Today I attended a closing ceremony for our “12 Steps to
Financial Freedom” class at First Baptist Church of Lincoln Gardens. The
participants in the class started their journey in January and every Tuesday for
3 months night they met together for 75 minutes discussing the principles,
strategies and commitments for financial freedom. The textbook was “dfree:
Breaking Free from Financial Slavery.” I was the instructor. Although I wrote
the book and the workbook, this was a life changing experience for me.
dfree® class January - March 2013 |
While it is true that we started #dfree® to help people get
out of debt, the #dfree® movement is much more than a debt reduction campaign. People
seem to be catching the vision of freedom from debt, delinquencies and deficits to deposits, dividends and deeds! As I say in my book, we really
don’t manage money – we manage our lives and then we use our money to help us
reach our goals. #dfree® is a strategy that motivates people to define their life
goals and then to use money strategically rather than spend money emotionally
in order to reach those goals.
I am more motivated now than I have ever been before to grow
this movement. I am grateful to my church members that have been so supportive
and enthusiastic. If you and your church or organization would like to join the
#dfree® movement, connect with us at www.mydfree.org
