Not Too Early, Not Too Late: Life After Retirement

NOT TOO EARLY, NOT TOO LATE: Life After Retirement- Legacy Edition is a third and more updated edition with bonus resources available on the life and works of the author through Legacy Ministries Association, Inc. This most recent and final edition is a biblical and practical approach to retirement in pastoral ministry. Pastor Emeritus J. C. Wade, Jr’s blueprint for retirement encompasses the challenges of entering pastoral leadership, to the difficulties of retiring from it. Stepping aside for the stability and growth of the church is an admirable choice. The author prolifically teaches us from a spiritual and anointed standpoint that life does not end with retirement. Instead, it begins a new chapter.

With almost 60 years of experience, the author ignites pastors to turn the challenges of retiring from pastoral ministry into opportunities. Not Too Early, Not Too Late gives practical guidelines for retirement. In addition, the author provides a plethora of resources, wisdom, biblical incentives, and spiritual inspiration to encourage seasoned pastors to know that retirement in pastoral ministry does not imply resignation in Kingdom ministry. This profound work teaches the reader that retirement only means reassignment.

Not Too Early, Not Too Late also has practical wisdom for wives who must be considered and cherished in the transition process. Within this thoughtful work, testimonies, truths, and wisdom are also gleaned from Dr. Wade’s wise and worshipful wife, Ella Wade.
