Good $ense


Good $ense is a financial stewardship ministry based in the local church that supports the pastor in teaching, training and encouraging its members to honor God with their money and possessions. In this process, money is removed as a rival god and barrier to spiritual growth - transformational stewardship.

The Good $ense Ministry of Willow Creek Association and Transformation Ministries are offering training for leaders in the Good $ense Budget Course. All Good $ense Budget Course content will be covered including biblical financial principles, budget basics, and teaching insights to help you assist others in developing God-honoring money management habits. You'll have opportunity to discuss implementation of the Good $ense Budget Course in your own church. In addition, you'll gain an understanding of how it works hand-in-hand with the overall Good $ense Ministry model.  Good $ense Support Ministry is extensive, and we work with them and your church.

Why Adopt Good $ense?
