Anne Fundner lost her 15-year-old son, Weston, to fentanyl poisoning in 2022. Weston was a high school freshman, a kid who was loved, supported, and given every opportunity his family could provide.But in one moment of peer pressure, he took a pill he thought was something else. It contained fentanyl, and he never woke up that February morning.Anne has refused to let Weston's life be reduced to a statistic. Since his death, she has spoken on some of the biggest stages in the country, testified before Congress, and fought for legislation in his name.Now, she's focused on a message she believes every parent needs to hear: the importance of talking to kids about peer pressure. Anne says fentanyl took her son's life, but the avenue that led him there was peer pressure.In this episode of Grieving Out Loud, Anne shares Weston's story, what she wishes she could have done differently, and how she's working to prevent other families from experiencing the pain she knows all too well.Related episodes: Uniting for change: A bereaved mother organizes D.C. march to combat fentanyl crisisThe Cop Who Had to Investigate Her Own Daughter's DeathHe Wanted Justice for His Son, So He Became the InvestigatorSend us Fan MailBehind every number is a story of a life cut short, a family shattered, and a community devastated.They were...daughterssonsmothersfathersfriendswiveshusbandscousinsboyfriendsgirlfriends.They were More Than Just A Number.

At the climax of a graduating commencement ceremony in a certain Bible Institute in India, the entire graduation class rises to commit themselves to the Lord's work with these words: “Today, I stand as a dead man. I declare that in Jesus Crist, I am saved by His blood, and thus I am dead to sin, and no longer dead in my sin. Today, I stand and declare that I surrender my will and my life to His will and His life. I shall go where He sends me, without asking questions. I shall go to whomever He sends me,... Article Link

Episode Summary In this Bible teaching from 1 Corinthians 10:12–13, Bobby Bosler places two familiar verses back into Paul's warning against idolatry and compromise. The Corinthians could excuse disobedience either by assuming they were already standing or by believing their circumstances left them no way to obey. This episode calls young people to reject both pride and despair, flee compromise, surrender to Jesus Christ, and depend on the faithful God who always provides grace to obey. Topics Discussed The Corinthian context of idol participation and personal rights Israel's wilderness failures as a warning to believers Spiritual pride and the danger of merely thinking you stand Hidden compromise beneath an outwardly godly appearance Why temptation is common rather than uniquely hopeless God's faithfulness, control, and promised way of escape Surrender to Christ and dependence on the Holy Spirit Key Takeaways Outward spirituality does not excuse hidden areas of disobedience. Pride says no correction is needed, while despair says obedience is impossible. No temptation makes you uniquely abandoned or beyond God's care. God remains faithful and provides the strength either to escape temptation or endure it obediently. Victory comes through surrender to Christ and dependence on the Holy Spirit, not self-confidence. Stop justifying compromise and obey the truth God has already made clear. If you've been encouraged by this podcast, please take the time to give us a five-star rating and write a brief review.

The online sports media platform RG recently ran a piece on gambling addiction in adolescents and young adults. The story caught my eye as we here at CPYU believe that sports gambling is the next big frontier for adolescent addiction. Listen to what RG says about peer influence and the role of social circles in teen gambling: Peer influence plays a significant role in gambling behaviors among adolescents and young adults. During this stage, individuals are heavily influenced by their social circles, often adopting behaviors and attitudes that align with those of their peers. If gambling is normalized within a peer group, individuals may feel pressure to participate to gain social acceptance or maintain friendships. Social media and online communities frequently promote gambling as an exciting or glamorous activity, creating a digital environment that reinforces risky behavior.” Parents, talk to your kids about online gambling, and monitor their online activity to prevent them from taking part.

As a Christian single, few things feel as heavy as family pressure to “settle down.” Holiday gatherings, family reunions, or even casual phone calls can turn into well-meaning (or not-so-well-meaning) interrogations: “When are you getting married?” “Aren't you lonely?” or “You're not getting any younger!” For many believers, this pressure creates anxiety, guilt, and doubt about God's timing for their love life. If you're feeling overwhelmed by expectations from parents, siblings, or extended family, you're not alone. This article offers […] The post Dealing with Family Pressure to “Settle Down” as a Christian Single appeared first on Christian Singles Advice | Christian Dating Advice Tips.

WOW!!!

As our children enter the teenage years, more and more of their world begins to revolve around their peer group. While parents remain important and influential, our kids look increasingly to their peers for clues on what to believe, how to behave, and what to do in order to fit in. New research from Florida Atlantic University has found that different types of peers influence different aspects of a teenager's life. There are two specific groups of peers exerting influence. Researchers foundone's best friends shape a child's emotional state and academic behavior. They also found that the larger group of more popular peers exert an influence on how a child presents themselves in public and on social media. This reminds us that we need to be encouraging and making possible  for our kids Godly friendships that are positive. A good youth group situation can become a positive peer group, where not only is God's design for their lives taught, but practiced as well.

In this episode of the Tactical Living Podcast, hosts Coach Ashlie Walton and Sergeant Clint Walton talk about a problem that has existed in first responder culture for decades and is still costing lives today: the stigma around mental health (Amazon Affiliate) that keeps officers, firefighters, and EMS professionals from asking for the help they need. Despite growing awareness, despite more resources, and despite more open conversations than ever before — stigma is still winning. First responders are still suffering in silence, still choosing isolation over vulnerability, and still dying because the culture around them made asking for help feel more dangerous than the job itself. This episode does not sugarcoat it. It names it directly and talks about what it is actually going to take to change it.

Send us Fan MailThe overwhelming sensation we feel to be like others causes us to do things we don't want to do. When that becomes our identity, crisis inevitably follows. A lesson can be taken from King Saul of Israel. His decision to disobey God's command lost him the kingdom. His excuse was he feared the people. His sin was not justified, and the consequence of his sin plagued him the rest of his life. Saul of Tarsus, whom we know as the apostle Paul, was also subject to peer pressure. However, being unmoved by its influence, continued to strive for the gospel of liberty of Jesus Christ. Galatians 2 explains that there was strong influence to enforce the law on converted Christians. This was such a strong influence, Peter and Barbabus was swept away with it. Peer pressure is something we all feel, for good or ill. However, our stand for the gospel of Christ need be bolstered by the one who restores all to Himself in love. =====Searching for answers to life's questions? Need help finding a church?

Anthony Leahey joins Locked In with Ian Bick to share his story of growing up in the foster care system after being put up for adoption as a baby, nearly finding a stable home before being taken back and moved to Florida, where his life began to spiral. As a teenager, Anthony got into trouble and spent time in both youth and adult prisons in Florida before returning to New Jersey at 21, where a murder charge led to a 30-year sentence in state prison. In this episode, he talks about what led him down that path, what life was really like serving decades behind bars, and how he completely changed his life while incarcerated. Anthony also shares how he was given a second chance through clemency from the governor, the powerful moment of receiving forgiveness from the victim's family, and the lessons he learned through it all. _____________________________________________ #PrisonStory #30Years #TrueCrime #PrisonLife #ExInmate #LockedUp #SurvivalStory #LockedInPodcast _____________________________________________ Connect with Anthony Leahey: Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/groups/infamouslifersgroup YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a-R_-vNzaXM _____________________________________________ Hosted, Executive Produced & Edited By Ian Bick: https://www.instagram.com/ian_bick/?hl=en https://ianbick.com/ _____________________________________________ Shop Locked In Merch: http://www.ianbick.com/shop _____________________________________________ Timestamps: 00:00 From Foster Care to Prison (Full Story) 02:59 Childhood Trauma, Foster Care & Early Loss 07:02 Group Homes & Struggling as a Kid 10:08 From Juvenile Trouble to Florida Prison 15:55 Life in Prison as a Teen 21:52 Prison Violence, Survival & Sports 30:03 Release & Struggles Returning to New Jersey 34:03 Bad Decisions, Peer Pressure & Felony Charges 43:41 Arrest, Court & Taking Accountability 48:50 Forgiveness, Growth & Restorative Justice 01:03:27 Clemency & Getting a Second Chance 01:10:42 Reentry & Emotional Impact After Prison 01:18:01 Prison Advocacy & The Lifers Group 01:44:03 Health Issues & Problems in the Prison System 01:58:18 Life After Prison & Job Struggles 02:06:08 Advice, Lessons & Final Thoughts To advertise on the show, contact sales@advertisecast.com or visit https://advertising.libsyn.com/LockedInWithIanBicka Learn more about your ad choices.

Boost Agency Production with Daily Morning HuddlesMatt Dietz of Agency Launch shares a simple daily morning huddle structure designed to increase insurance agency production by keeping teams focused on measurable goals. He recommends a 5–10 minute status report that starts with the agency's monthly premium goal and current pace, then has each producer report premium written yesterday, quotes generated yesterday, plans for today, and what help they need. He advises giving CSRs measurable daily expectations as well—especially cross-sells—plus items like reviews, referrals, scheduled life appointments, or reviews, using the huddle to create accountability and motivation. Dietz suggests the owner report their own numbers too, save coaching and deeper conversations for weekly one-on-ones, and run daily huddles until consistent goal achievement. He also promotes texting his community and resources and mentions products at agencylaunch.net.00:00 Welcome to Agency Launch00:29 Free Texting Resources01:07 Why Daily Huddles Work01:37 Set the Premium Goal01:50 Run the 5 Minute Huddle03:26 Producer Daily Metrics04:16 CSR Goals and Cross Sells05:48 Peer Pressure and Accountability06:57 Lead by Example07:35 Weekly Coaching Check Ins08:31 When to Stop the Huddles09:04 Huddle Script Recap09:25 Wrap Up and Offers
