On Saturday, November 23rd, we hosted a training session for all potential group facilitators for Financial Peace University (FPU). Below are AI-generated notes summarizing the third session led by Nick Lenzi.
Notes for Session Four:
- Can you facilitate if you’re still in debt?
- Yes! Facilitation is about leading by example and being open about your journey, not about having it all figured out. Vulnerability builds trust and transformation.
- How will FPU affect current dinner groups?
- Facilitators may step out temporarily to facilitate Financial Peace University groups, which should be celebrated as an opportunity to create new communities. Leaders are encouraged to guide their groups through this season with flexibility.
- How do we navigate couples and group formats?
- Couples can participate separately or together, but discussions and homework should be done jointly. Financial Peace University groups can be flexible in structure to fit varying needs.
- Handling latecomers to Financial Peace University:
- If someone joins after Week 3, encourage them to wait for the next wave of Financial Peace University groups in April to ensure they get the full experience.
- What support is available for facilitators?
- Weekly emails with tips, adjustments for group needs, and access to the Financial Peace University Coordinator Guide will keep facilitators informed and prepared. The church team is always available to partner with leaders.
- Why Financial Peace University matters?
- Facilitators were reminded that stewardship is a critical part of discipleship, transforming not just finances but also hearts and relationships.
