We'd LOVE your feedback. Shoot us a text!

This is part 3 of our discussion on How to Think About Stuff. This week's topic is Social Pressure. Even when we know we're right, there's that piece of us that wants to fit in. Some of us will sometimes go against our own values to be accepted by people around us- friends, classmates, the online community, my followers...

How do we hold on to our integrity when the pressure is on? What's Torah's angle on how to best resist social pressure?
