Integrity Church Greenville

In Revelation 2:12–17, Jesus speaks to the church in Pergamum—a church that had remained faithful in a difficult and hostile environment, yet had begun to drift into dangerous compromise. Jesus sees their endurance, but He also lovingly confronts the ways they have allowed the world around them to shape their allegiance. Following Jesus means more than standing firm when faith is tested; it means wholehearted allegiance to Jesus in every area of our lives. The danger of compromise is that dri...

In Week 2 of our Lampstand Letters series, we turn to Jesus’ letter to the suffering church in Smyrna. Revelation 2:8–11 gives us an honest picture of the cost of following Jesus, while offering a hope that is stronger than our suffering: Jesus has enough life for our death.

Yet He calls them to remain faithful, even when following Him becomes costly and even when life...

He desires not simply our service, our commitment, or ...

In Week 6 of our These Things You've Heard Me Say series, we come to Paul's final charge to Timothy in 2 Timothy 4. Paul looks back on a life faithfully lived for Jesus and looks forward to the completion of his race, reminding us that gospel legacy is the result of a life submitted to Jesus and His mission. A gospel legacy isn't built through recognition, success, or simply being remembered. It is formed through a lifetime of faithfulness—preaching the gospel, enduring hardship, following Je...

In Week 5 of our These Things You've Heard Me Say series, Paul reminds Timothy that disciples of Jesus find life in God's Word. Scripture is not merely information to study or a collection of teachings to admire—it is God's Word given to shape, correct, equip, and transform His people. As disciples, we are invited to build our lives on the truth of Scripture, trusting God's Word to form us into people who are equipped for every good work. In a world filled with competing voices and ideas, we ...
