DeForest B Soaries, Jr. · 2011
65/100
👎 Skip It

Pastor Soaries built this out of a real church program that got hundreds of families out of debt — that's rare, and it's rare enough it became a CNN documentary. It leans on personal testimony and faith more than spreadsheets, so treat it as inspiration and framework rather than a step-by-step workbook.
