a podcasting priest, a man with a plan, and hope

November 30, 2007

    the misses and i just like many other people out there have debt. so much so that we were pushed to a corner with creditors calling and calling to any number they could find, lawsuits were pending and we were scared. I looked up to god and asked for an answer for some reason a podcasting priest came to mind. I emailed him and told him my problems not thinking he would responded but indeed he did, he told me of a person who could help the teachings he did and the books he wrote could quite possibly change my life. that person he told me about was dave ramsey. he mentioned as to how good he was at what he did and while he would pray for me that i should go get his book .
I listened to Father Roderick and looked Dave Ramsey up turns out he has an available podcast as well as a book and a radio show. I can safely say i am hooked to these teachings like a person in a hospital has an IV My wife and I started from the bottom. 50+ thousand in debt (credit cards, school loans and loads of stupid) over the years and have successfully paid off almost half of our debt in the last 5 months  and no my wife and I are not wealthy by any means. but by getting on a “beans and rice, rice and beans bare-bones budget” the hill mountain of debt in front of us is slowly collapsing like a house of cards. Thank you Dave Ramsey and Thank You Father Roderick I will forever be in both your debts.
