IS IT MORAL AND ETHICAL FOR CHRISTIANS TO ENROLL IN DEBT SETTLEMENT PROGRAMS?
Yes, debt settlement is both a legal and a moral way Christians often seek debt relief. Creditors are willing to settle the balance of a debt if they realize the debtor is in severe hardship and is facing the possibility of bankruptcy as the only solution to their debt problems. The creditors willingly participate in the negotiation process in determining the amount they believe to be a fair offer on the total balance due.
