Testing The Strength Of Your Base

Public integrity is just your inner character exposed for everyone to see. In this episode of Built to Last, we dive into the story behind "Old Ironsides" and peek into Daniel’s open windows in Babylon. The real question is how do you stick to your faith when the world’s watching and the pressure’s on?

When building something meant to last, critics and internal doubts will always claim it's impossible. Discover how to bring your questions to Jesus and stand firm when uncertainty hits.

Anyone can make it through a tough time, but holding your own when you’re face-to-face with a crowd demands a whole new level of courage. Stop worrying about how many people are against you. Focus on what you already have, lean into that and trust that God’s strength is more than enough when it feels like everything's working against you.

Storms have a way of revealing what you’re made of. That’s when roots matter most. In this next part of our Built to Last series, let’s talk about why it’s not the intensity of the storm that seals your fate, it’s who’s in the boat with you. Presence makes all the difference.

With your foundation solid, it’s time to settle in and keep going. Faith isn’t flashy or about huge, dramatic moments. It’s the little things, like sticking to your habits, listening when things are quiet, showing up day after day for God. That’s what keeps you steady. When you hold onto that, nothing knocks you off track.

So, you’ve found your Spiritual True North. Now what? It’s time to start building something solid that actually lasts. If you really want to stay steady when life gets tough, you need to know how strong your foundation is. Testing it isn’t just a good idea, it’s what makes all the difference.
