Is retirement just about financial security — or is it a new season of purpose? In this episode of The UPside, author Michael Garst shares a biblical perspective on Christian retirement, faith-based legacy planning, and how to use your God-given gifts for lasting Kingdom impact after your career ends.
What if retirement isn’t the finish line… but the launch pad?
So many people spend decades building careers, raising families, and chasing goals — only to quietly wonder, What happens when that season ends? Is retirement simply about comfort and security? Or could it be something far more purposeful?
On this episode of The UPside, I sit down with author Michael Garst to talk about his compelling book, Become Strong, Finish Strong.He challenges the way we typically think about retirement and invites us to consider a deeper question — not “Do I have enough?” but “How will I use whatGod has given me next?” His perspective may surprise you, encourage you, and even shift how you view your future.
And be sure to stay until the end — we’re sharing a free resource filled with Michael’s most powerful insights to help you prayerfully consider your best years ahead.
