How Do You Balance Building Character and Academics, Mama?

Hey Mama, In an ideal world, you would be able to perfectly balance character building and academics. But this isn’t an ideal world, and it never will be. If you have to choose between teaching character building and academics, always go with character building. You’ll never regret raising up godly children who obey the Lord.

Teach Teens to Live Debt-Free

  After years of helping people get out of debt, I believe it’s never too early to teach children how to live debt-free. Once they reach the teen years, avoiding debt is an absolutely essential life skill. Teens are bombarded with the idea of “Buy now, pay later” or “Get a loan to help your

Oh, Lord! Who Am I? What Am I Doing?

Your Child’s Four Least-Favorite Words

  I saw the look on my granddaughter’s face when I asked her to perform an unexpected, undesired task. It’s the same slit-eyed stare my mother saw a thousand times before the one-word challenge—“Why?”—tumbled from my lips, my hands on my hips. Mama’s retort was as rapid, “Because I said so.” Sting!
