I’ve been through FPU before. What are my options?
(show/hide)
If you’ve attended FPU, or if you’ve purchased the FPU kit at some point, you are a lifetime member. You can attend again for FREE. If you do choose to attend, please sign up (and use the promo code “lifetime”) so that we know you are coming. Here are your options:
1. Attend FPU again to refresh your memory and further develop good money managing habits.
2. Sign up to be a small group facilitator (please indicate this when you register online).
3. Bring someone with you that hasn’t been through FPU before.
4. Skip it this time around, but make appropriate applications in your life as you we go through the Steward teaching series together in January.
How do I become a small group facilitator?
(show/hide)
With multiple classes on multiple days, we are in need of people who have completed FPU before and have the ability to facilitate small group discussion. If you fit this category, please register online.
When do I receive my Financial Peace University materials?
(show/hide)
If you are taking the class on the Brentwood or Franklin campus, you will receive your kit the first night of class. If you are doing the class as a community group, your leader will pick up your kit from the church.
What is included in the FPU kit?
(show/hide)
The kit contains a fill-in-the-blanks workbook, a set of audio CDs, a set of envelopes and Dave Ramsey’s book, “Financial Peace University Revisited.”
I’d like to do Financial Peace University in my community group. What do I need to do?
(show/hide)
Chances are your CG leader has already decided whether or not your group will be participating individually on campus or as a group in someone’s home. Please contact them to learn more.
I’m doing FPU in my community group. Do I still need to register online?
(show/hide)
Yes! Please register.
Can I bring my kids to class?
(show/hide)
Childcare is available for children ages three (3) months to age 12. We recommend you make use of the childcare resources at the Brentwood campus. (No childcare at the Franklin campus.) Children older than 12 are welcome to attend with you. The subject matter is very appropriate for high school age students and older.

My son/daughter is a college student. Do they count as part of my household?
(show/hide)
If they live at home, yes. If not, no. But here’s the thing…we recommend that college students register separately to receive their own FPU kit. They will benefit from having their own materials, and they are more likely to attend and put the material into practice if they pay for this class on their own.
