If you're ready to invest in the content of your character, join bestselling author James Merritt as he looks at 12 role models who reveal the traits that are essential to godly character. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><b>"I don't know of a more important topic now than this, and I don't know anyone more qualified to speak on it than James Merritt." <br> --Rick Warren, <i>New York Times</i> bestselling author, <i>The Purpose Driven Life</i></b> <p/><b>Stop Protecting Your Reputation. Start Building Your Character.</b> <p/> In a world of social media snapshots and cable news sound bites, we're often more concerned with our outer image than we are with our inner make up. But in the end, integrity trumps image. You can <i>look</i> good on the outside without <i>being</i> good on the inside. <p/> If you long to commit yourself to what matters most--the content of your character--join bestselling author James Merritt as he explores 13 overlooked traits that form the bedrock of a godly life and a good society. Along the way, you'll encounter surprising role models--flawed people who failed spectacularly, overcame adversity, and went on to live lives worth imitating. <p/> In a world that has abandoned the virtues and values that matter, this book offers a clarion call to return to a simple message: Character <i>still </i>counts. It always has, and it always will. <br><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"<i>Character Still Counts</i> is a necessary chalice of cool water in the desert of our anything-goes era.
