I'm a huge Dave Ramsey fan. If you listen to his radio show over time, you will see the fruit of his "teachings"...people who are desparate, who have made stupid decisions, and who are financially "lost" are very much ministered to. His target audience isn't someone who basically has it all together and is looking for investment strategies, it's the average American who has too much debt, and is living paycheck to paycheck.
Dave is a Christian, I believe. he's not Reformed (with a capital "R") but he frequently points to Christ, and the wisdom of the scriptures.
