ADVICE

Measure Life By Spiritual Purpose

  • Ask family members regularly, “What are you doing for the Lord?” to keep focus on eternal purpose rather than title or job.
  • Make spiritual purpose the measuring stick for success in family relationships and decisions.
INSIGHT

Think In Generations Not Seasons

  • Short-term thinking treats children as nest occupants to be launched at 18 instead of lifelong team members.
  • God’s design is generational stewardship that plans and blesses across multiple generations.
ADVICE

Document Your Family’s Mission And Values

  • Create a written family mission, vision, and values document and review it regularly with heirs.
  • Base family values on Scripture so successive generations have a stable reference point.
