Welcome to Surge’s Faith, Work, and Rest podcast. Our goal is to help God’s people discern their vocations and re-imagine their occupations for the good of their neighbors and the glory of God.

In this episode, we listen to a podcast episode from our friends at the Denver Institute for Faith and Work interview Jeff Haanen about a nuanced, Biblical, view of retirement.

Jeff Haanen is the Founder of Denver Institute for Faith & Work and the 5280 Fellowship. He contributes to various magazines and publications, including Christianity Today. He has previously served as a school administrator, a pastor and missionary. He holds a B.A. in International Economics and Spanish from Valparaiso University and a Master of Divinity from Denver Seminary. Jeff attends Littleton Christian Church with his wife and four daughters.

Jeff has written for The Ethics & Religious Liberty Commission, The Gospel Coalition, and Christianity Today.

We encourage you to buy Jeff Haanan's wonderful book An Uncommon Guide to Retirement: Finding God's Purpose For the Next Season of Life. We highly recommend Hearts and Minds Bookstore as your source for good books like this.
