What would radical integrity look like? We, as a generation, have lost our integrity. We struggle to be true to our countries, our families, our friends, and even ourselves. Many in the church have abandoned integrity and been swept downward into a spiral of hypocrisy and finger-pointing. How can we be full of the character of the kingdom? For the answer, internationally-known worship leaders Sean Feucht and Andy Byrd asked their “mothers and fathers in the faith” to explain what integrity really means. The result is a compilation full of insight and vulnerability on how to walk with integrity in communication, ministry, marriage, family relationships, leadership, personal finances, and times of trial.
A must read!!! I found myself trying to make/find time just to read this book!
Sean Feucht and Andy Byrd start the first chapter & end the book with a great conclusion. The rest is made up of chapters from incredible men and women of faith! Each, speaks from a place of deep intimacy with God and true integrity!
We often times read about heroes of the faith from 50-60 years back, but it's encouraging because these are the leaders we have within the Body of Christ TODAY! Men and women who understand the suffering and joy of completely abandoning themselves to God, who embrace the fire of the trials of life, and testify boldly to His overwhelming goodness
This book challenges true followers of Jesus to live right and stand tall, all by His grace for His glory. I cried, laughed, & felt convicted through these powerful testimonies!
Each chapter is written by a different charismatic leader - generals of the modern day faith. The book was vast in scope and provided aspects of living a life of integrity that I didn’t foresee or expect. What I appreciated was that each writer applied the characteristics of integrity to different aspects of the Christian life based on their own personal lived experience and, often difficult, journey. So by reading the book, the reader gets a vast, rich and deep understanding of what living a life of integrity to your design and calling truly is. I would recommend this book for anyone wanting a deeper understanding of what integrity applied in the Christian life is.
I’ve been enjoying to read this book. Hearing stories from different people and organizations has been really good. Getting different input how Integrity looks like in different areas of our life. Not only emotional & mental but also financially.
Besides this I’ve been impacted of the richness of the Word of God - how He designed Integrity and how it really looks like! It all started by His love for us.
Sean Feucht in his new book, “Integrity” published by Whitaker House brings us the Character of the Kingdom.
From the back cover: We, as a generation have lost our integrity.
We are not true to our countries, our families, our friends, or even ourselves. Integrity is left in the dust as we chase what the world wants: the perfect body, the biggest bank account, and the most power. Many in the church have abandoned integrity and been swept downward into a spiral of hypocrisy and finger–pointing. The need for radical Christian integrity to spread throughout the world has never been greater.
But what would radical integrity look like?
For the answer, internationally–known worship leader Sean Feucht asked his “mothers and fathers in the faith” to explain what integrity means in their lives.
With chapters from James Goll, Darlene Cunningham, Heidi Baker, Dick Mills, Charlie Stock, Stacey Campbell, Allen Hood, Ché Ahn, and Cindy Jacobs, the result is a book full of insight and vulnerability from these leaders on how to walk with integrity through your communication, your ministry, your marriage, your family relationships, your leadership, your personal finances, and your times of trial.
The Dictionary defines “integrity”, from the Latin integritās, as: “adherence to moral and ethical principles; soundness of moral character; honesty.” Why do people go to museums and spend a lot of time there? Obviously they go to soak in the items of value that are stored there. The art on the walls, the sculptures that have been created. All these items replenish the spirit and birth a new desire to duplicate what these artists have done. I believe that this is precisely what Sean Feucht has done with the ten chapters written by the various ministers. Their honesty is just like the wonderful art on the Gallery walls they birth a desire to duplicate what they have done. I believe that this is a book that you will read all the way through more than once. I believe it is a book that you will refer back to certain sections more than once. I recommend this book highly! I recommend it as a gift for friends and family so that they can change to the Character of the Kingdom as well.

Pick up this book and read it... Each contributor speaks from a place of deep intimacy with God and true integrity. I was challenged, encouraged, and motivated by this book. If embraced, the teaching of this book will bring about radical change.
Any time you have a compilation of authors the final result will be a mixed bag. Some of the essays I enjoyed more than others. The strength of the Pentecostal perspective is that there is always a sense of joyful expectation of what God is about to do. The weakness is that at times the overarching message is incoherent. Both were present here.
