'Be patient with me,' he begged, 'and I will pay back everything.' The servant's master took pity on him, canceled the debt and let him go. - Matthew 18: 26-27 A classic example of Christian debt negotiation. But these days, it's simply not that simple. To experience debt cancelation, you have to file for bankruptcy. But we're guessing you're here to avoid that, which is a smart move on your part. Bravo! Anyhow, if you'll looking for help with your debt and a little spiritual guidance mixed in, Christian debt negotiation may be just for you. Elements of Christian Debt Negotiation Christian debt negotiation is the most basic element of Christian debt consolidation. Here's how it works: You enroll in a Christian debt negotiation program, and one of the debt negotiation specialists will contact your creditors on your behalf to explain how you wound up with the specific set of circumstances that led you to your debt situation. Then they will ask your creditors to remove any past extraneous fees (like late fees or over-the-limit fees, if those apply to you) and to lower your interest rates. Once your balances and interest rates are lowered, you only make one monthly payment to the Christian debt negotiation company instead of several monthly payments to your creditors. Because of the reductions, you end up paying more of what you actually owed in the first place, and you will probably have all your debt paid off in five years or so.
