Financial Literacy from a Christian Perspective helps teens learn practical money skills they’ll use for the rest of their lives. Through engaging lessons, online articles and videos, hands-on activities, and real-life application, students begin building healthy financial habits now while preparing for the responsibilities of adulthood.

Each chapter also encourages a biblical perspective on money, helping students develop God-honoring attitudes and practices. Throughout the course, parents are invited to share their own experiences and financial wisdom through discussion questions and assignments.

Written at a college-prep level, this easy-to-use curriculum is also adaptable for average high school, advanced, or honors students. It can be completed independently or with parent involvement and has been successfully used by both homeschool families and classroom/co-op groups.

In many states, this course can also fulfill the consumer math or financial literacy math credit requirement.

Did you know? Many homeschooling families pair 7Sisters Financial Literacy, Career Exploration Textbook and Good Answers Apologetics to help prepare their teens for adulthood. SAVE $$ when you purchase all three together in the Curriculum Bundle to Prepare for Independence?
