FPU Finale

Two years ago we were introduced to a money management plan called "Financial Peace University". This program was created by Dave Ramsey after he personally worked his way back to being a millionaire for the second time after going through bankruptcy in between. The program really is very basic and focuses on how to get out of debt and stay out of debt. This time around I lead the class of about 20 families that were going through the 13 week program. It was truly a gift each week to hear their success stories and share in their challenges. A big part of this class is having small group discussions about the topics each week and sharing our stories. It was encouraging to hear how people were changing their views on money away from the mainstream ("you've got to have debt") to beliefs that lead to winning with money ("debt is dumb!"). I pray that all of these families keep working their financial plan and continue to enjoy all that God has planned for them. Unless you are already an out-of-debt millionaire, you deserve to check out this program. It can change your family tree!
