Choosing Contentment Over Consumerism This Christmas

Описание: We confront holiday consumerism and show how to raise grateful, kingdom-minded kids when the world sells more as the path to joy. Practical tools, Scripture, research, and family rhythms help us model contentment, generosity, and worship through Advent.

• defining consumerism as a heart issue that shapes identity and trust
• biblical warnings on the love of money and Demas’ drift
• gratitude as the engine of contentment and enemy of consumerism
• modeling contentment: parents’ spending and habits kids copy
• Want Need Wear Read as a gift framework
• tying gifts to stewardship, budgeting, and cheerful giving
• low-cost giving traditions kids love and remember
• serve-before-you-shop practices that reframe desire
• Advent rhythms that center Christ’s humility and hope
• teaching the why of enough and seeking the kingdom first
