If there is one word that describes the meaning of character, it is the word honor. Without honor, civilization would not long exist. Without honor, there could be no dependable contracts, no lasting marriages, no trust or happiness. What does the word honor mean to you?

The Lord works from the inside out. The world works from the outside in. The world would take people out of the slums.

The world would shape human behavior, but Christ can change human nature.
