A New Release: Retirement Done Right

What if retirement planning wasn’t just about numbers—but about clarity, confidence, and stewardship for the years ahead? We’re excited to introduce Retirement Done Right: Biblical Wisdom and Proven Strategies for a Secure Future, a new book from John-Mark Young, CFP®. Written for those who have been faithful in saving and preparing, this book brings together practical financial planning and a biblical perspective to help you navigate one of life’s most important transitions. To celebrate the release, we’re hosting a special live conversation where John-Mark will share key ideas from the book, provide additional context around some of its most important concepts, and answer your questions. After years of working with families approaching and living in retirement, John-Mark saw a common pattern—many people have done the right things financially, but still lack a clear, coordinated plan for what comes next. This book was written to bridge that gap. Inside Retirement Done Right, you’ll gain insight into: • How to turn your savings into a reliable and sustainable retirement income • The hidden tax challenges that can impact your long-term plan—and how to prepare for them • Key Social Security decisions that can significantly affect your future income • A faith-based perspective that replaces fear with thoughtful, disciplined decision-making • Practical strategies that many retirees don’t realize are available to them This isn’t theory—it’s a guide built on real-world experience, designed to help you move from having pieces of a plan to having a clear path forward. Whether you’re within 5–10 years of retirement or already there, this is an opportunity to gain clarity, ask questions, and walk away with practical next steps.
