Is the 7 Essentials Curriculum Making a Difference?"

Join Hal as he interviews David Windley about the impact the 7 Essentials is
making in David's life and ministry  as he leads a 4th Quarter ministry with
EastWest Ministries in Dallas.

I believe God wants to make an impact through the 7 Essentials in every
place. David illustrates this in his life.

In this podcast, Hal and his wife, Vicki, talk about the importance of FINDING

SIGNIFICANCE AS WE AGE

They address these four questions:
1. What happens when you’re no longer a big deal?
2. What happens when you’re no longer the king pin?
3. What happens when you’re no longer the big kahuna?
4. What happens if the world is not waiting with bated breath to know what I’m
doing or what I once did?
In our aging years, do I feel unimportant or even worse, am I even seen, am I just
invisible? How do we see our new significance in our new aging seasons of life?

In this episode, Hal interviews Jerry Wiles on the topic of remarkable book just
published entitled, Simple Relational Disciple Making: Ancient Ways for Modern Times. It is a fascinating book that relates to sharing the Gospel and disciple-making, and how that mission should be part of our lives more and more as we age. This conversation has relevance to everything we do, and it related especially to sharing the stories of God’s work as we invest our lives into generations following us. Listen to the podcast and then order the book.

Order it at Simple, Relational Disciple Making | Jerry Wiles, and you can read more of Jerry’s story there.

This article is also very helpful in knowing Jerry and his mission.” https://lausanne.org/global-analysis/orality-in-the-academy-and-beyond

Last month I had the privilege of being a guest on ‘Saving Grace Podcast,’ a regular podcast produced by Grace School of Theology, Houston, Texas. My interviewer was a good friend, Tracy Marshall, a fellow church member where we attend. It was a great opportunity to share the work of Finishing Well Ministries with their network and the radio network of Salem Radio Network. I hope you will enjoy what God is doing through FWM and the doors He continues to open to us. Thanks, Hal Habecker

How do we live each day in light of God’s grace and love?

God calls us to influence our world with the truth of God’s love, a love that cannot be earned and cannot be lost.  Sharing God’s love with others requires that we first grasp His love for us. Saving Grace provides the listener opportunity to hear inspiring interviews with experts as well as everyday people who love Jesus and want others to know and experience that love and the abundant life Jesus spoke about.

Special guest, Hal Habecker, discusses the aging population and how the church marginalizes their importance.
