    Whom Have I Cheated? Series

    Contributed by Jeremiah Menyongai on Jul 2, 2013
     | 7,583 views

    One thing the church lacks is more people of character and integrity. Character and integrity are used synonymously, but there is a difference between the two. Character develops through individual situations, integrity finalizes codified virtues learned.
