Relevant Radio Can Help You Create Your Will For Free! (The Drew Mariani Show)

from The Best of the Week · host Relevant Radio

Okay, y’all, let’s get real about Catholic adulting. On a recent episode of The Drew Mariani Show, Drew sat down with Preston Allex, Relevant Radio’s CFO, to chat about something we all love to procrastinate on: making a will.    🔑 The Big Idea   Relevant Radio has created CatholicLegacy.com, a totally FREE platform to help you create a will. That’s right: zero dollars, no strings attached. It’s a user-friendly way to:   Decide where your stuff goes (money, car, Rosary collection, etc.).   Give your family the ability to handle your affairs (bank accounts, subscriptions: yes, even your Netflix).   Include Catholic-specific provisions like funeral plans, Mass intentions, and healthcare directives.   Preston and Drew emphasized this is about loving your family. A will isn’t just paperwork; it’s a gift to the people you leave behind. 💌   🚨 Why This Matters (Like, Now)   Life is unpredictable: We don’t know the day or the hour. Drew shared a tragic story of a family who didn’t have a will, leaving their child to navigate legal chaos after their death.   Most people don’t have a will: Up to 68% of Americans haven’t made one. And no, being young or broke isn’t an excuse. If you’ve got anything: even a car or a dog, you need a plan.   💡 Why Catholic Legacy Rocks   Unlike a generic will template or an expensive lawyer, CatholicLegacy.com is tailored for us as Catholics:   Mass Requests: You can include a fund for Masses to be said for your soul after you die. (Hello, Gregorian Masses! 🙏)   Catholic Teachings: The platform includes resources for end-of-life decisions, funeral planning, and healthcare directives: all aligned with Church teaching.   Simplicity: It’s a straightforward Q&A process, and you can print it out, notarize it, and boom, you’re good to go.   Key Takeaways   It’s not just about you. Having a will prevents your loved ones from going through legal headaches during a tough time.   Your faith matters. This platform lets you keep your legacy rooted in your Catholic values.   No excuses. It’s free. It’s easy. And it takes way less time than binge-watching your favorite show.   ✨ A Little Catholic Motivation   Updating your will is like updating your spiritual life: it grows with you. Got married? Had kids? Gained assets? Make sure your will reflects your current life and priorities. Oh, and you can even leave a bequest to charity. (Father Rocky suggests Relevant Radio… just sayin’. 😉)   Action Steps   ✅ Visit CatholicLegacy.com and get started. ✅ Make it a New Year’s resolution to finish this by the end of the week. ✅ Share this resource with someone who needs a little push (we all have that friend).   👋 Final Thoughts   This isn’t about being morbid or overly serious. It’s about living with intention and leaving a legacy of faith and love. Plus, Preston reminded us how easy this can be, with tools like Catholic Legacy, there’s really no reason to wait.   So, go ahead and adult like a pro. Get your will done, and make sure your Catholic values live on long after you do. 🕊️     The best way to listen to the Best of the Week is on our #1 Free Catholic App. It’s free, and always will be!
