What could the People of God do for the Kingdom of God if they were debt free?

Who is Financial Peace University for?

It’s for EVERYONE from the financially secure to the financially distressed. Over 180,000 families and individuals have attended FPU at their workplace, church, military base, local nonprofit organization or community group. On average these families have paid off over $5,300 in debt and saved $2,700 during this 91-day program! The results of participants in the classes at First Church have been consistent with these numbers.


We will be offering multiple Financial Peace University classes this fall. Watch for more details.

The cost is $107 per household. Child care is available for $50 per household.

It can be a life changing experience. Read what some of our members say about Financial Peace University...

"FPU has taught us to speak the same money language. We have created a budget and we agree on where our money is going. We no longer have money discussions that end with tension between us." Josh and Dana Prewitt

"FPU not only opened many lines of connunication about finances, but is also made us very aware of where our money goes each month. Being proactive with our budget instead of reactive has been a hege help and we reduced our debt 35% in the first 4 months of using FPU strategies." Jimmy and Alison Pace

We have shared the Dave Ramsey principles we learned in FPU with all of our employees. It has been a great experience to watch others flourish after learning the simple steps that FPU teaches." Kim and JR Builta

"FPU in an investment. We have had the opportunity to facilitate several classes at First Church. We have witnessed FPU provide hope, answer financial questions and strengthen marriages (including ours). Best of all, FPU has given us a foundation to teach our three daughters how to win with money." Mike and Pam Wozniak
