There is a Native American concept of knowledge that claims that people do not really know something until it falls from their heads to their hearts. The GOAL program is really all about helping you become the person God would have you to be. It is not just your head and what you know. It is your heart who you are that is of the greatest effect in touching the lives of others. The verse we study today talks about goodness, self-control, perseverance, godliness, brotherly kindness, and love.
Scripture also discusses the importance of integrity, character, honesty, and putting others first.
