Under Pressure

Through this month’s series, Under Pressure, we’ll explore three unique kinds of pressure we all experience: internal pressure, peer pressure, and pressure to always stay “connected.”

Internal pressure tells us the story that we must always be better... that we have to do all the things to meet everyone’s expectations... and yet, throughout scripture, God invites us into a different story of grace, rest, and faithfulness. Peer pressure is a little different in that it comes from the outside in. Often it is more subtle than movies portray, but it can still have a profound effect on us by moving us away from who God created us to be. Lastly, we’ll talk about the pressure to always stay “connected” through our phones and social media. We’ll explore the good and harm this brings, while inviting curiosity about what true connection looks like.
