Your Question:

How do I keep my family safe when I'm not there to provide for them?

Answer:

As a pastor and a husband, I understand the importance of keeping my family safe, even when I'm not there to provide for them. One way to do this is to make sure they have a strong foundation in their faith. My wife, Susan, and I have been teaching our children, Joshua and Rebecca, about the importance of God's love and provision in their lives. We've also been praying for them to make wise decisions and to seek guidance from God.

Another way to keep our family safe is to teach them practical skills, such as budgeting and financial stewardship. As they grow older, it's essential that they know how to manage their finances, avoid debt, and make smart decisions about credit and debit cards. By teaching them these skills, we're equipping them to be responsible adults who can take care of themselves and their families.

In addition to teaching them practical skills, I also want to empower Joshua and Rebecca to make a positive impact in their community. We've talked about the importance of serving others, whether it's through volunteering at a local shelter or donating to charity. By teaching them to serve others, we're helping them develop a sense of compassion and responsibility that will serve them well throughout their lives.
