			FINANCIAL PEACE UNIVERSITY PROVIDES HOPE TO FAMILIES IN LINCOLN 
			Jefferson Street Christian Church   1700 
			N Jefferson Street 
 NASHVILLE, 
			Tenn. — More than 2.5 million families have positively changed their 
			financial future through Dave Ramsey’s Financial Peace University (FPU). 
			The nine-week course provides families and individuals with 
			practical tools to gain control of their finances and set themselves 
			up for long-term financial success. The course meets once a week 
			where a different lesson is taught by Dave on DVD followed by a 
			small-group discussion. Lessons include budgeting, relationships and 
			money, getting out of debt, saving for emergencies and investing. 
			FPU will be held in Lincoln at:
 Jefferson Street Christian Church located at 1700 N Jefferson 
			Street in Lincoln. The classes will begin Wednesday, May 04, 2016 at 
			6:00 PM. Contact Mario Gurule at (217) 732-9294 for more information 
			or to register.
 
 Through common-sense principles and small-group accountability, FPU 
			gives people the tools they need to change their behavior and 
			succeed financially. On average families who complete FPU pay off 
			$5,300 and save $2,700 in the first 90 days. Following the class 
			nearly 94 percent of those families budget regularly.
 
 “FPU will not only transform the way you handle money, but also your 
			marriage and other areas of your life,” says Ramsey. “This isn’t a 
			boring financial class. We make learning about money fun and easy to 
			understand so people in every situation can benefit from the 
			information.”
 
 Ramsey knows first-hand the pain that financial stress can cause. 
			After creating a net worth of more than a million dollars by age 26, 
			he quickly lost it all. Since then Ramsey has helped families and 
			individuals across the country learn how to get control of their 
			finances and avoid debt so they don’t have to experience the same 
			pain he did.
 
 FPU lessons also include guest speakers Rachel Cruze, speaker and 
			daughter of Dave Ramsey, and Chris Hogan, counselor and speaker for 
			the Dave Ramsey organization.
 
 After purchasing a membership each participant receives a workbook, 
			Dave Ramsey’s Complete Guide to Money, an envelope system and an 
			audio CD library. Participants will also have access to budgeting 
			forms and MP3s of all the lessons. For more information or to 
			purchase a membership, go to www.daveramsey.com.
