Online Will & Estate Planning

Transferring the Stewardship of Your Resources (Is this the best title?)

We serve a deeply generous Heavenly Father who has given us everything we need for life and godliness (2 Peter 1:3). And as His children, we strive to emulate His generosity in the way we steward what He’s entrusted to us.

All we have is truly His, and He cares about how we pass it on after He calls us home. That’s why creating a will or trust is so important.

Stewarding Our Resources

God has a lot to say about the rich blessings of family and the importance of caring for them.

Children are a heritage from the LORD, offspring a reward from him.
Psalm 127:3 (NIV)

Honor your father and your mother, so that you may live long in the land the Lord your God is giving you.
Exodus 20:12 (NIV)

He must manage his own family well and see that his children obey him, and he must do so in a manner worthy of full respect.
1 Timothy 3:4 (NIV)

If you were to pass unexpectedly without a will, the state would determine how to allocate your possessions—a process that could take months or even years—and fail to honor your intent for your family and other causes close to your heart. Having a will shows your loved ones that you want them to be cared for. It also ensures that the ministries you hold dear—like your church and the worldwide work of The Alliance—will be a lasting part of your legacy.

Creating a will or trust can seem intimidating, but our team is here to help. Whether you're single, raising a young family, or have a complex estate, our team can help you prepare a will or trust—at little or no cost—that fulfills your unique stewardship objectives. Using our online partner platform, you can create:

  1. A Last Will and Testament

  2. A Revocable Living Trust

  3. A Living Will or Advance Healthcare Directive

  4. Power of Attorney

The platform also enables you to create non-legal documents—like a beneficiary plan or statement of faith—to accompany your will or trust. In many cases, you can create these documents online with little or no assistance; but if you need a little help, our Gift & Estate Design team is here to coach you through any unique circumstances or complications.
