Street Smarts: When No One is Watching (Proverbs 10:9)

What kind of person are you when no one is watching? In this message from Proverbs 10:9, Preaching Minister Gordon Dabbs, Ph.D., explores the quiet power of integrity, diligence, and faithfulness. Character is not built in one dramatic moment. It is formed through thousands of ordinary choices: keeping your word, doing honest work, admitting when you are wrong, and showing up even when no one is there to applaud. Through humor, practical wisdom, and the unforgettable story of a young towel seller on Copacabana Beach, we will see that God can use even the most ordinary moments of work and responsibility for purposes far greater than we can imagine. Jesus did not come simply to help us look better. He came to make us whole. “Whoever walks in integrity walks securely.” — Proverbs 10:9
