11 | How the Top Five Regrets of the Dying Can Bless the Living
Hello Jesus People Sisters!
In this episode, Janine and Ellie discuss the top five regrets of the dying. Bronnie Ware, an Australian author, did palliative care for years taking care of patients at the end of their lives. Her book, The Top Five Regrets of the Dying: A Life Transformed by the Dearly Departing, sets the stage for today’s episode. We’ll discuss what those top five regrets are and how knowing them can bless your life. Not only can you avoid those regrets, but you will be inspired to live your life to the fullest now.
Are you racing through your life? Days go by and you don’t remember what you did and/or don’t feel like you’ve accomplished anything. Have you been a good steward of the one life you’ve been given? Most of us are living on autopilot. It isn’t until we are faced with death that we realize the time we wasted and opportunities we’ve missed.
This is of particular interest to our community because we are older and closer to the end of our lives. The enemy distracts us from examining how we are living our lives and many of us realize too late that we didn’t live our lives to the fullest. Knowing the top regrets of the dying can help us to examine how we are currently living our lives and make the necessary changes so we can live a life without those regrets.
We are called to number our days and be good stewards of the one and only life we’ve been given. Let’s intentionally live for Jesus first. We encourage you to examine your life now while you still have time and make changes so that you can live a life without regret. So that you can fulfill God’s calling on your life and complete the assignments He’s given you.
May this episode bless you!

07 | Neuroplasticity: You Are Never Too Old to Learn New Things Part 2
Hello Jesus People Sisters!
In this episode, we continue our discussion on neuroplasticity and why it’s so important. Despite what many people believe, you are never too old to learn new things. Your brain is an amazing creation of God and has the ability to help you transform your life. What if the last third of your life could be your most productive and happy?
Sisters, it’s time to wake up. Do you want to stay stuck in your rut or finish strong? Do you want to do a slow slide into heaven or do you want to meet Jesus knowing you have given your all and fulfilled your calling? You only get one life.
Use it or lose it. Your brain is aging and your cognitive abilities will deteriorate as well. Unless . . . you purposely start pursuing a healthy brain and a healthy lifestyle. Listen to this episode to find out how.
May this episode bless you!
