I have to weigh in here with a genuinely unpopular but true statement concerning the 10% tithe. I hate to point this out, BUT…It’s not scriptural. please find the scripture that says we are to give 10% of our earnings to God…I’ve never found it…I have read that this is a misinterpretation of a scripture in the OT that talks about the jubilee year. Someone please find this for me, I have searched and have found no clear reference in the NT for giving 10% of earnings to anyone for any reason…?

Such a rewarding course for all concerned. I would say that most of our small class “Got It”. Thank you Dave Ramsey. This course should be taught in high school.

My wife and I just finished FPU last week as well and I have to say that the giving chapter was one of the most motivating speeches I have ever heard.

Imagine how you would have felt having a complete stranger pay off a huge portion of your debt – no strings attached.

Good stuff. Really good stuff.

Pete,
well said. Contentment is the key – The apostle paul talked about it and how he could live with a lot or with a little. Growing in that area has been one of the most liberating things that has happened to me!
