    DIS Conversations: A Fulfilling Journey - Faith, Ageing, and Purpose

    What does it mean to grow old with grace, purpose, and joy? In this second episode of DIS Conversation, we explore the beauty and depth of life’s later seasons. Pastor Ray sits down with Geok Cheng, and Alvin— two individuals whose lives reflect what it truly means to age with purpose, faith, and joy. Listen in as they share heartfelt stories of grandparenting, ministry, health challenges, and spiritual growth in their senior years. From singing Sunday School songs with grandchildren to leading church-wide events after retirement, their journeys are rich with wisdom, vulnerability, and faith. 💬 “Don’t write off the seniors—we haven’t reached our expiry date!”💬 “Ministry is not just programmes—it’s presence, listening, and love.” Whether you're a senior, caring for one, or simply want to understand how to finish life’s race well, this episode will inspire and challenge you. So grab a cup of tea, settle in, and join us as we discover how ageing can be not just endured—but embraced—as a deeply fulfilling journey. ******* DIS Conversation is an insightful podcast by Wesley Methodist Church that explores real-life societal issues through the lens of Christian discipleship.
