Your Legacy Is Being Written Right Now — And You Might Not Like What It Says

Somebody Is Inheriting You.

Not your name. Not your money. Not your house. Your faith — or your faithlessness. Your walk with God — or your distance from Him.

In Genesis 5, Moses gives us a genealogy most people skip. Names, ages, death notices. But buried inside this chapter is one of the most confrontational truths in all of Scripture: Your life is becoming someone else’s inheritance.

In this message, Pastor Douglas Humphrey walks verse by verse through Genesis 5 and unpacks four facts every believer needs to wrestle with regarding the spiritual legacy they are building right now:

  • Everyone starts with equal worth and value (vv. 1–3)
  • Death locks in your legacy (vv. 5–31)
  • Your walk with God can change the direction of your family line (vv. 22–24)
  • Your faith is planting seeds that future generations will harvest (vv. 28–29)
