What drives you? Whose approval matters most to you? The praise of our peers often drives us. We talk about peer pressure influencing teens. However, we often fail to acknowledge that we, as adults, allow approval pressure to affect us, too. Religious leaders are not immune to this temptation. If the approval of others is what matters most, Satan will find a way to use our need for affirmation to corrupt our message. We must know why we do what we do and say what we say. We must not "spin" things just so we look good. We are not to do what we do to be accepted. What should matter most to us? God's approval, appreciation, and affirmation must matter most!
