Our Cash Envelope System

Nicki and I went to the ReThink Money Workshop today that our church put on with Casey Graham. Casey talked about using one of three plans to pre-designate your monthly funds: 1. A written spending plan 2. A Cash Envelope System or 3. A computer method (Quickbooks, Quicken, Etc.). If we used the cash envelope system, here’s what it would look like right now:

We are not going to use a cash envelope system, because cash is easier to spend, and we don’t have money to spend, period. Hopefully, applying the principles we learned today will help us save money and cut spending where we can, it is not going to help us overcome my need to start a second job for a while, but it will reduce the amount I need to earn in that job. If you hear of a ReThink Money Seminar in your area, I highly recommend you go to it.

Join the Conversation: Do you use a budgeting system or a spending plan, if so what is it?

ReThink Money Workshop

Casey Graham spoke at TCAG Sunday about God’s purpose for our money. I loved the verse he used from the Message:

1 Timothy 6:17-19 Tell those rich in this world’s wealth to quit being so full of themselves and so obsessed with money, which is here today and gone tomorrow. Tell them to go after God, who piles on all the riches we could ever manage—to do good, to be rich in helping others, to be extravagantly generous. If they do that, they’ll build a treasury that will last, gaining life that is truly life.

His bottom line thought was: “God wants us to do well (financially) so we can do good.”

His main ideas: God gives us riches (money) so we can…

  1. Do Good
  2. Help Others
  3. Be Extravagantly Generous

The message was an introduction to our new series, “Bling” which will include a financial workshop on Saturday, November 8 from 8:15 a.m. until 12:30 p.m. If you live in the Augusta, Martinez, Evans, or North Augusta area, I highly recommend you attend this workshop.
