Back to Episodes50. Resisting Cultural Lies: Helping the Next Generation Find Their Identity in Christ with Elizabeth Woodson
Description
How can we help the next generation stand firm in a culture constantly shaping their beliefs, values, and identity?
In this episode of the ETCH Next Gen Podcast, Chuck Peters sits down with author and Bible teacher Elizabeth Woodson to discuss her book, The Seven Habits of Resistance. Together, they explore the cultural pressures facing young people today—from social media-driven identity formation to the rise of individualism and self-centered definitions of truth, love, and success.
Elizabeth shares practical insights on helping students and young adults recognize and resist the cultural lies surrounding identity, relationships, justice, joy, hope, and the pursuit of the good life. She emphasizes the importance of rooting identity in Christ rather than achievement, embracing self-sacrificial love, and finding true belonging within the local church.
The conversation also examines spiritual practices such as fasting, meditation on Scripture, and meaningful community that can help believers develop resilience and faithfulness in a challenging cultural moment.
