   On his many caravan rides along the trading route between
   Syria and Arabia, a merchant named Muhammad observed people of

                    PLEASE DON’T RETIRE
We’ve got a dangerous practice in America called "retirement." It’s a blessing in some ways, but it’s also dangerous because it implies that your productivity stops when you get to be 62 or 65. It’s dangerous in the church because people look forward to retiring so they can get
