It's time for back-to-school shopping and with it comes a special opportunity to teach your kids about money! In the first part of a two-part series I focus on an invaluable opportunity: teaching your children about money during this shopping season. Back-to-school shopping isn't just about supplies; it's a chance to instill essential financial values in your children. The financial behavior you exhibit is shaping their future habits. So, join me as we explore practical ways to make the most of this teaching moment. Get ready to equip your kids with lifelong biblical financial wisdom as we navigate this back-to-school journey together.
