What is Financial Peace University – and why should I take the course?

St. Paul’s Financial Peace University (FPU) is an 8-week financial management class (plus 5 optional weeks) built upon common sense, Biblically–based financial principles.  The class combines Dave Ramsey’s entertaining and fast–paced video lessons on money management with the accountability of small group discussions and relationship-building.

“Seventy percent of families are living pay check to paycheck,” states Ramsey.  “They are overworked and overstressed because of the out-of-control spending that our culture encourages.  FPU teaches God’s plan for money management.”

Who is Financial Peace University Designed For?

• Anyone who feels like there isn’t enough money to take care of everything
• Those with credit card debt that’s overwhelming them
• People who make a good living, but don’t feel like they are “getting ahead”
• Those who feel like they don’t know where all their money goes each month…
• Young couples just getting started
• Folks planning for retirement
• Parents with college tuitions to pay for
• …EVERYONE!

What Will I Learn in the Course – and How is it different from Crown Ministries or Good Sense?

Financial Peace includes lots of practical financial information that will help you:

• Get control of your money
• Follow a step-by-step process for getting out – and staying out – of debt
• Put together a monthly spending plan that really works
• Set financial goals and communicate about money
• Know what insurance to buy and what to avoid
• Plan for retirement and make good investment decisions
• Buy or sell a home the right way
• Know how to find GREAT bargains
• Utilize a good money plan to strengthen your marriage
• Eliminate the stress that comes from financial problems

What’s the Cost?

The cost for the course is $100 per family for a lifetime membership (MSRP value of $199).  St. Paul’s members who have taken the course say it is WELL worth the investment.  In fact, the average family taking Financial Peace University reduces their debt by $5,300 and saves $2,700 during the 13-weeks of the course.

For your $100, you receive the FPU workbook, audio CDs that include all 13 lessons, Dave Ramsey’s best-selling book, budgeting forms, and lots more tools to help you.  Plus, you can take the course again at any time at no additional cost.
