169: You Might Be Funding Things You Don’t Believe In

Featuring: Luke Andrews  Ministry: <a href="https://www.InvestBRI.com">Inspire Advisors</a>  Most retirees spend a lot of time asking, Will I have enough? But what if there's another question worth asking: Is my money making an eternal impact?  In this episode of iRetire4Him, Jim and Martha Brangenberg welcome Luke Andrews of Inspire Advisors for a practical conversation about Biblically Responsible Investing (BRI). Luke shares how many Christians unknowingly own investments that support causes and values they don't agree with – and how it's possible to align your portfolio with your faith without sacrificing sound financial planning.  More than just a discussion about investments, this episode explores what it means to view retirement as a season of purpose. Instead of simply preserving wealth, retirees have an opportunity to steward their resources in ways that support God's work and leave a lasting legacy.  What You'll Hear in This Episode  <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Why retirement planning should include both financial security and kingdom impact </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="2" data-aria-level="1">What Biblically Responsible Investing is and why it matters </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="3" data-aria-level="1">How to evaluate whether your current investments align with your values </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="4" data-aria-level="1">The influence Christian investors can have when they steward their resources intentionally </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="5" data-aria-level="1">How shareholder engagement can help shape corporate decisions </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="6" data-aria-level="1">Practical steps for transitioning a portfolio toward biblical alignment </li> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="8" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559683":0,"335559684":-2,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="7" data-aria-level="1">Ways retirees can use their financial resources to support ministry, generosity, and future generations </li> </ul>   If you have questions about Biblically Responsible Investing or would like to explore what it could look like for your own portfolio, connect with Luke Andrews at <a href="https://www.InvestBRI.com">InvestBRI.com</a> or by calling 727-798-4188. He'd be happy to help you take the next step!  P.S. Don't forget our Summer Picnic Challenge!

168: A Starting Point for Your Retirement Ministry

Featuring: Jim & Martha Brangenberg  Ministry: <a href="https://www.iwork4him.com/">iWork4Him</a> & <a href="https://www.iretire4him.com/">iRetire4Him</a>  What if a simple summer picnic could change our country?  In this lively episode, Jim and Martha Brangenberg launch a summer challenge for listeners: host a neighborhood picnic. They share personal stories, practical hospitality ideas, and a biblical reminder that loving your neighbor often starts with simply spending time together.  The conversation highlights how modern life has isolated many people from those living right next door and how food, fellowship, and intentional connection can begin changing that. Jim and Martha also offer easy, low-pressure ideas for hosting a casual gathering that helps neighbors feel seen, welcomed, and loved.  What You’ll Hear:  <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext=""

167: Building a Movement of Purpose-Driven Retirees

FEATURING: Barak Strickland  ORGANIZATION: <a href="https://refirenation.org/">Refire Nation</a>  What happens when you change one letter in a word? You get Barak Strickland’s “retire to refire” God-given mission.   After retiring from a 40-year career in the Air Force, Barak thought he was entering a quieter season of life. Instead, God used unexpected transitions to spark something entirely new: Refire Nation – a community helping retirees rediscover meaning, service, and spiritual flourishing.  Barak shares how retirees at his local church went from uncertainty and frustration to renewed joy and clarity through the “Flourish” experience, rooted in Psalm 92 and focused on helping people bear fruit in every season of life. The conversation is filled with encouragement for anyone wondering if their most impactful years may still be ahead.  What you’ll hear in this episode:  <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="1" data-aria-level="1">Why Barak believes “retirement is temporary, but refirement is forevermore” </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="2" data-aria-level="1">How God used unexpected life changes to open new ministry opportunities </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="3" data-aria-level="1">The powerful transformation happening through the Flourish groups </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="4" data-aria-level="1">Why retirees are wired for purpose, not perpetual leisure </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="5" data-aria-level="1">How Refire Nation is helping people connect, learn, and serve </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="6" data-aria-level="1">Details about the national neighborhood picnic challenge </li> </ul> <ul> <li aria-setsize="-1" data-leveltext="" data-font="Symbol" data-listid="51" data-list-defn-props="{"335552541":1,"335559685":720,"335559991":360,"469769226":"Symbol","469769242":[8226],"469777803":"left","469777804":"","469777815":"hybridMultilevel"}" data-aria-posinset="7" data-aria-level="1">Opportunities to get involved with Refire Nation </li> </ul>   You’ll also hear Jim launch the iRetire4Him Summer Picnic Initiative: a simple but powerful challenge to invite neighbors over, build real relationships, and create community right where you live.
