23 | What is Christian Longevity? Can You Live an Active, Healthy Life Through Old Age?

Hello Jesus People Sisters!

What if the last third of your life were filled with ministry to your family and friends, your brothers and sisters in Christ, and to the lost. You can serve others because you can still walk and stand and travel and do all kinds of activities because you have a sharp mind and strong body. You’re able to play with your grandchildren and even great-grandchildren. What if the last part of your life were the most fruitful part of your life? You’re able to preach and teach and mentor and bless many with your wisdom and life experience. You’re living that abundant life Jesus promised. You are flourishing and continuing to bear fruit in old age. Could this be God’s plan for your life? In this episode, we learn more about Christian longevity with Christian longevity coach and cohost of the Jesus People Sisterhood Podcast, Ellie MacCormick. Let’s make our health span equal our life span!

May this episode bless you!

Ellie and Janine
