Your Enduring Legacy
On April 1, 2025, Baptist Mid-Missions launched a brand-new Legacy Challenge, which calls
Christians to consider the surge of gospel ministry that a planned (or future) gift would create if they would devote it to the Lord’s work. When people plan a gift to ministry, their actions speak of obedience to the Great Commission, and of their faith in the promise of Jesus to build His church.We know Jesus’ words:
“Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth ... but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven … For where your treasure is there your heart will be also.”
—Matthew 6:19-21
Easy to understand, but how does a legacy challenge help you obey Jesus’ instruction?
One distinct way is in wisely planning bequest gifts to your local church and to ministries like Baptist Mid-Missions that are daily focused on reaching the souls for whom Christ died. While we typically consider our regular income when supporting our churches and other ministries, a legacy challenge calls us to consider our total wealth when planning gifts to accelerate the gospel beyond our lifetime. These gifts could be by a bequest in a will, a beneficiary designation, gifts of stock or real estate, a charitable gift annuity, and so much more.
How does a Legacy Challenge work? It’s easy:
- You Declare your legacy gift by simply contacting BMM. Give us a call!
- You Document your intent by completing our giving form. We’ll guide you!
- You Direct a $500 bonus to one of four crucial efforts at BMM. Blessings today!
- You Drive the work of the gospel into the future. Blessings tomorrow!
You have a vital part to play in the spread of the gospel. Like you, many brothers and sisters in Christ are pursuing the call to balanced biblical generosity: giving now to meet ministry needs, and planning gifts to impact eternity.
BMM’s Stewardship department stands ready to help you maximize your legacy impact. The Legacy Challenge runs now through March 31, 2026. Learn more at https://giftplanning.bmm.org/l...
