Wise thinking to not go into debt. In 2003 when we wanted to go to seminary we originally decided that we would pay off any debts we had already incurred. Then, some friends of ours told us that we weren't living by faith, and that we needed to move across country and just trust God to provide. We took this advice and survived for a few months before things got really bad. It was an unwise decision and we had to move back to IL to regroup. (And we are still in regroup mode) Paul still wants to finish his seminary studies but we refuse to go with any debt at all (including car payments).
