In this episode of Foundation with Steve Teed we are looking to ask ourselves the question of who do we really follow? We start with a disturbing trend on Tiktok that is being followed by children that have lethal consequences. Although it may be a story about children the question that remains for us is if we are following the trends of the world or the foundational teachings of Jesus? The second story is asking the question of are we willing to follow Jesus even when it isn't popular. We ask this by looking at a restaurant that canceled the reservations of a Christian organization just hours before it was to be fulfilled all because the restaurant found out about the organization's Christian values.
