The course usually consists of three in-person weekly sesssions, e.g. Tuesdays, 6:30-8:30pm.
With it's versatile format it can be used in various settings: groups, one-on-one, in a coffee shop, by a benevolence team, or even part of marriage prep - there are limitless possibilities! You decide the best for your context.
Run the course as many times in a year as you like.
We visit your church to launch our partnership and invite monthly supporters to join us as Life Changers (supporting the free Debt Relief work we do that's so critical for people in financial distress).
