Integrity moments - Unequally Yoked – Part V By: Rick Boxx Many executives receive stock or stock options in the business they serve. This can surface a concern about being “unequally yoked” when the leader of the business is not a believer. Just as an employee working for an employer is not usually yoked in a contractual or covenantal way, the addition of a small percentage of stock does not usually warrant concern about being unequally yoked. If the amount becomes significant to you, it can, however, lead you to be tempted to pursue profit at any cost. Matthew 16:26 teaches, “What good will it be for a man if he gains the whole world, yet forfeits his soul? Or what can a man give in exchange for his soul?” Receiving stock can be a blessing, but avoid its related temptations.
