Resisting Culture & Peer Pressure | Scripture Playlist
Spirituality allows us to see and believe in the world beyond the physical. God has a rich and satisfying plan for our lives, but it often means living differently than the culture around us. It’s very easy to compromise our convictions or change who we are to fit in with what we see. Spirituality not only resists the pressure to fit in with the world but also rises above it.
Listen to this Scripture Playlist to learn how to resist the culture of peer pressure so we can live the great life God has planned for us.

How to Renew an Aging Faith | Scripture Playlists
Our faith can be vibrant at any age, and God is deeply invested in helping our faith grow throughout our lives. The challenge is that the more years we spend on Earth, the more life we experience, which often comes with disappointment, struggles, and heartbreak.
