Money Matters for Kids (Larry Burkett)
Children need to be taught the importance of stewardship at a young age, but giving them financial advice that’s too complex can overwhelm and discourage them.
In Money Matters for Kids, financial author and teacher Larry Burkett provides fun and creative tools to help children understand and apply the biblical concept of stewardship. It contains jokes, puzzles, and other fun activities and exercises that make it easy for parents to teach children godly money-management principles.
The time has come for children to know that all we have has been given to us by God and belongs to him. The vision of Money Matters for Kids is to provide the tools needed to help children and teens understand and follow biblical principles of stewardship.

Money Matters for Teens Workbook (Ages 11-14) (Larry Burkett)
“Why learn to manage my money? I’m just a teenager; I don’t have much of it anyway.”
Sounds reasonable, but it’s not.

- Pay fair prices for quality items
- Avoid being ripped off by misleading ads and salespeople
- Stay out of debt
- Save up for a car, college, or your own business
- Give money that will make a difference in the world
- Have money to do fun things with your friends
Larry Burkett and Todd Temple will show you how to take back the control of your money. You’ll learn skills that will help you right now and prepare you for a successful financial future. Imagine what can happen when, as a teenager, you begin spending your money wisely.

(U) Money in the Chimney (Eleanora Stooke)
In this story we see the world through the eyes of Gracie, the laughingstock of all the children in Jubilee Terrace. Her ill-tempered manner and her scolding voice are her only weapons of defense. One day as Gracie creeps upstairs to check on her sick grandmother, she opens the door and is astonished at the scene before her!
But she has not a single friend to talk to until one day a stranger brings a glimmer of light into her darkened world. He introduces her to the one perfect Friend who never fails anyone! From that moment on, Gracie’s life is forever changed.
As Mark Hamby writes of this story, “May we strive together to step out of our own self-centered lives and take notice of someone – perhaps a neighbor we pass by each day – with whom we can share a smile, or meet a hidden need.”

The Danger of Prosperity (William Bates)
William Bates (1625-1699) was a much-loved and highly esteemed Puritan pastor who played a key role in the restoration of King Charles II. Appointed a royal chaplain, he preached at St. Dunstan-in-the-West until forced out by the Great Ejection of 1662. Eventually he settled over a dissenting congregation at Hackney near London, where he spent the remainder of his life in fruitful ministry.
In The Danger of Prosperity, Bates insightfully teaches Christians how wealth, honor, and fame often contribute to the downfall of the unwary. He challenges his readers with the tender encouragement of a shepherd to carefully consider the ways in which the abuse of prosperity is both deadly and destructive. He provides numerous helps that Christians who enjoy God’s hand of blessing can use to avoid its sinful abuse and improve it to God’s glory and their eternal advantage.
This classic work has been carefully prepared for the enjoyment of a new generation of Christian readers. Previously available only as part of a “complete works” lithograph from the early 19th century, this new edition includes a biographical preface by James Marsh.
