Winter Term Starts January. 11, 2012
Most Courses are 7:00-8:00pm; some start earlier as noted.
|
The FocusPoint year is divided into three semesters, fall, winter, and spring terms.
As a part of Woodland Church's FocusPoint Classes, we offer Dave Ramsey's Financial Peace University.
|
Dave Ramsey is the national host of the Dave Ramsey Show on Fox Business network. A committed Christian, he encourages us not to conform. "Normal is broke! Be weird!" He had to learn this the hard way himself years ago. And out of that came this ministry that has helped hundreds of thousands gain financial peace.
Think a student loan is a good thing? Go to this link to calculate the cost, monthly terms. Then divide by the average grad's wagers per hour. That's$15 hour/$30000 year = working for Uncle Sam 23 hours of every month for 10 years on a $30000 loan! Over half a work week each month for 10 years for an average student loan. And you'll pay a cumulative $41,400. There is a better way!
