We must pursue integrity with a 3- year plan

Why?

1. Because the world has a long-term plan for your life.

a. They want to change your language.

b. They want to change your lifestyle.

c. They want to change your name.

2. Because short-term integrity can't bear the weight of worldliness.

a. Worldliness = Ocean waves (they keep coming!)

b. Conformity is the goal.

3. Because integrity looks substantially different than worldliness.

4. Because God prospers man when he honors God.

How?

1. By fixing your heart.

- When your heart is set (convinced), it doesn't matter where you go (location).

2. Live godly respectfully.

"Nobody really listens to what you're saying until they are fully convinced by your actions that you have something of value to say." - Unknown Author

Every believer must share in the call of Christ's suffering.

1. Our salvation is distinct but our calling is identical.

2. Generational placement must not dictate our response to God's transcendent calling.

3. A biblical call produces expectations of suffering.

" I believe that if we build our lives on the solid rock of Jesus and his words, then when the storms come we will not only survive, we'll gain strength." -Steve Smith
