Q: Do I really need a will?

A: Yes! Some people think they don’t need a will because they don’t have “enough” or because they assume everything will automatically go to their next of kin. However, when you don’t have a plan, your state will execute its plan for you – and this may not match up with your values and expectations.

By having a will, you ensure your God-given resources continue to be managed well. You’ll document your instructions and priorities, speaking volumes to your family and others about what mattered most to you.

Having a will may also help you to…

• Give to your church and other favorite ministries in substantial ways.

• Minimize family disputes.

• Provide for loved ones with special needs.

• Transfer a family farm or business.

• Avoid probate expenses and delay.
