When It’s Time®: An End-of-Life Workbook for Pre-Planners and Survivors
Death is a journey everyone will experience, yet it is seldom discussed. Instead, survivors are left to navigate it on their own, unequipped and paralyzed from the loss of a loved one. When It’s Time® walks through thirteen end-of-life realities that apply to both “pre-need” planners who are preparing in advance for their own end-of-life and “at-need” survivors who are dealing with the death of a loved one. This companion workbook serves as a guide, offering practical action steps, templates, and checklists to help you develop or implement an end-of-life plan.

This is a beautiful and deeply needed resource. Rick has given us all a gift.

Thank you, Pastor Rick. You are a very special person.
With love.

Having read the book myself, I knew of the value found within its cover, and have used the book as a Chaplain for hospice. The seminar provided valuable information that the attendees grasped, and the comments were encouraging about applying what they had learned for “pre-planning” and “at-need” (when death has occurred and now survivors implement the plan). I found Rick to be extremely easy to work with at our seminar and appreciated [...]
