NEXT STEPS – A New Part Of The Crusade – Part 1

Before this moment, there were four key ways this crusade was carried out:

Today, I am PUMPED to introduce a fifth way that this crusade is carried out: NEXT STEPS

Let me tell you how this newest part of the crusade came about.

First I will start by reiterating my passion.  It is my passion to see others accomplish far more than they ever thought possible with their personal finances.  The reason I am so passionate about this is because I believe that when people are financially free, they are much more likely to go do EXACTLY what they have been put on this earth to do.

As I partner with churches and businesses throughout the nation to help teach PRACTICAL personal finance tools, my passion and this vision drives me to constantly ask the question, "What is a PRACTICAL next step that we can offer folks?"

Let me be more specific.

  • "After this message series on money, what is the PRACTICAL next step we can offer to help people take their finances to the next level?"
  • "After Joe speaks at our business, what is a PRACTICAL next step we can offer to help people take their finances to the next level?"
  • "After the Financial Learning Experience or Financial Freedom Experience, what is a PRACTICAL next step we can offer to help people take their finances to the next level?"
  • "After someone reads I Was Broke. Now I'm Not., what is a PRACTICAL next step we can offer to help people take their finances to the next level?"
  • "After someone participates in the I Was Broke. Now I'm Not. Group Study, what is a PRACTICAL next step we can offer to help people take their finances to the next level?"

Next Steps is a website created to answer these questions. Over the next several weeks, there will be several series written about the practical tools and solutions that we have placed on the site.  I encourage you to check it out, and see if there are ways that can help you achieve YOUR next steps!

Perry Noble – A Great Leader

October is Pastor Appreciation Month, and I am blessed to work with Perry Noble, the Founding and Senior Pastor of NewSpring Church.

Perry, I appreciate everything you do, but here are two few specific things that make me super-proud to serve with you. 

  • VISION  I appreciate your God-inspired vision and your unwillingness to allow anyone or anything to compromise it.  From the day you came to our house and sat on our crappy, worn-out blue living room couch to tell us that you were called to plant a church to now when there are nearly 10,000 people attending every weekend, you have never allowed the vision to be compromised.
  • PERSONAL GROWTH  You have continued to challenge yourself to grow as a husband, leader, and a father.  Even now, when you could sit back and say, "We are running 10,000 people.  That's pretty good.  Let's sit back a little and rest."  Instead, I still see you ravenously taking notes in that 2-pt script font that you write in and filling the entire page up with notes.  You meet with mentors.  You go to conferences.  You read books.  You read blogs.  And more than all of these other ways of growing, you read the Bible and pray and allow God to guide you.

I am proud to say, "Perry Noble is my pastor, leader, and friend."
