I like the way that Dave Ramsey lays out his Baby Steps. I like Crown Financial's online roadmap. I think basically it comes down to this: just do it. It doesn't matter which of these systems you use -- just do it. Dave Ramsey's and Crown Financial's plans are very similar -- you just have to do it. Dave does not stress the will of God or scripture the way Crown Financial does -- but you still have to just do it. Wesley's sermon strikes a chord with me -- but you still just have to do it.
Get the point?
