What is the difference between faithfully waiting on God and quietly avoiding the next thing He has already asked you to do?
In this episode of The Age of Lions, Mark sits down again with leadership coach and Be Far More founder Richard Mobley for a powerful conversation about passivity, purpose, and the danger of getting stuck. Together, they unpack the tension many believers feel between trusting God and actually taking action—especially in the second half of life.
Richard shares practical wisdom on why so many people stop pedaling, coast too soon, or wait for permission when God may already be saying, “Do something.” They talk about fear, fatigue, caution, mindset, identity, and the real cost of waiting—not just for us, but for the people who may be missing the gift we are meant to give.
If you have ever felt stuck, uncertain, or tempted to believe your best impact is behind you, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to move. Aging with purpose requires more than good intentions. It takes faith, obedience, and the courage to take the next step.
This is a timely episode for anyone 50+ who wants to keep growing, keep leading, and keep saying yes to what God still has ahead.
