Estate Planning & Leaving a Legacy

In this episode of our Faithfully Funded series, we explore estate planning and the deeper meaning of leaving a legacy. It’s not just about money — it’s about raising the next generation to be wise stewards, including them in decisions, and modeling faith-filled generosity.We define what estate planning and legacy truly mean, and discuss the spiritual side of legacy — how our choices, values, and guidance can impact our children and grandchildren for years to come. This episode offers practical insights for creating plans that honor God, protect your family, and leave a lasting mark on both hearts and resources.Biblical Rooting: Proverbs 13:22 — “A good person leaves an inheritance for their children’s children, but a sinner’s wealth is stored up for the righteous.”Show Resources:The Bible (NET Version)The Two Sides of Every Dollar, (Miller) https://tinyurl.com/MMillerAmazonGod & Money, (Cortines & Baumer)All the Teachings of Jesus, (Lockyer)Managing God's Money, (Alcorn)Neither Poverty Nor Riches (Blomberg)Simple Money, Rich Life (Lotich)Money, Possessions, and Eternity (Alcorn)The Good and Beautiful God, (Smith)Margin, (Swenson)(Please note: We may share links to external resources for your convenience.
