We use a calling card that we got at Sam’s almost seven years ago. We recharge it online and pay just over $.03/minute. We have the number memorized so we don’t even have to have the card to make a long distance call. It’s great to not have a shockingly high phone bill because of long distance charges. It’s saved us a TON of money over the years!

I’m going to finally get your e-book! FYI- when I click to add it to my cart it adds the homeschool book instead…so I clicked on that link and it added the financial freedom book…

Lucy T.,

I think that is a very good point; often when we’re doing what we think “makes sense”, we don’t get the same reward if that wisdom is contrary to God’s. I’ve heard the same said of tithing…

Kelly,my husband is a crew leader at a factory and like your husband spent a couple nights working for some friends of ours at thier pizza place.$50.00 a night free food and drinks for are family of 7 may not sound like much to some but it made a huge diffrence in our monthly savings and kept me home.I tried babysitting and cleaning houses my children and husband hated my time being spent away from them.I also had a really hard time keeping up with the kids school work when I cleaned.But the funny thing is even though I made the same or a little more than my husbands pizza job we never seemed to be getting ahead that way.We believe we where working out of Gods will for our lives as soon as we switched things around our home life became more scheduled again and blessings begain to pour in.Gifts we never expected,money from security deposits on places we hadn’t lived in 5 years,good deals on thing we needed,and God really started blessing our thought life as well.Suddently ideas would come to us that had never accured to us before.Basically I am saying if your struggling financialy you may want to consider if you are living in Gods will or not.I am not saying that we will not have hardships either way but being inline with Gods plan for family blessed us greatly.
