Ep 89: Vibrant Ministry After Retirement Age, with Lisa Northway

Retirement isn’t what it used to be. In the U.S. military, retirement is mandatory at 62 years of age, but U.S. Army Garrison Chaplain (MAJ) Lisa A. Northway is an exception to that. Lisa, who’s currently stationed in Fort Sill, OK, has been called the “Grandma Moses” of the Army Chaplaincy. She recently received permission to extend her chaplaincy for a few more years.

In this podcast, Karl Vaters talks with Lisa about how to have vibrant ministry past retirement age, including

• The value of long-term experience in today’s ministry environment
• How to pace yourself for the long-term
• How not to block the way for younger ministers
• How to mentor younger ministers
