Description

Life insurance can be a wise tool for stewardship, but it should never replace our trust in God's provision. In this video, we explore how to approach life insurance through a biblical lens—seeing it as a temporary safeguard, not our ultimate security.

We'll discuss how to discern the right amount of coverage, avoid over-insuring, and understand the differences between term, whole, and universal policies, all while keeping your hope rooted in Christ.
