Faith & Finances Course
Faith & Finances is a financial education ministry created by The Chalmers Center. The 12-week class empowers those who struggle financially with practical money management skills, biblical stewardship principles, and supportive relationships.
2 KEY THEMES:
1. Jesus is making all things new, including our money and relationships.
2. God has chosen to use our money to accomplish His work in the world.
How will Faith & Finances impact your church or ministry?
By starting a Faith & Finances ministry, your church or ministry can:
- Shift from giving things to materially poor people, focusing on long-term change in their lives – and yours
- Build authentic, supportive relationships with people who are financially vulnerable – both inside and outside your church
- Walk alongside neighbors as they make practical changes in their finances
How can you partner?
- Host a Faith & Finances class
- Join a class leadership team
- Be an ally to support and encourage a participant
- Invest in a Faith & Finances graduate’s future
Allies Make A Difference!
Both Jobs for Life™ and Faith & Finances™ are built on relationships. We talk a lot about relationships with God, with others, and with ourselves. So, we incorporate one-on-one relationships into the class by pairing each participant with an ally.
Allies are mutual learners on the journey with our class participants. You encourage, advocate for, and are a supportive friend to the participant as he or she embarks on a journey of growth.
Who can be an ally?
For our Jobs for Life™ and Faith & Finances™ classes the qualifications are simple:
- Follow Jesus, with a vision for His kingdom and reconciliation
- Have a passion to see low-income people grow spiritually and economically
- Be humbly open to new friendships, even ones across socioeconomic/cultural lines
- Attend a training before the course begins
