This is a powerful perspective. I really appreciate how it highlights something Christianity has always taught—that true strength doesn’t come from carrying everything on your own, but from a relationship with the Father. Discipline and self-control matter, but they were never meant to replace grace, identity, and being known and loved by God. The contrast between the “inner citadel” and the “kingdom within” is especially meaningful—one is built by effort, the other is received. That reminder brings the focus back to what makes Christianity so unique: we’re not doing life alone.
I am blown away by you and your wisdom. My daughter considers herself a Stoic and it's actually not getting her anywhere. She's usually about to pop politically, wound for sound, making our grandkids fearful. My heart is sad - but His peace and love is what I carry with me into that fire. All three of our adult kids are lost spiritually. I have great faith that they will come back to a deeper personal relationship with the Father. Someday. Like me. I've never been lost - I just needed to go deeper. Thank you for this piece. I'd love to receive your work. I can also donate or pay. I'm at debtraceyphoto@gmail.com Enjoy the precious time with your family. ox
Quite an unintended reveal by Ryan Holiday. Can't unsee that. The cause of his rage furthers doubt because it's being directed at a rather shallow and unimportant happenstance. Ivanka Trump rattles The Daily Stoic? Is there an official approved list of who can read Marcus Aurelius?
All Truth is God’s Truth. The Stoics had a good deal of truth. They didn’t have critical elements of Truth which only Christ can provide.
Good insight that Paul spoke to Greeks in a language they could understand. He could also speak to Hebrews in a language they could understood. He understood what it meant to be all things to all men without compromising Truth.
didn’t holiday fall out with his father…over politics? maybe sorta tough to have a relationship with the Father if one can’t get past one’s relationship with their father?
