The world is always pulling us toward itself with new voices, new trends, new outrage, new fear. But the Christian life is not lived by chasing the crowd; it is lived by pressing into and abiding in Christ. When you are rooted in Him, you don’t sway with every headline or bend with every opinion. Stability comes from staying planted in the Word of God. The crowd may be loud, but Christ is Lord. “As you therefore have received Christ Jesus the Lord, so walk in Him, rooted and built up in Him and established in the faith, as you have been taught, abounding in it with thanksgiving” (Colossians 2:6–7).
