SPECIAL MID-SHOW GUEST: Frances Gregory Patch 

The concept and reality of retirement in the US is a rare social construct. The ability and the assumed right to be non-productive and still retain full social status in society is an American thing. Work is a way of providing for life expenses and retirement. The American perspective is that leisure is the extended right that should be available for all and supported by society. Each person in uniquely responsible for managing their retirement years. While retirement is represented to be a time divorced from financial and social stress, it is in fact the most complex time of life and is reported to be “not for sissies”. For the Christian, it is an even more complex time and Christ followers are impacted by the culture and challenged by Jesus commands.  Today we start a series exploring cultures impact on how we live in retirement compared to the Christian world view of living in retirement. We will be releasing this podcast series every other week. When we do, we will give you what you need to know and how we can respond as Christ followers who affirm a lifestyle of iRetire4Him.  Here to work through the cultural impacts on retirement is  Bruce Bruinsma with www.RetirementReformation.org.
