I'm not sure how to describe it...but I am on a serious quest for integrity. I want so desperately to be a man of integrity. The truth is...I'm not there yet. I fall short waaaaay too often. I sense God working in my life, calling me to higher standards. Currently up for scrutiny in my life:
- Stuff I watch on TV
- Movie choices
- The way I spend money
- The stuff that comes out of my mouth
- Stuff that comes across my computer screen (let's camp here for a moment)
At NewPointe, we have an Internet filter. I'm glad for that. I don't want stuff appearing on my screen, even accidentally, that is inappropriate (well, the problem is, maybe sometimes I DO, so that's why I'm glad there's a filter).
At home, I just installed ScrubIT. ScrubIT is a free recursive DNS server that regulates what comes into my home. Check it out...it's amazingly simple to install...and it's the only public recursive DNS server to actively filter pornography.
It's just one of many safeguards I'm putting in place in my quest for integrity.
What safeguards do you have in place--in any area of your life? I'm always looking for good ideas in my quest for clean hands and a pure heart.

Thanks for the tip on ScrubIT. Ry and I just downloaded it.
We too are looking for integrity and let me tell you it's VERY hard to find anyone with integrity these days. We figure we'll lead by example!
That's it! You lead by example! And I'll get the tip next time. :)
