HOME: Eldership and Money
Mark Parrett and Steven Manuel conclude their series about spiritual leadership at home with a discussion on money (4:15). They review “not being a lover of money” (7:00), being “temperate and self-controlled” (9:30), “not given to drunkenness” (yes, we’re talking about money, 12:00), not being “quarrelsome” (15:00), “his children obey him” (18:45), “hospitable” (20:20), and “managing the household well” (26:35). If you don’t handle your dough right, you’re disqualified for more Kingdom leadership… so let’s get this right!

They discuss goals for infants in arms (6:30), the young father who feels he has to choose between disciplemaking and changing diapers (12:15), how to make Bible reading meaningful for kiddos (26:00), which weekly chores are good for a 6-year-old (31:00), what a normal week looks like in the Beausejour home (31:45), where to start if you’ve never tried to have spiritual rhythms in your home (36:45), and how having godly, just-a-bit-older heroes for our kids is a major win (45:00). Michael has more kids than you do (7 under the age of 8!) so give him a listen.
