Leaders Members of Calvary since 2005, Adam and Nicole Shake took Financial Peace University in early 2014 after the death of Nicole's father.  After paying off nearly all their debt in just under 2 years, the Shake's felt called to share Dave Ramsey's life and legacy changing message with as many people as possible. Adam and Nicole live in Mackinaw with their 3 children, Bryan, Bobby, and Britney.

A Word from the Leaders “Financial Peace University will teach you how to use the money God has entrusted to your care in His ways.  Dave's lessons are a biblical approach to money management, borrowing, saving, investing, and giving.  Attendees will leave with a stronger understanding of the Bible's teachings about money.”
