Wait, faith IS the insurance! So the customer wants to re-insure against the risk of their faith in God fading? Some believer your customer is.
Heaven is a policy that supplies more personal benefit than cash compensation would alone. Insurance is usually purchased for those who remain after someone expires. Should your faith fail, no amount of money in the world woul restore it. Faith is a gift from our Creator, one that allows us to commune with Him and understand Him. The insurance is the individual soul. When that fails, there is no coverage, just much personal, spiritual trauma.

Surely you jest regarding the customer who wants to have their faith in God insured....
I don't necessarily agree with another answer stating that faith is the insurance policy that admits one into heaven. In the various mystery schools of thought, the way one lives their life should not be centered on, "If I do this, then I'll surely get into Heaven". In fact, most mystery schools acknowledge that Heaven's accessible my far more folks than just those toting a Bible, and that it's a "stop-over" for review/planning purposes prior to reincarnating.
When Jesus was talking about moving mountains with faith the size of a mustard seed, he was trying to let people (the average Jo Schmo) that they were more capable than they believed -- focus/intention affects our outer world -- that the power of God resided WITHIN them, not outside of them.
Wanting to do "good" for good's sake is what should compel one into action -- living compassionately...otherwise, it's a trade/exchange, and doesn't meet the criteria for genuine good.

You cannot insure things that do not have a monetary value. You also cannot insure things that cannot be physically harmed or taken from you. You can insure your jewelry, you can insure your life (it can be physically taken from you). You cannot insure non-material things. We have insurance so that we are covered if our important material items are ruined or damaged. We have life insurance so that those we leave behind will be taken care of in our absense. Insuring your faith in god seems like a scam. What if your customer decides that he has lost his faith in God one day? Are you going to pay out for it? How does one prove their faith, or lack of it? I mean, really PROVE it??

Heaven is a good insurance policy for suicide bombers. All others will take cash... especially the Baptists... Sorry, it is just a cruel joke.
