How to Finish the Christian Life

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.
