Episode 179 - The Four Seasons of Legacy Building - Lesson 1

Get out your journal and get ready for lesson four in our Bible study, The Tale of Two Legacies. In this episode we’ll start the process of identifying what “season” of life we’re in and how we can craft the narratives that will help us build a legacy of faith in this season.

What 2 Listen 4 in this lesson:

In this lesson we’re going to learn the basics about the four seasons of legacy building and discover the stories (narratives) of your season. Before you start, download the image of the tree of seasons in the show notes or right click on the image below. We will refer to it in the podcast.

• Discover the season of life that defines where you’re at right now.
• Each season has unique narratives that help us build a legacy during that season. More on the how-to in lesson five.
• The seasons:
  • Spring: ages 25-40*. New, exuberant life. These are the leaves on the far left of our tree of seasons.
  • Summer: ages 41-54*. The season of strength and growth. The leaves are green and sturdy.
  • Fall: ages 55-75*. This season is normally a season of transition and change– the one with the most vibrant colors of life.
  • Winter: ages 76-plus*. This is a strong season of stored energy essential for the regeneration of seasons in the spring. The most challenging season of legacy building.

*seasonal ages can vary a few years on either side
