The man of integrity walks securely, but he who takes crooked paths will be found out. Proverbs 10:9
Who is Integrity?
Although Brian had been involved in landscaping since 1999, he found it hard to leave the security of a full-time job with insurance and benefits to pursue it full time. It was his dream and he spent much time in prayer about it, but it never seemed to work out.
When his wife passed away leaving him with three young children, he thought that dream was over. However, over the course of the next couple of years things seemed to fall into place.
After much more prayer, he realized this was God’s will for him to follow his passion full-time in 2013. It was through a chain of events set forth only by God that this was even a possibility, including meeting his current wife who is also a part of the business. Brian says that God gave him his business, so he will try to honor the Lord with it. The name is a reminder to him that he is to have integrity in business and be honoring to the One who gave it to him.
The cross in the logo is simply to remind all who see it of the sacrifice that Jesus made on our behalf to pay for our sin.
“For All Have Sinned and Fall Short of the Glory of God” Romans 3:23
For those who do not know of that sacrifice, let me explain. God is perfect, He created people and they sinned.(for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God -Romans 3:23) God, being holy and righteous, must judge sin.(for the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord -Romans 6:23) But He is also a God of love, so He sent His son Jesus down to earth to die on a cross in our place to pay for our sin.(But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still yet sinners, Christ died for us -Romans 5:8) 3 days later Jesus rose from the grave, defeating death and lives today!
Because of His grace, we can have a relationship with Him.(for by Grace you have been saved through faith; and that not of yourselves, it is a gift of God; not as a result of works, so that no one may boast -Ephesians 2:8-9) Jesus said that He came to give us life, and to give it more abundantly. All we must do is give our life over to Him.(If you confess with your mouth Jesus as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved; for with the heart a person believes, resulting in righteousness, and with the mouth he confesses, resulting in salvation. -Romans 10:9-10)

"The first thing they did was come out and talk to us about what we were wanting. They took pictures of the existing landscaping, then sent us pictures of what it would look like with the ideas that we together came up with. We were going to have the work done in the fall of 2017, but with Hurricane Harvey doing damage to our son & daughter-in-law's house in Houston, we requested that the work be delayed until spring. Integrity was very accommodating our request. The guys came in the spring and their work was exactly what we wanted. We couldn't be more pleased with the end results."
