The Legacy That Actually Matters - SFT

Welcome to Spiritually Fit Today with Arnie Cole and guest Wayne Pederson. In this episode they explore finishing well, the legacy we leave, and why what people remember at the end of life is a life of faith and love for God—not possessions. Wayne shares practical examples from his life and urges that it’s never too late to invest in people and to make faith the central legacy. Memory verse: 2 Timothy 4:7 — “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith.” Four R action steps Read — Read 2 Timothy 4:7 and the surrounding passage. Let the apostle Paul’s finish-line perspective shape your priorities. Reflect — Ask: What do I want said at my funeral? What legacy am I building now? Who needs my influence or reconciliation? Where is God calling me to invest my remaining years? Respond — Practical next steps: write a brief life story or letter for family, call or send an encouraging note to a younger person, schedule a meaningful conversation, recommit your life to Christ if you haven’t, join a small group or begin mentoring. Reveal — Share your story and faith with one person this week, give a tangible keepsake (letter, memoir, recorded testimony), or model Christlike love in a public way so others see and are drawn to Jesus.
