FINISHING WELL

141 episodes - English - Latest episode: 5 days ago - ★★★★★ - 5 ratings

The podcast will touch upon many subjects related to aging, senior life, church life, scripture and God’s plan for us. Most podcasts will involve discussion between Hal and Randy, sometimes including interviews with each other or with other guests. It is Hal and Randy’s fervent desire that by sharing and exploring God’s plan for older citizens in this podcast, seniors will gain a better understanding of ways they can finish well. It is also our hope that seniors will thereby find greater joy in their lives than they had ever imagined for their aging years.We will endeavor to help the listener understand the role he or she already has as a senior seeking to finish well. We will also strive to illustrate how the finishing well track can fill a void too many of us feel about our worth, our value and our purpose in our aging years. If we are able to clarify the message we know the Lord wants all of us to grasp, we hope the listener will find a renewed sense of purpose, meaning and joy in his or her life every day.

Episode S3E19 (123): Prodigals – What’s a Parent to Do?

April 18, 2024 18:00 - 30 minutes - 20.8 MB

“While the 4th Essential deals with investing in generations that follow us, we discover that there are choices  younger people may make that are contrary to their parents’ values. While independence from parents is expected and planned (we raise our kids for independence), sometimes younger people outwardly reject the values of church and family.

Part two of our series focuses on the nuances of offering advice to adult children and the potential pitfalls that can drive a wedge in these relationships.

January 16, 2024 23:00 - 27 minutes - 19 MB

There are any number of spheres through which God can use us to make a difference in His kingdom. We can envision this truth through a series of concentric circles – begin with knowing yourself and discover anew how God is calling and leading you to serve and encourage other in the following areas of life -  spouse, family, friends and neighbors, and church. Then there may be various volunteer agencies, mission agencies, and local/world needs where God may be leading you to serve. We believe...

Episode S3E12 (116): Learning to Let Go in the Aging Years

January 16, 2024 23:00 - 25 minutes - 17.6 MB

There are so many things to think about in the topic of “Aging.” We want to address one of those aspects today – the aspect of “Letting go.” Aging teaches us know what it means to let go – “letting go” is a new season of learning – aging teaches us about limits – life changes - churches ought to have active plans to be with and encourage those who are learning to let go as life changes/narrow – as we age. We’ve been learning about this ever since our kids grew up and left our homes. Change i...

Episode E7S3 (111): The 2nd Essential: We will Connect with others.

December 15, 2023 20:00 - 23 minutes - 16.1 MB

The 2nd Essential is “Being Connected.” We will CONNECT – we will not live alone – we will continue to build strong friendships – we will stay connected and encourage each other. Friendships make all the difference. While the aging process often leads to isolation and greater loneliness, staying connect with growing friendships makes a tremendous difference in life. That is God’s design for friendships.  Email us: [email protected] Follow us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.c...

Our 1st of the 7 Essentials is GROWTH. We Will GROW – we will not stay the same. Growth is the underpinning of nearly everything in life. Growth is always life-giving.

Episode E10S3: Living with Chaos/Messiness at Christmas

December 15, 2023 20:00 - 24 minutes - 17.2 MB

Finishing Well during the Christmas season may not be “picture perfect.” While we will send and receive countless Christmas cards with pictures of our families that are “picture perfect,” real life is often somewhat chaotic. The 3 or 4 generations in our families will have differing agendas. How do we as the patriarchs and matriarchs listen to and enjoy those who may be totally different in various ways.  How do we love? How do we listen? How do we influence? How do we encourage? Let’s cont...

Episode E9S3: Thinking Outloud about Grief at Christmas

December 15, 2023 20:00 - 28 minutes - 19.3 MB

Grief may often be a part of the Christmas season. The loss of a spouse, a family member, the disappointments and loss of friends and relationships, illnesses, hospitalizations, and other various life changes will detract from the joy of the season. Grief is real and is a part of life (Ecclesiastes 3.4). Even if the grief is not your grief personally, you will probably be with others during this season who grieve. We pray that these thoughts will be helpful. Email us: Hal@finishingwellminis...

Episode E5S3 (109): The 4th Essential: We will Invest in the generations following us

December 14, 2023 15:00 - 32 minutes - 22.3 MB

In general, the Bible speaks of generations as 3 generations at a time – Abrahm, Isaac, and Jacob Deuteronomy 6.2-9 – fathers, sons, and grandsons – and then perhaps great and great, great grandchildren as God allows. God has us here for those purposes – to teach, lead, mentor future generations. God calls us to the same multi-generational tasks wherever He takes us – church, schools, community involvement, wherever He leads. Email us: [email protected] Follow us on Facebook...

Episode E6S3 (110): The 3rd Essential: We will care for and love others

December 14, 2023 15:00 - 30 minutes - 20.8 MB

Christ went above and beyond in His great love for us and therefore calls us to give away our lives for others around us. This could be our families, people in our communities, even the most unexpected people He may bring into our lives that aren't like us. This is the distinguishing mark of the Church in the world and God is calling us to be those kinds of people. We are to be His arms and His hands to those in need as we go through life, beginning in our homes. Email us: Hal@finishingwell...

Introduction to the Seven Essentials for Finishing Well

November 28, 2023 16:00 - 6 minutes - 4.63 MB

This is the introduction to a 7 Part Series on the Seven Essentials for Finishing Well.  You know, our desire as older people is to change the narrative of our lives. Our culture says we're finished, we're retired, we're over the hill. But I don't believe that we're here as Christians to make a greater difference for Christ. Throughout our remaining years. We want to use all that God has poured into our lives and leave a legacy that will strengthen the work of Christ for generations to come...

Episode E4S3: The 5th Essential: We Will Be Available as God Calls Us to Serve

October 03, 2023 19:00 - 24 minutes - 17.1 MB

One of the joys of aging is that God has new purposes and experiences for us every day that we live. Whether it is new people or friends we already know, each day brings new opportunities to get “out of ourselves and love others.” Perhaps its and encouraging word, taking time to listen, a simple act of service, or a new project never before considered, God leads us and He calls us to be available to serve His purposes in life.

Episode E3S3: The 6th Essential: We Will Plan Ahead for When We Will Not Be Here

October 03, 2023 19:00 - 30 minutes - 21.3 MB

In this 6th Essential we think towards what wisdom would teach us as we anticipate nearing the final season of our life. Wisdom would tell us that we should plan ahead for when we will not be here. In practical terms, what does that mean for us personally, for our families, together with all that God has entrusted to us through the years He has entrusted to us?

September 11, 2023 14:00 - 29 minutes - 20 MB

As Christians heaven is our destiny. Even though we do not take enough time to think about and/or prepare for it, in a very real sense heaven is the answer to everything. Looking at all of life through the lens of eternity and heaven ought to make all the difference as to how we live our lives today. We’ll look at biblical truths and we’ll make practical applications concerning the impact of heaven on our lives and the choices we make. Email us: [email protected] Follow us on ...

September 11, 2023 14:00 - 29 minutes - 20.5 MB

In our 7 Essentials series, we complete the series with heaven. But shouldn’t we consider our starting point with the end in view? There is a sense in which the 7th Essential informs each of the previous 6 Essentials. So, let’s begin our review of the 7 Essentials with trying to imagine what heaven might be like and trying to image our new relationship with our heavenly Father. We’ll focus some time reimaging our first day in heaven. Email us: [email protected] Follow us on Fa...

August 14, 2023 14:00 - 30 minutes - 21 MB

Hal’s wife, Vicki, shares her heart about the importance of “Identity” in all of life, and particularly, in the aging years. Perhaps nothing is as important in life than knowing who God created us to be and to see ourselves as He sees us through the life and death of His Son, Jesus. Satan attempts to pull us away from that incredible truth by tempting us to see our value through what we do. Vicki speaks out of her own heart to women, but the truth of her heart speaks to men as well. Let’s pr...
