Episode #241 The Teachings of Jesus Christ & Stoicism W/Rob Nielsen
Stoicism is a philosophical movement and practical guide to living, emphasizing daily self-discipline and moralimprovement, which originated in the Hellenistic period of ancient Greece and proliferated well into the Roman Imperial period. Ancient Stoics believed that the universe operated according to reason, constructed from ideals of rational discourse. These ideals constitute virtue, whichis necessary for the Stoic goal of 'living a well-reasoned life'. But how does this involve the teachings of Savoir? Well today on the podcast I have on Rob Nielsen who has just published a book the topic title “Jesus The Stoic Sage”. During the course of our conversation, we explore striking parallels between the words of Jesus Christ and the wisdom of Stoic masters like Epictetus, Seneca, and Marcus Aurelius. Along the way we talk about principles such as, finding peace in the midst of personal crisis, becoming a self-actualized person, TempleCovenants, and more. I have read Rob’s book and highly recommend it. You can find the link to the book below.
