Hargrave has been blessed to have Rev. Pope speak on several occasions. Tuesday’s message was based on Psalm 15 and the call to be men of integrity. In his message he encouraged the corps that becoming men of integrity starts with a relationship with the Lord who as quoted from Titus 1:2 “… which God, who cannot lie…” because God is truth and that being men of our word will strengthen the relationships in their lives.
