FALL 2008 Life U CLASSES:

Financial Peace University with Dave Ramsey
Course Facilitators:
Hugh Garside, Treasurer, South-Western City School District &
Dave Holdren, Executive Pastor, Cypress Wesleyan Church

Course Description:
What would your life look like if you had NO DEBT and were really IN CONTROL of your money? Most people struggle to make ends meet. They just have too much month left at the end of the money. If you have made mistakes and feel like your money vanishes each month, you are not alone. In fact, 70% of Americans live paycheck to paycheck, regardless of income.

Financial Peace University is designed to teach you and your family how to get out of debt, stay out of debt, and build wealth. You'll meet with your class each week to watch the video lesson and participate in discussion and accountability groups that will change your whole attitude about money!

Dave breaks through the common financial jargon and explains how money really works in a simple, easy-to-understand style. You'll actually have fun as you learn about saving, budgeting, investing, insurance and more! FPU is, without a doubt, the best program available for personal finance.

During this life-changing class, you will learn how to:

  • Get control of your money
  • Stop struggling to make ends meet
  • Tell your money what to do
  • Change your family's future

For Parents Only . . . getting inside the head of your preteen or teen
Course Facilitator:
Kathy George, Director of Cypress Children's Ministries

Course Description:
For every bewildered parent, there's a kid longing to be understood. What parent hasn't occasionally looked at their beloved but bewildering offspring and wondered, What in the world is he thinking? or Why is my sweet little girl acting like that? This study will take you inside the mind of teens and preteens through the same innovative approach that seized national attention in the best-selling books For Women Only, For Men Only, and For Young Women Only. You will explore the results of a nationwide survey and personal interviews with more than 1000 real-life teens and tweens to tackle those things parents often don't "get" about their kids. You'll hear first-hand about the longings that drive your kids' seemingly illogical decisions, the truth behind those exasperating "attitude problems" and what your children would tell you if they could trust you to truly listen.

Course Dates & Times:
Sundays, October 5 - November  23, 2008

Course Fees:
$15.00 per family (couple or single); which includes the book For Parents Only, plus a discussion guide
