God has entrusted His things, time, talent, TREASURE, to us to manage for Him -Mat 25:14-30
God expects a POSITIVE return on His investment -Mat 25:26-28
God will hold you ACCOUNTABLE -2 Cor 5:6-10

How to become faithful in the "little" things:

1. Help them recognize the three purposes of money are GIVING, saving, and spending -1 Tim 6:17-19

2. Encourage them to commit to honor God with FIRST FRUITS of every paycheck to remind them that it's GOD’S money, not their own -Pro 3:9-10

3. Encourage them to make time with GOD their #1 priority so they’ll know how to invest the time, talent, and treasure entrusted to them -Mark 1:35
