"…Ninthly, that meekness is invincible, where it is genuine, and sincere without hypocrisy. For, what can the most insolent do to you, if you stedfastly persist in kindness to him, and, upon occasion, mildly admonish and instruct him thus, at the very time he is attempting to do you an injury?.."
This week, I am reading a quote from Meditations by Marcus Aurelius, written around 171 AD.
Reflection questions:
- How do you approach donors with opinions that are different to your own?
- How can you be intentional about showing kindness and gently instructing while being secure in your cause?
