Reputation

A good name is to be more desired than great wealth, Favor is better than silver and gold. Proverbs 22:1 Earn a reputation for living well in God's eyes and the eyes of the people. Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don't try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God's voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he's the one who will keep you on track. Proverbs 3:4-6 (MSG) First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is being reported all over the world. Romans 1:8 ReputationReputation

Do you find people caring about their reputation? How did Jesus view His reputation? How does God go about caring for His own reputation? How does His reputation impact our lives? ReputationReputation

ReputationReputation News of this reached the ears of the church at Jerusalem, and they sent Barnabas to Antioch. When he arrived and saw the evidence of the grace of God, he was glad and encouraged them all to remain true to the Lord with all their hearts. He was a good man, full of the Holy Spirit and faith, and a great number of people were brought to the Lord. Acts 11:22-24 How would you describe Barnabas’s reputation? How can we obtain a reputation that is pleasing to God?
