Download or read book Rethinking Retirement written by John Piper and published by Crossway. This book was released on 2009-03-27 with total page 34 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: John Piper challenges fellow baby boomers to forego the American dream of retirement and live out their golden years with a far greater purpose in mind. They say it's a person's reward for all those years of labor. "Turn in your time card and trade in your IRAs. Let travel plans and golf-course leisure lead the way." But is retirement really the ideal? Or is it a series of poor options that ignore a greater purpose-and will kill a person more quickly than old age? John Piper responds: "Lord, spare me this curse!" And his resounding message is for anyone who believes there's far more to the golden years than accumulating comforts. It's for readers who long to finish better than they started, persevere for the right reasons (and without fear), experience true security, value what lies beyond their cravings, and live dangerously for the One who gave his life in his prime. With this brief book, Piper is sure to spur fellow baby boomers in their resolve to invest themselves in the sacrifices of love -and to grow old with godly zeal.

Download or read book Retirement Roots written by Robert Laura and published by Retirement Project LLC. This book was released on 2014-01-31 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Are you ready to develop a retirement plan that allows you to grow closer to God by preparing for the non-financial aspects of it including the mental, social, physical, and spiritual aspects of life in retirement? It's time to re-envision retirement in terms of salvation instead of savings. We need to expand retirement discussions from the impersonal numbers and dollar signs to you and your overall wellness. I'm talking about preparing your body, mind, and spirit instead of your pocketbook. Fact of the matter is, retirement is often portrayed as the ultimate prize and destination... but it's not. Getting into heaven is. That's a mindset I don't want anyone to realize too late. While the Bible doesn't endorse many of today's retirement ideals, Scripture actually overflows with Gods plan and promises for your retirement. In such a way, that nearly every book of the Bible contains retirement wisdom for those interested in seeking it out and applying it to this season of life. For those who enter retirement unprepared for everything it is, they can look to the story of Abraham who at age 75 was told by God to leave behind his comforts - and everything he knew - for an unknown destination. For others who may have been forced into retirement because of corporate downsizing, a health problem, or other unexpected circumstance, they can learn from Daniel's unwavering faith as he overcame the Lion's Den after being betrayed by his co-workers. Even those who think they are prepared and called by God to take their life in a new direction, can garner retirement lessons from the many trials and tribulations the Apostle Paul faced after Jesus called out to him on the road to Damascus. In each case, the lives of Abraham, Daniel, and Paul all grew brighter as they pursued their faith and their relationship with God. Don't make your retirement journey like that of the Israelite's who wandered around in the wilderness for forty years to make what was actually an eleven-day journey. Use Retirement Roots: A Christian Look At Everyday Life In Retirement to learn how to make your retirement a time of life that is truly everlasting. -Answer the three most powerful retirement questions that will change your life in retirement forever-Use God's promises and direction to replace your career identity and re-invent yourself -Prepare for important conversations that will strengthen your relationships with God, family, and friends-Overcome Satan's temptations and the dark side of retirement-Develop wellness habits and strategies for your body, mind, and spirit -Create a more personal and meaningful Christian Retirement Plan that can improve your everyday life right away Today's realities say it's time to focus more on God's saving grace than your personal savings. Use Retirement Roots to discover the best of what God has in store for you. I assure you, the results will be everlasting.

Download or read book What the Bible Really Says About Money and Giving written by Dr. Michael Davis and published by WestBow Press. This book was released on 2019-12-27 with total page 258 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What does the Bible Say About Money? Author Michael Davis provides answers that will give readers the confidence to view and manage money as God desires and help them understand a biblical definition of stewardship. He shows readers that money is not simply for accumulation and demonstrates that it is a tool to provide for our families and help others in need. He addresses tithing (giving), investing, debt, retirement, and estate planning in the book. The book uses Bible verses about money management and Bible verses about money and greed to teach God’s view of money while providing practical advice on how to utilize money. In addition, you will get answers to the following questions. • Does God want us to have money? • What does the bible say about money and wealth? • What does the bible say about money management? Kirkus Reviews says, “...it should be helpful to Christians who are interested in situating their financial lives with their religious commitments.” And called the book “A persuasive religious treatise with sensible financial advice.” Drawing from decades of experience, the author not only answers, “what does the bible say about money,” but also guides everyday financial decisions. The late Billy Graham once said, “If a person gets their attitude toward money straight, it will help straighten out almost every other area in their life.” This book will help you see that the Bible offers contemporary timely, and wise guidance on using money to serve and bless others while providing for your own needs. It will help change your attitude and view of money, tithing, and even your definition of stewardship. Isn’t it time to stop wondering what the bible says about money?
