Me: Rachel
I am a 22-year-old Christ Follower and stay at home wife who works part-time for Tennessee Farmers Cooperative in Communications. I also have a video netcast, Life:Frugal and Simple where I cover frugal and simple living topics!! I have been married three years to my love, John David! He is Media Director at our church and we are so thrilled that God is using his talents!! God has blessed our marriage and I am always in awe of his hand in our lives! We live a simple life and live frugally, which are the main themes of this blog. We are debt free, minus our home, and live under John David's income so I can stay home with our future little ones and so we can give and bless others!! We are excited about what the future has in store and how God is going to use us!!

Hi Rachel,
I recently posted our financial goals for 2009. We have been following Dave Ramsey's plan for about 18-20 months, and have accomplished a lot. We started out trying to bend the rules a bit, but we ended up changing and following his steps pretty rigidly--I encourage you to think about focusing intently on one goal at a time. Debt first, emergency fund next, paying down mortgage after the other two are completed. You really will get there faster if you don't try to do too many things at one time. You guys will get there! You will find you become even better at the plan as time goes by. I also recommend reading "Your Money or Your Life". I am reading that as part of the Simple Mom book club. It makes you think at another level beyond Dave Ramsey's plan.
