Proverbs says a good name is better than riches. A name becomes synonymous with character. What type of character is behind a good name and how do we cultivate a good name? Today, I'm sharing three examples of good character that make great names and how to remain steadfast when people slander your name.

Welcome to Sheeprews Faithful, the podcast to help you build fruitful Christian culture
