  • 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.

    We discuss how authentic friendships and a Christian community enable us to overcome loneliness.

    We share seven ways to make new friends and why you should continually pursue new friendships.

    We present the idea of a Moai, the Okinawan community group, which unites older individuals in a committed support and friendship group.

    As an older single woman, consider starting your own Jesus People Sisterhood community group. Start by joining our online private Facebook group at Jesus People Sisterhood Community. No one has to die alone.

    May this episode bless you!

  • 01 | Welcome to the Jesus People Sisterhood Podcast

    Hello, Sisters in Jesus!

    Welcome to our very first episode! Meet your hosts, Janine Jordan and Ellie MacCormick, and hear why they created the Jesus People Sisterhood Podcast.

    Have you grown weary from the challenges of being an older single, Christian woman?

    Do you have a vision for your life? Do you know who you are and how valuable you are to God? “Where there is no vision, the people perish” (Proverbs 29:18 KJV).

    In today’s episode, we discuss one of the top issues single Christian women over fifty face−loneliness. We also talk about rediscovering life purpose and vision for older women.

    If you’ve been looking for an inspirational Christian community created especially for you, a single Christian woman over fifty, then you’ve found your tribe.

    May this episode bless you!

    Janine and Ellie

  • Welcome to the Jesus People Sisterhood Podcast, where Christian single women aged 50 plus connect.

    Your hosts are Janine Jordan, a Christian Confidence Coach and Leadership Mentor in Alberta, Canada, and Ellie MacCormick, a Christian Longevity Coach and mentor in the USA.

    Being single women over 50, we know what it’s like to feel overlooked, to have unrealized dreams, to experience the challenges of singlehood, and to be concerned about what our future will look like.

    We couldn’t find anything online for single, Christian women over fifty, so we created Jesus People Sisterhood just for you. A place where sisters encourage and empower one another through the last third of life. Because you are a treasure trove of wisdom and of exceedingly great value! This authentic community is a supportive family with other women on the same journey, where Jesus is the center of it all. Here you will find real talk, real community, and real sisters!

    Join us as we discuss: building relationships, whole health, and growing spiritually. We’ll review helpful books and articles, chat with guest speakers, share success stories, and have some laughs along the way. So grab your favorite beverage and we’ll get started.
