In this episode of my podcast, I had the privilege of speaking with Bridget Dube, a legal practitioner at the Ministry of Justice, Legal, and Parliamentary Affairs in Zimbabwe. Bridget shared powerful insights on living with integrity in the workplace, especially for Christians who may find themselves facing pressure to compromise their values.

Throughout the conversation, Bridget offered wisdom on how Christians can navigate situations where their faith is challenged—particularly when their bosses or clients may ask them to act in ways that go against their beliefs. With humility and grace, she shared personal stories of how she has confronted such challenges and stayed true to her faith, handling these conflicts with absolute meekness. Her experiences were not only inspiring but also practical, showing that it is possible to stand firm in faith while maintaining professionalism and respect for others.

Bridget highlighted several key scriptures that encourage us to be the true light and salt that God calls us to be in the world. She drew parallels to the story of Daniel and his three Hebrew friends, who, even while living in Babylon, upheld their faith and carried an excellent spirit in all they did. Bridget reminded us that, like them, we are called to shine in our workplaces, even when the environment may feel like a challenging Babylon.

Her message was one of hope, urging listeners to remain steadfast in their faith and to trust that God will guide us through difficult situations. Whether at work or in everyday life, we are to reflect the excellence, integrity, and meekness that Christ embodies.

May this conversation encourage and strengthen you, dear listener, to carry your faith with courage and integrity, knowing that God is with you in every workplace He has called you to.

In this episode of Legal Wise Wednesday, we delved into an important topic that many people may not fully understand: LENYALO! The distinctions between customary marriage, civil marriage, and cohabitation. We explored the legal implications of each, helping listeners better navigate the different types of relationships and their rights.

We started by explaining a customary marriage under the south African law, which is typically based on traditional practices and is recognized by certain cultural norms. Next, we looked at civil marriage, which is formalized through the state and involves a legal contract between two parties.

Finally, we discussed cohabitation, where two people live together without formalizing the relationship through either customary or civil marriage. We emphasized the importance of understanding that cohabiting couples may not have the same legal protections or rights as married couples, which can have significant implications for property, inheritance, and other legal matters.

Throughout the episode, we encouraged our audience to consider their options carefully, emphasizing the importance of legal education when deciding which type of marriage or relationship to enter into. Understanding the legal framework around marriage is crucial for protecting one's rights and ensuring that all parties involved are clear on the expectations and responsibilities that come with their relationship.

This episode was a call to action for listeners to take the time to educate themselves about the legal nuances of marriage and cohabitation, ensuring that they make informed decisions that align with their values and protect their interests.

In this episode, we dive into a powerful conversation with Adv. Keith, who brings a compelling argument on the topic of abortion, exploring its impact on both the mother and society. With a mix of spiritual insight and scientific backing, Keith outlines the harm abortion can cause, not only to the woman but to society as a whole. While the right to choose abortion is widely promoted, Keith emphasizes the importance of showing women the truth about what happens during the procedure. Drawing from studies by professors that confirm life begins at conception, he calls on the church to come alongside pregnant women, offering support and making abortion a harder choice for them.

If you've had an abortion, this episode is for you—it offers healing, hope, and encouragement from a loving and forgiving Father. If you're considering an abortion, you'll be challenged to think about the long-term effects. And for those who want to support others in these situations, Keith shares practical ways the church, lawyers, and doctors can all play a vital role in helping. This conversation is filled with insight, and I hope you find it impactful. Enjoy!

To explore this, Dr. Tee sits down with special guest Miss Sarah Giles, a political expert and fellow believer. She offers valuable insights on why it's important for Christians to engage in politics and how they can navigate this challenging landscape. Don’t miss this enlightening discussion!

History often tells us that Christianity is a religion for white people, but have you ever stopped to ask who wrote that history and whether it's actually true?
