Scripture: 'Let me be united with all who fear you, with those who know your laws.' Psalms 119:79 Application: In the 1950's, psychologist Solomon Asch scientifically demonstrated how people adapt their views to the beliefs and opinions of people around them. Even things that a person knows are absolutely wrong eventually will be accepted as true by many people if their associates consistently suggest those things are right. We call this "peer pressure." For this reason, we must build our strongest bonds with others who believe in Christ as Savior and hold God in highest esteem. Prayer: Although we will be in contact with beautifully diverse people of the world, please keep us surrounded, influenced, and supported by Christian friends, dear Lord. Amen. Comments are closed.
