It’s Judgement day, and the Book of Life is open. You are called forth to give an account and an angel is standing nearby to verify. What will your account be like? Have you, being a Christian lived up to its holy name? Have you let your light shine in the earth as our Savior strongly admonishes us? The Integrity of Christianity is not a subject of debate among Christians because the truth is Christianity defines integrity and not the other way around. Too often we make the mistake of giving our definition of how a Christian should conduct himself in various situations. This book will delve deep into the subject matter to give followers of Christ a clearer understanding of where we are in our walk with Christ, not to judge anyone but to provide insight on integrity and thus make better choices in our daily walk when facing certain circumstances.

Integrity has been an essential component of leadership throughout the ages. The Church is facing an integrity crisis; consistently struggling with a plethora of ethical woes among several gifted leaders. Not only is the Churchs conduct in question, its very character and competence are being placed under intense scrutiny. This book explores three dimensions of integrity. It proposes that the overall process of leadership development pivots on three dimensions of integrity: personal integrity (the character of the leader), vocational integrity (the competence of the leader) and organizational integrity, (the commitment and contribution of the leader). This book also proposes that while being gifted is an asset to leadership; giftedness is never enough for successful leadership. It is the combination of giftedness + integrity3 that will facilitate effective leadership.

Integrity means both honesty and wholeness. Alan Sell examines this concept by posing some searching questions: Is Christian thought an intruder in secular education? How are crucial Christian doctrines to be held together? On what grounds should churches address ethical issues? Does Christian disunity deny the gospel? Is Christian mission justifiable in a pluralistic world? How can local churches become better centers of pastoral integrity? Sell addresses each of these important issues in separate chapters of this scholarly yet readable book.
