Financial Peace!

We're debt free!!!! And we want you to be debt free too!

As of July 11th, 2007, my husband and I are officially debt free (except for the house). I am excited about that, but I am even more excited about starting Financial Peace at Midtown! I am really looking forward to this class, and I hope that this blog will be a place where we can ask questions, get answers and encourage one another.

So.....those of you who have bought their kits, have you looked through it yet? Who loves the envelope system? I do! I do! Have you read any of the book, Financial Peace Revisted? It will be homework throughout the 13 weeks so don't feel like you have to read it now, but if you want to go for it! If you have read a bit, or looked at the workbook, did anything pop out to you?

Any questions? Are you ready to get started? I am!

Things to think about:

1. Sundays from 12-2 - yes, the time slot is rough - how will you help yourself to stay awake for the class? For our family, that is prime naptime!! I believe caffeine will be involved!
2. Lunches - start planning on what you will bring for lunches. There won't be much time in between service and our class, so start to figure out what you will bring. Remember that brown bagging it will save you money! This will be great practice for when you bring your lunch to school or work every day!
3. Start to think about what motivates you to get out of debt? Less stress? More opportunities? Our motivations? Well, I believe it's biblical, practical, and will enable us to GIVE like no one else! What are your motivations?


Okay, that's all for now. I'll be back with other info as the weeks go by. Feel free to post any questions you have about the class!
