In honor of Fidelity Month, here are ways to promote “Fidelity to God” by Robert L. Millet.
Fidelity is a word that we seldom hear or speak of today. In fact, I think I have not heard that word spoken more than a few times in recent years.

It is, in fact, a quality of one’s character that defines and describes his or her devotion and allegiance to some person or principle. A few synonyms of fidelity include faithfulness, loyalty, constancy, integrity, reliability, and devotion.
