Give, Save, Spend

More about the book

With numerous spending options available, it's crucial to teach children how to manage money to prevent them from falling into debt. Proverbs 22:6 emphasizes the importance of training a child in the right way, ensuring they won't stray from it as they grow. Unfortunately, many young adults leave university with significant debt, often not repaid until their 40s. Proverbs 22:7 warns that the borrower is a slave to the lender, highlighting the need for financial education. Teaching children about money management is essential to avoid the debt trap. This Bible-based study-story introduces young readers to biblical principles regarding money. With over 2,300 verses in the Bible addressing financial matters and 15 percent of Jesus' teachings focused on money and possessions, the lessons are vital. Aimed for use at home, in Children's Church, and Christian schools, the narrative follows Alfie, Amy, Jack, and Lebo as they work to save for a puppy. Through their journey of earning, saving, giving, and spending, they learn valuable lessons about God and financial stewardship. The book features illustrations, simple Bible stories, hands-on activities, and a prayer record, making it an engaging resource that can be used independently or alongside a Teacher's Guide.
