How should Christians prepare financially and legally for the end of life? Mark is joined by Tim Gartin, a local attorney and Cornerstone member, to talk about end-of-life financial and legal planning. Tim offers practical and godly wisdom on wills, estates, and stewardship, helping Christians think ahead with faith and responsibility. This conversation reminds us that preparing well isn’t just about ourselves — it’s about caring for our families, stewarding God’s resources, and finishing our race with wisdom and dignity.

This crash course explores five critical areas to deepen our understanding of living and dying well in light of eternity: medical decisions, funeral planning, legacy building, financial preparedness, and spiritual reflection. Taught by Mark Vance with guest panelists.
