The Economy and Our New Class

Sweetheart and I are co-teaching the Dave Ramsey Financial Peace University (FPU) at our church again. This semester we had 49 adults sign up for the class and 32 showed for the first one. The rate of people showing up for the first class is about average, but the size of the class is about double what we usually teach.
 

Statically, after the third lesson [of a 9 week course] we should be down to about 20-25 committed people. As a husband, father, son, and friend, gaining control of your finances is one of the most important preparations that you can do to protect your family.

It's very cool to see people that have gone through the course, and to see that they are changing their future. Our church is even paying $25 of the $99 for the kit from the FPU organization, because they know that people are hurting in this depression/recession.

Imagine the good that could be done with a financially sound church body. Heck, we would do a better job at helping people than the government, and put the government out of the entitlement handout business!

There are many good ways to get a better handle on your finances. It takes discipline.
