Scriptures: Daniel 1, Genesis 39

Success in life is determined by knowing where the boundaries are and staying within those bounds. In life, a boundary is a personal line that marks the "yes" side of our lives and the "no" side of our lives. Crossing legal, moral, financial or sexual boundaries can bring destruction and disgrace. How do you know where the boundaries lie? They're found in the Word of God and the will of God.

"The Bible makes it plain that there are times we need to confront other people when they are wanting us to cross a boundary and say, 'No, that behavior does not fit within the boundaries of my life and I will not participate in that.'" --Dr. Merritt
