Dave Ramsey&#8217;s Former Listeners Say Yes<\/h2>\n<p>In <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=1%20Corinthians%206%3A1-11&#038;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">1 Corinthians 6<\/a>, the Apostle Paul wrote that lawsuits between Christians are a defeat. However, a group of 17 former listeners of Christian finance expert and radio host Dave Ramsey are suing him for more than $150 million.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p>\u201cThe lawsuit alleges that Ramsey, Timeshare Exit Team and Happy Hour Media Group, a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/papa-john-says-pr-company-planted-racism-allegations-after-he-would-not-pay-6m\/\" title=\"\u2018Papa John\u2019 Says PR Company Planted Racism Allegations After He Would Not Pay M\">marketing firm<\/a> with ties to Brandon Reed, one of the founders of Timeshare Exit Team, violated the Washington Consumer Protection Act by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/dems-facing-pressure-to-return-funds-from-sam-bankman-fried\/\" title=\"Dems Facing Pressure to Return Funds From Sam Bankman-Fried\">defrauding customers<\/a>, committed \u2018negligent malpresentation\u2019 and were guilty of \u2018unjust enrichment\u2019 and conspiracy.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>The suit stems from Ramsey&#8217;s endorsement of Timeshare Exit Team, a company that settled a lawsuit with the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/cuomo-must-resign-if-cover-up-of-nursing-home-deaths-proven-stefanik\/\" title=\"Cuomo Must Resign If \u2018Cover-Up\u2019 of Nursing Home Deaths Proven: Stefanik\">state attorney general&#8217;<\/a>s office in 2021 over <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/president-of-flag-nick-adams-pitches-plan-to-purchase-washington-commanders-and-change-name-back-to-redskins\/\" title=\"President of FLAG Nick Adams Pitches Plan to Purchase Washington Commanders and Change Name Back to Redskins\">alleged deceptive business practices<\/a>. According to the complaint, Ramsey received up to $30 million over seven years to promote the company&#8217;s services.<\/p>\n<p>Ramsey stuck by the company even as allegations of fraud surfaced, accusing &#8220;government officials, reporters and the timeshare industry&#8221; of conspiring against it. Eventually, he dropped Timeshare Exit Team as an advertiser but continued to argue that he was not responsible for its actions.<\/p>\n<p>While Paul restricts legal action between believers, Jesus outlined a process for handling disputes in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Matthew+18%3A15-17&#038;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matthew 18<\/a>. The 17 plaintiffs in this lawsuit allege that Timeshare Exit Team offered bad advice, created &#8220;fake property deeds&#8221; to mislead clients, and eventually stopped communicating with them altogether.<\/p>\n<p>Regardless of the outcome, Christians should consider how they treat others, even those with whom they disagree. As Paul wrote in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.biblegateway.com\/passage\/?search=Colossians%204%3A5-6&#038;version=ESV\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Colossians<\/a>, &#8220;Walk in wisdom toward outsiders, making the best use of the time. Let your speech always be gracious, seasoned with salt, so that you may know how you ought to answer each person.&#8221;<\/p>\n<h3>Key Takeaways:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>17 former listeners of Christian finance expert Dave Ramsey are suing him for more than $150 million over his endorsement of Timeshare Exit Team.<\/li>\n<li>The suit alleges that Ramsey, the company, and a marketing firm violated the Washington Consumer Protection Act.<\/li>\n<li>While Paul restricts legal action between believers, Christians should consider how they treat others, even those with whom they disagree.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christians suing Christians goes against the teachings of the Apostle Paul in 1 Corinthians 6.
