Get "Back to Basics"

Contrary to what you may think, budget is not a dirty word, does not mean taking away all of your fun, and it is not scary.  As Jon Maxwell said, "A budget is simply people telling money what to do instead of wondering where it went."  How many times have you wondered where your money went?

"Any enterprise is built by wise planning, becomes strong through common sense, and profits wonderfully by keeping abreast of the facts." Proverbs 24:3-4.

Through hands on, yet light-hearted, workshops and personalized coaching we will explore God's desire for money management including budgeting, tithing, debt, and saving.  Together we will create a workable budget, develop an accelerated debt pay down and elimination plan, create an emergency savings plan, and review financial scriptures.  Workshops and coaching materials are tailored to fit the needs of our participants including adults, teens, and college students.

Personalized coaching

If group settings are not your thing or you want some additional one-on-one coaching, we provide personalized coaching sessions.  Sessions are on an as needed basis and focus heavily on the saving, cash flow planning, giving, and debt elimination.  Additionally, I will coach you on getting the most bang for your buck on your existing loans, credit cards, mortgage, insurance policies, utilities, and food (groceries and eating out).
