Riassunto

Dr. George Sweeting's How to Begin the Christian Life revealed a plan for success in starting new lives of purpose in pursuit of Christ. Now he and his son Donald Sweeting presentHow to Finish the Christian Life, a guide that gives mature believers a new set of disciplines and encouraging truths to help them finish well.

Retirement from a career should never be mistaken for an absence of purpose. On the foundation of his own ministry that continues to thrive, Dr. Sweeting and his son deliver an inspiring message that the end of the believer's journey is not a matter of dying but a challenge to live to the fullest to the glory of God.

When it comes to the life of a true follower of Christ, there is only one way to finish: strong.

Dalla quarta di copertina:

G o t h e Distance and Finish with Your faith intact

The second half of life is not what it used to be. People are living longer, retiring later, and more concerned than ever before about living wisely, effectively, and finishing strong. The question is: how do we do that? Most discipleship books focus on the early years of the Christian life. In How to Finish the Christian Life, the Sweeting father and son duo, two pastors and educators, show what it means to live faithfully, faith in tact to the very end. Don looks forward to-even as George, his father, looks back upon-the years when a believer embraces the service of Christ with renewed focus and gospel hope.
