  • Raising Generous Hearts: Teaching Kids Stewardship and Giving, with Shawna Sullivan
    Nov 29 2025

    How do we help our kids grow generous hearts in a culture that says to hold tight to what you have?

    As parents, we want our children to invest in what truly matters: sharing their time, talents, and treasures with others. But it isn’t always easy! From squabbles over toys to big lessons about money, stewardship starts with small conversations and habits in everyday life.

    Discover practical ways you can plant seeds of generosity and gratitude in your family, celebrate the flourishing moments, and model giving together. Join us as we explore how intentional habits can cultivate deep, lasting faith and kindness.
