So we are in the process of mailing 15,000 postcards to our community to let them know that we are hosting a “Financial Peace University” course.  I have never been through FPU, but know many who have and can’t wait to be a part.  I know that I could be a much better “steward” of my finances.  I could totally save more, spend less, and have a ton more opportunity to be generous if I had more control over where my dollars went.  The course is 13 weeks long – so it’s a commitment.  And it does cost $93.  (That’s a reduced rate!) And, I know I am going to “buck” at many of the principles because I might not like to make the sacrifices required to improve my bottomline.  But, the reality is, if I (and my lovely bride) decide to get serious about honoring God with our income, we WILL BENEFIT long term and be able to do so much more.  It’s win/win.  I hope some of the 15,000 families near our church will come and get a grip on their finances as well.
