I want to share something with you that Seth, my husband, and I are taking part in. We are currently part of a bible study written by Dave Ramsey entitled "Financial Peace university" It's an awesome study that teaches how to manage your money in a way that's pleasing to God and beneficial for you and your future. Seth and I are loving it and we are on our way to being debt free which is a major goal and component of the series. Finances are a major stressor to most families in America. Did you know that the average American household carries $8000 in credit card debt???? It's crazy! I encourage you to check this study out and have financial peace! check it out at www.daveramsey.com

That is really great. Many young (and older) couples struggle with fighting over finances. I'm glad you and Seth have that under control.

I love your blog!

I love your blog, too, Amanda!

We pray our credit card bill in full every month. I read once that if you charge $1000 ONE TIME ONLY on a credit card charging 12% interest (many are much higher), and pay only the minimum balance every month (which most people do), it will take you 12 years to pay off the debt!

Very wise of you and Seth to take a godly approach to your finances.
