10 Myths All Graduates Should Know

I heard David Chadwick share this in a sermon several years back


1. This world is all there is – I pray that you find that spiritual connectedness to God that becomes your core!

2. Your outsides are more important than your insides – We are bombarded with the notion about looks and beauty. The reality is that we should look for the content of a person’s heart and character

3. Your net worth defines your self-worth – Don’t chase the dollar

4. Your work will define you and your world – This becomes less and less true as you mature….I hope

5. Life is about getting more than you give (Note how close the word miserable is to miser) – It actually is about GIVING!

6. Older people have NO value – We are losing our history, plus people are living longer. We need to make sure we continue to give them value

7. Science has more authority than faith and scripture – It is that awesome connection to faith that gives us strength

8. You can have it all at one time – If it is too good to be true, then it is too good to be true

9. There is no absolute truth – Read the bible!

10. Only the strong survive – Remember those less fortunate!
