- Carl Lambert: Character is what you do in the dark. Isn't that what Christ teaches us? In the Gospel of Matthew (Chapter 6, Verse 3), it is written, "But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing." American evangelist Dwight L. Moody is credited for coining the phrase, "Character is what you are in the dark."
