The sun is setting near the horizon, casting a warm orange and pink glow across the sky and reflecting on the still water surface. Soft clouds scatter across the sky, enhancing the peaceful ambiance. In the distance, dark silhouettes of hills and trees frame the composition, while grasses grow near the shoreline in the foreground.

Welcome to Podcast Season 8 for GraceLife, Faith and Self Defense, Grace Martial Arts, and my Substack Newsletter! I look forward to seeing where God takes us this next year.
We have almost one-thousand podcasts from the previous 7 seasons – along with almost a thousand eBooks and three-thousand articles from our blogs and newsletter. While most of our podcasts come from those articles, I’m planning something different for Season 8. Rather than reading from the full-length articles, I’m going to record shorter podcasts that will be based on some thoughts I have from being an older Christian.
Moses wrote this in Psalm 90:10:
“The days of our lives are seventy years; And if by reason of strength they are eighty years, Yet their boast is only labor and sorrow; For it is soon cut off, and we fly away.”
As I get closer to my 80th birthday, I’m thinking a lot about how I’ve spent my life and what I’ve experienced and learned that would be helpful for the next generation to know. I also look forward to the day when we ‘fly away’ to be with the Lord forever.
It’s been 55 years since I converted from atheism to Christianity, but I still remember clearly what it was like to be delivered from the power of darkness and conveyed into the kingdom of the Son of God’s love (Colossians 1:13). It’s a remarkable transformation that affects God’s children for both this life and for eternity.
So, welcome to Podcast Season 8! I’ll share Episode One soon.
