Moral backbone
Monday, 1 May 2006
We had a really good sermon yesterday evening, on Philippians 4:8-9, about how we must think and act Christianly. And if we do practice these virtues, Paul says, the God of peace will be with us. I wonder if us not feeling God-with-us means that we're not practicing virtue.
On that sort of note, recently Franci and I watched a seminar on real estate ethics (or lack thereof) by Neil Jenman. The website makes it look tacky, I know, but it's actually a very worthwhile talk. Whether Jenman's a Christian or not, he's definitely doing some good thinking – and with his conscience, not his wallet. Going into business soon myself, it's scary to realise how easily we can throw our moral backbone out the window when it's "just business".
