Helping Adult Children Honor God with Money
God calls parents to teach, encourage, and faithfully guide their children. They have been given a special trust to serve as stewards or managers of their children. Yet even with the biblical challenge of teaching and training children, parents are not responsible for the decisions their adult children make - each person is held accountable individually. Parents are accountable, however, for the guidance they provide to their children.
There are several things parents can do to help their adult children honor God with their money:
- Help adult children understand God’s principles.
- Continue to offer appropriate guidance to adult children.
- Be willing to allow their adult children to fail.
- Help their children be dependent on God (rather than their parents).
- Provide assistance with caution, to allow God to lead them in a manner that
will not thwart His purposes in their lives.
