Participant's Guide Required
Grace. Joy. Freedom.
Are those the first words that come to mind when you think of finances? They
could be!
Grace, joy, and freedom are words people most often use to
describe their experience of Good $ense—a proven, biblical
resource for changing hearts and lives in the area of finances.
Field tested for more than nineteen years at Willow Creek and
other churches, Good $ense can help relieve the crushing
stress and anxiety caused by consumer debt, restore marriages
torn by conflict over money, heal wounded self-esteem and
shattered confidence resulting from poor financial decisions,
and remove stumbling blocks to spiritual growth.
Everyone in your church can experience the joy of financial
freedom. This course serves a range of people - those in
financial crisis, those just "one paycheck from disaster",
those in "good" financial shape (but perhaps not
honoring God with their resources) and those who are honoring
God with their resources, but who want to deepen their understanding
of God's stewardship call. More than just a learning experience
about budgets and finances, this course enables participants
to reflect on their relationship to money and how it impacts
their relationship to God.
Good $ense will help the people in your church discover tools
and develop skills that enable them to control their finances
rather than allowing their finances to control them. They'll
receive practical help and guidance to:
• Prioritize financial goals
• Develop a personalized spending plan
• Identify action steps to reduce expenses
• Reduce debt . . . and much more
Make this seminar part of a stewardship campaign in your
