Raising Godly Girls

Ep. 191 — Why Learning Adulting Skills Matters for Godly Girlhood


Listen Later

Adulthood may seem like a distant milestone for your daughter, but the habits, skills, and values she builds now will shape her ability to navigate life with confidence and faith. In this episode of the Raising Godly Girls Podcast, co-hosts Rachael and Melissa dive into the concept of "adulting" and why it's about far more than just paying bills or managing a household. True Biblical adulthood involves responsibility, wisdom, and a heart that seeks to serve God and others.

Drawing from Romans 12:4-6, the conversation highlights the importance of teaching girls everyday life skills—laundry, budgeting, meal prep—not as mundane tasks, but as ways to glorify God through stewardship and responsibility. Learning to "adult" isn't just about independence; it's about living out God's calling with integrity, resilience, and wisdom.

Through practical insights and personal stories, Rachael and Melissa discuss how to instill these values in your daughter, offering key conversation points to encourage responsibility, Biblical decision-making, and healthy independence. Whether it's involving her in daily tasks, teaching her to manage money wisely, or using moments of overlap in your routine to engage her in learning, this episode is packed with actionable ideas.

Plus, hear how the American Heritage Girls' Badge Programs equips girls with real-world skills that will serve them for a lifetime, from auto care to money management. If you're looking for ways to prepare your daughter to thrive in adulthood while keeping her faith at the center of her life, this episode is a must-listen.
