A Walk . . .

Our beautiful twins take a significant walk today at 12:30 . . . as they walk across the stage and get their high school diplomas. Unbelievable.

And they are both such beautiful young ladies. How thankful and proud we are!

It just happens so fast . . . Go Sarah! Go Laura! Chase Jesus to the ends of this world!

Stay Hungry! Stay Foolish!

Congratulations FPU'ers!

Congratulations to all our Creekers (and Yorktowners) who graduated last week from our First Financial Peace University Class!

Way to go! Way to press on!

We had over 10 families who retired at least $1,000 of debt just in the 13 weeks . . . and at least 2 families who already retired over $5,000 of debt . . . and they're just getting started!

It's incredible how God is blessing these folks -- and this Fall when we offer FPU again, you can get in on the blessing!

On the last week Dave Ramsey talked about Giving. Here are some highlights of what he said:

- You and I are asset managers for God, so if we view it properly, we aren't giving our own money.

- Giving moves you to become less selfish, and less selfish people have more of a tendency to prosper in relationships and wealth!

- Because we are made in God's image, we are happiest and most fulfilled when we are serving and giving.

- A 'tithe' of your first fruits is a 10th off the top of what God has given you!

- "'Bring all the tithes into the storehouse, that there may be food in My house, try Me now in this,' says the Lord of hosts, 'See if I will not open for you the windows of heaven and pour out for you such blessing that there will not be enough room to receive it.'" (Malachi 3:10)
