Have you struggled with compromise or conformity? That’s the question we are going to talk about today.  This discussion is going to be the first in a series, all based on a study of Daniel Chapter 1 and corresponding to articles posted on the website.  The big idea we will be discussing is how you can navigate pressure – specifically, the pressure to compromise or conform in an unhealthy or immoral way – without deviating from your values.  It's really going to be a discussion of how to lead and live with excellence without compromising your faith.  And today, that begins with an understanding of the most important lesson:  What you believe and how you live go together. 

Thank you, everybody. This is Jeff McMaster, and you have been listening to the Leadership Ezra podcast, where we connect biblical truth with wisdom, and apply it to the practice of leadership. Come back next time to hear me once again connect these dots of Faith…Wisdom…and Leadership. And don't forget to order a copy of my book, “Leadership Ezra,” available on Amazon.
