Integrity is defined as adherence to moral and ethical principles and honesty. It involves doing the right thing even when no one is watching. As Christians, our morals come from the teachings of Jesus Christ in the Bible. Several Bible verses emphasize the importance of integrity, such as Proverbs which says those who act with integrity walk securely while the unfaithful will be found out. The Bible teaches that Christians develop integrity by renewing their minds to the image of God and choosing each day to do what is right according to their faith.
