclude with actionable ideas for 2025: grow spiritually, reconnect with old friends, and embrace outward-focused opportunities. Whether you’re in the first or final stage of retirement, there’s always something you can do. Join us as we live intentionally and prepare for a fulfilling new year!
