AFTERWORK BOOK STUDY (Retiring with Purpose)

Are you retired or contemplating retirement? Join a group of people in this same stage of life who desire to "have a future worthy of dreams" as we study together the 10 key disciplines that help us have a purposeful and meaningful retirement. We will study together the book by Joel Malick and Alex Lippert entitled Afterwork. I am confident you will find this book useful and easy to read and the discussions will prove to robust and full of ideas. 

This is an 8-week study.  The book Afterwork can be purchased for $10 and is available for pickup at the church.  Please contact Missy Collins | missyc@cccomaha.org to make arrangements.

As a follow-up to our recent Grandparenting Matters seminar, we will begin a series of ongoing 6-week classes. This is the FIRST in a series called Equipping Intentional Grandparents and will focus on Grandparenting Essentials.

Consider the Conversation

As people are living longer, many of us find ourselves engaging in our parents’ lives in ways we never imagined. It can be challenging to have conversations about end-of-life wishes, financial ramifications of end-of-life choices, long-term living expectations, and even what aging parents expect from adult children when they need physical help.

PANEL DISCUSSION

A panel discussion was held which feature three experts from our community discussing how to make end-of-life plans with our aging parents. The panel was moderated by Scott Kubie, President of Orchard Alliance. Each of the presenters brought important information to the discussion to help us more fully engage in the best possible ways in the lives of our aging parents.

As an older adult, you have wisdom and experience that could be of great value to someone younger than yourself. Discipleship Conversations connects two people from different generations to spend six one-hour sessions together to discuss the significant issues of life. As the leader, you will take a ninety-minute training course to prepare you to carry on the conversations and provide quality wisdom and experience to a younger person desiring to grow and develop in their faith. You could be the catalyst for spiritual growth in the lives of our younger generations.

I want to lead a conversation with a person from a younger generation.

Would you find value in engaging with someone older than yourself to discuss the important things in your life? Discipleship Conversations connects two people from different generations to engage in conversation for six one-hour sessions. The goal is for wisdom to be shared and discussions to be had, leading to greater mutual respect and understanding and, oftentimes, spiritual growth to take place. You will have someone to spend time invested in your growth and development in areas that are important to you.

I want to participate in a conversation with a person from an older generation.
