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
