From the CEO

Dr. Peter Robbins

HE IS RISEN…INDEED! I pray that your Easter was blessed and that Christ was the center and focus of Resurrection Sunday! He is alive and real, and every day we are privileged to witness His miracles that bring healing to His people! God is good and He continues to work in a mighty way here at the Turning Point Ministry Group!

Some of you, if not many, may be wondering about His goodness, considering the state of our economy, people being laid off, folks losing their homes, and the stress this all puts on the family. It’s times like these that we need Him the most and are in need of reminders that He indeed is good. Mark Twain noted that, Time cools, time clarifies; no mood can be maintained quite unaltered through the course of hours. While we’re waiting for God’s goodness to be revealed, we once again bring you articles and information that are practical and can help in your everyday life from marriage and family trials to credit card debt and mortgage needs! Our desire is to bring balance to your life through our Christian based services and provide you with tools to grow and move forward in your life – all this to help you become more effective in furthering God’s kingdom! Make sure you check out the articles on the Marriage series by Dr. Downing, Marriage Mandate. And check out the article under Turning Point Stewardship about Tax rebates. We are here to serve you! For more information about all the services that TPMG offers, visit our website, www.TurningPoint.org.

Susie Orman and Dave Ramsey are very busy discussing the entanglement of debt on their respective cable television shows. They offer wonderful advice. The problem? You still have to implement their advice. I can still see Dave rolling his eyes as he shares his frustration about getting people to “do it, just do it!” At Debt Free Christian, we do it for you! We are able to “re-finance” your credit card debt at much lower rates then you’re probably paying right now. You’re not alone in finding yourself in unwanted credit card debt. Yet, you look at your balance and your interest and realize it will take forever to get out. Let us come alongside and see how we can restore some hope in a very critical part of your life. Call us today…Debt Free Christian –714-249-7302 or complete an application at www.DebtFreeChristian.com.

Turning Point Mortgage
In March the President signed a law that allows current conforming loan limits to be raised allowing people better interest rates when purchasing or refinancing. The banks are just now catching up and are able to offer these loans. To find out what the new rates are in your area you can click here. It’s a great time to buy (if you’re able) and a great time to refinance (if you need to). Let us come alongside and discuss your options.

We do, however, speak a message of wisdom among the mature, but not the wisdom of this age or of the rulers of this age, who are coming to nothing. 7 No, we speak of God's secret wisdom, a wisdom that has been hidden and that God destined for our glory before time began.
