When it comes to insurance, which beneficiary do you want to be—primary or secondary?
Evelyn wrote to our ministry concerned about her husband’s life insurance. He had one policy for his kids and another for her and her children, and that felt odd to her. I suggested he was wise to arrange for money to be passed on to each. “And,” I said, “Don’t get caught up in ‘primary’ or ‘secondary’ language. That’s really not a measurement of your value to your husband. The question should be is he taking care of you and the kids? The good news,” I told her, “It sounds like he is.”
