In week four of our message series. “EPIC,” Pastor Brian talked about conforming to and tolerating the world around us. We deal with the pressure to have as much as our neighbors or our relatives; we deal with the pressure to give our kids all that we never had growing up; we deal with the pressure to succeed and be significant, and we deal with the pressure to portray a certain image. Yet as Christ followers, we are called to be different. We have been called, not to conform, not to bow, not to bend, but to lead, to change things around us, to be a positive presence in a very difficult world.
