As stewards of God's entrusted property, our sacred trust involves managing assets during our lifetime and their distribution at death, shaping our spiritual lifestyles. Stewardship means using God-given abilities for managing His properties to achieve His ordained results. Thus, every financial decision, including property distribution at death, becomes a spiritual decision.
 
For Christians, estate planning extends beyond physical management of possessions. It acknowledges an ongoing responsibility to God even after incapacity or death. The key in estate design is seeking God's plan of stewardship since we are stewards, not owners, of His property.
 
Attorney "Gheri" Hicks emphasizes that proper planning is essential for executing an estate plan. Without it, God's entrusted property may be managed and distributed according to state law, overlooking Christian values and responsibilities.
