Apology or Divorce: Stoicess & Professor Weekly Touch-Base

Stoicess' Secret

Your two children are grown having their own families and live out-of-town. They decided this year to spend the holidays with their immediate family and not with you and your partner. Subsequently, your partner demands an apology from your children regarding such behavior. As you brushed off the request saying, “They are their own families now”, your partner became more aggressive demanding you have your children apologize or a divorce is forthcoming. You’re taken back, can’t believe what was said, but within two weeks later received the divorce papers. You now feel threatened of being under attack.

In this webinar, we discuss another Bible hero who was under the threat of attack while trying to rebuild the walls of a great city. The nations surrounding him were furious that he wanted to rebuild. Our hero knew of the odds against him and devised a plan that allowed him to complete his work. It’s the story that shows us the impact that a single individual (who is just like you) can have – even on an entire nation.

The moral of the story for us while on the job? “Whatever you do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks through Him to God the Father”. Apostle Paul (Colossians 3:17). It’s truly amazing what us mere mortals can do with God on our side!
