Lodge - Marriage Retreat Finishing Well

What comes to your mind when you hear the words, “finishing well”? Perhaps for you, finishing well would be to have your house paid for, or knowing that you would be able to spend the winters in a warmer climate, or just being sure that you have been able to set aside sufficient funds that will last through your retirement. Although these may be important goals, could God have something more in store for you? May I suggest that real success is not merely in winning the race or even crossing the finish line, it is to bring others with you. The Bible says that God blessed the later part of Job’s life more that the first, (Job 42:12) and He can do the same for you. Join us as we look closely at what it really means to “finish well.”

About the speakers - David and Mary Andersen have been partners in life and in ministry for 61 years. Pastor Andersen was pastor at four churches over the span of 31 years. His last church was Troy Baptist Church which later became Woodside Bible Church after it was relocated. After stepping down as pastor, David then founded Envoy International. Its mission is to help local churches become an active and strategic part in God’s plan to reach the world with the Good News of Jesus. David has carried out that mission as he traveled overseas to 55 countries in the last 25 years working on the mission field. He also teaches adult bible study every Sunday at Woodside to over 200 of Woodside’s seniors. Mary has always been an integral part of the ministry working alongside David willing to serve in any capacity needed. She has been invaluable as David’s administrative assistant with a love of serving and gift of hospitality. She uses this gift as co-director of Woodside’s kitchen often serving groups from 20 to 2,000 people. Now the Andersen’s continue to serve at the Lodge as an example of how to “finish well.” The Andersen’s have three grown children, six grandchildren, and three great-grandchildren.
