Listen to the latest 60 second episode of Integrity Moments with Rick Boxx
In this series, we’re pondering the Ten Commandments. The seventh commandment, when violated in the workplace, can have a devastating effect on so many lives and even on the business itself.
Recently, Dan called me for prayer and counsel. One of Dan’s managers had hired a temporary worker, and then almost immediately he had sex with this employee!
Both Dan’s manager and the temporary worker were married. This one moment of pleasure resulted in Dan receiving hateful calls from one of the spouses, a potential sexual harassment lawsuit against Dan’s manager and the company, and two devastated marriages.
Exodus 20:14 says, “You shall not commit adultery.”
The workplace is full of sexual temptation. When we allow temptation to overcome us, our momentary pleasure leaves devastation and destruction in its wake.
