This class offers solid, biblically-based teaching and practical, easy to use tools for developing healthy financial habits. It helps
participants discover tools and develop skills that enable them
to control their finances, rather than allowing their finances
to control them. Participants will receive practical help and guidance to:
|
$
Prioritize financial goals
$ Develop a personalized spending plan
$ Identify action steps to reduce expenses
$ Reduce
debt
$ and much more! |
 |
More
than just a learning experience about budgets and finances, the
course also enables participants to reflect on their relationships
to money and how it impacts their relationship with God. For many of us, organizing our finances according to Biblical Financial Principles can be hindered by the pull of our materialistic culture, a lack of knowledge about wise financial practices, and the need for effective tools to implement them. No matter
what the circumstance--financial crisis or abundance--this course
can help participants become:
$ Diligent earners
$ Generous Givers
$ Wise
Savers
$ Cautious Debtors
$ Prudent
Consumers |

During
the course, you will develop a Spending Plan for the coming year.
You will learn about and choose between three different record-keeping
systems to help you stick to your plan. Most importantly, you
will discover how being financially faithful can help you become
financially free. You will leave the course with a workable spending
plan in your hand, the knowledge in your head to implement it,
and the motivation in your heart to follow through with it!

'Ready
to take the next step beyond the Good $ense Budgeting Course?
Then Beyond Budgeting may be the right class
for you. As in the Good $ense course, Beyond Budgeting
continues to explore God's promise to provide for us,
as well as our responsibility to be good stewards. In addition,
this course explores other "next step" applications
to assist with saving for the future, investing with purpose,
protecting your family, and serving the community.
We are
all aware that in our best attempts to follow the teachings of
Jesus, we are often faced with personal decisions that impact
our ability to live the life that He intended for us. The Bible
speaks more on the topic of money, finances, and stewardship than
nearly any other topic. In this 10-week course, discover strategies
that will prepare you to take on some of life's greatest financial
challenges with the insight and discipline of a good steward while
exploring:
- Financial Planning strategies
- Effective uses of insurance
- Principles of investing stocks, bonds, mutual
funds, etc.
- Exploring risk and reward scenarios
|
|
- The impact of taxes on long term savings
- Understanding the use of trusts
- and more!
- Register online here
|
More
than just learning about saving, investing and planning, this
course enables you to reflect on your relationship to money and
how it impacts your relationship to God. As we become more educated
regarding financial concepts and better stewards of God's resources,
we find that money matters do not have to be such a burden and
are not as likely to hinder us from serving Him with all our heart.
