What does the Bible say about legacy?
When we think of “legacy,” we often think of money or property we leave to our children and grandchildren. But a true legacy is much more than that. It’s the values we instill in our children, the faith we pass down, and the impact we have on the world around us.
It’s about living intentionally and building something that will last long after we’re gone.
The Bible doesn’t use the word “legacy” very often, but the concept of inheritance and heritage is all over the place. From the Old Testament stories of fathers passing down their blessings to their sons to the New Testament emphasis on discipleship, the Bible is clear: We are called to pass on our values and our faith to the next generation.
In this article, we’ll explore some key scripture on legacy to give you a better understanding of what God wants for you and your family. We will also explore some practical steps you can take to build a legacy that will honor God and bless your family for generations to come.
