David Hull-Frye is Pastor at Grandview United Methodist Church in Cuyahoga Falls.  He has experienced firsthand the intimidating feeling of money troubles, and the process of enjoying financial freedom.  As a father and husband, David knows the struggles of putting food on the table, the stress money places on a committed relationship, the financial cost of raising two children in 2024 and the anxiety of an uncertain future in our country.  He'll share practical experiences to help you toward financial freedom. 

Pastor David and Kathie take a person-focused approach to addressing finances.  We don't use slideshows or pre-recorded videos.  We share our personal knowledge and experience.  We walk with you on your journey to financial freedom. We can't do it for you, everyone is at a different place in their journey. However, learn some ways to help accomplish this.  Our sessions are interactive, allowing time to celebrate accomplishments and address concerns.  We look forward to journeying with you. 

Registration is required.
