Christian actors struggle to find work in Hollywood.
Patricia Heaton - 2x Emmy award winner, co-star on Everybody Loves Raymond.
Says that observant Christians in Hollywood are considered “No fun, straight-laced misfits, or radical fundamentalists.”
Jim Caveziel - played Jesus in The Passion of the Christ.
(I’m not Jesus, I play Him in the movies.)
Warned by Mel Gibson that the role could be a “career ended.”
Very nearly did.
He had a hard time finding movie roles but eventually starred in the TV drama Person of Interest.
The temptation is to just give in and “go with the flow” in order to get ahead.
We all face the same struggle.
Holding firm to our beliefs and convictions (we fear) could cost us jobs, friends, family connections, opportunities.
Apostle Paul’s encouragement and example in 2 Cor.
6 help us to understand and emulate his desire to maintain his integrity.
This is a clear statement of integrity.
No matter what or who attempts to prevent him from fulfilling his loyalty to Christ, Paul would not be distracted or derailed.
He was singular in his beliefs and focus.
Integrity = being undivided and consistent in all areas of life.
Who you are in the ”dark” is the same as in the “light.”
It’s being undivided in all areas of life.
An Undivided Mind
Means we have the right values.
Bible calls it “double-minded, divided.”
An Undivided Will
We have the right Master.
Last week we talked about discerning whose opinion of us matters the most.
Similarly, who sets the direction of your life?
An Undivided Heart
We have the right passions.
Passion, in this context, describes anything that really grabs our attention.
It could be a hobby, sports, kids, politics, a cause.
Being a person of integrity means having a passion for godliness.
Becoming a Person of Integrity
Will this choice make me look good to Jesus or others?
Will this choice make me rich(er)?
Will this choice bring me fame?
Will this choice be criticized if I get caught?
