To Be Continued . . .: Women, Ministry, and Retirement (Paperback) by Lauren Hodgson, Joann Streeter Shade

To Be Continued . . . Women, Ministry, and Retirement is a generous invitation for women in ministry to intentionally consider the path forward when the door to retirement swings open. After years of responding obediently to the guidance of the various ministry organizations they've served, women are faced with a more self-determined future as their time of service concludes, bringing both anxiety and opportunity. These pages provide space for the questions that come as women contemplate retirement: Where have I been? Where am I going? What will the next phase of my life look like? Who will I become? Its two recently retired pastor-authors share from their own experiences, drawing upon the counsel of scripture and the wisdom of many voices as they address the transitions and adventures that come with retirement from ministry.
