EXCELLENCE
Ellen G. White states, “Higher than the highest human thought can reach is God’s ideal for His children. Godliness,—Godlikeness—is the goal to be reached.”
INTEGRITY
“Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things” (Philippians 4:8)
Stephen Covey defines integrity as the wholeness of character, the foundation of conscience. In like manner, Stephen Carter believes that integrity is a personal and corporate discernment of right from wrong; thoughtfully identify the pathway of upright living; and to choose to consistently walk the pathway even if it requires great personal sacrifice or institutional cost.
