Crown Financial Group Study

The Crown Financial Bible Study is a 10 week topical study of what Scripture teaches about money and possessions. Graduates have confirmed that marriages are being strengthened and individuals are finding their way out of debt. They are also becoming consistent savers, generous givers, and prudent consumers. Most importantly, people are entering into a closer relationship with Jesus Christ as they learn to apply His Word. Groups meet for 2 hours every week and meetings include Scripture memorization and interactive discussions.

There are four requirements for students participating in this study:

  1. Daily prayer for each member of your group
  2. Memorize one assigned Scripture each week
  3. Complete weekly homework assignments - both Bible study and practical application. (approximately 2 hours of homework per week)
  4. Attend a minimum of 8 of the 10 classes
