Every life is a story worth telling well—and a legacy worth preparing with care.

Work with Elizabeth

Your legacy matters. The only question is, how will you share it?

Did you know you have two kinds of legacy shaping your life?

Your Spiritual and Story Legacy — the faith, values, wisdom, and stories you are living today and will pass on to those you love.

Your Practical Legacy — the essential documents, decisions, and information your family will need when it matters most.

“Elizabeth’s teaching has reframed my thinking — definitely about heaven and eternity, but also about the problems of any given day in this life.”

MEET ELIZABETH

Hi, I’m Dr. Elizabeth Turnage

I’ve been helping people live, prepare, and share their living story legacy for over three decades.

In recent years, as caregiver to my father when he had terminal cancer and executor of my mother’s estate after she died unexpectedly, I have become passionate about helping people think intentionally about living and sharing the legacy we want to leave.

As wife for over 43 years, mother to four aged 31-37, mother-in-law to 4, and grandmother to 6, I want to bless those I will someday leave behind, both now and in the future. I love coaching people as they prepare their spiritual legacy.

 If you want to leave a legacy that blesses your loved ones and you struggle to be intentional about preparing your legacy materials, I can help you.

Preparing for Glory

Biblical Answers to 40 Questions on Living and Dying in Hope of Heaven

You don’t have to be dying to have questions about death, the afterlife, legacy planning, and more.

Preparing for Glory presents bite-size biblical answers on theological and practical issues, accompanied by beautiful hymns, prayers, reflection questions, and additional resources. Rediscover hope as you meditate on the glory that lies ahead.

“Preparing for death isn’t morbid—it’s a joy for those who have already been raised to newness of life in Christ. This book (a work of art!) is theologically fresh, deeply encouraging, and so very practical.”
