Whether you have given your life to the Lord recently OR you gave your life to the Lord when you were younger and walked away from God OR you have been faithfully serving God for a while, this episode is for you! Going all in with Jesus is super important, not just to me, but to God! John 1:12, when you received Jesus as your Lord, you became a child of God, a daughter of the Most High King. God thinks of you as His daughter, and He’s committed to being a good Father to you. Luke 10:20, God actually wrote your name in heaven. Many times, we can feel like we’ve been overlooked, but God knows you! Your name is known in heaven. You are known by the Creator of the universe! 2 Corinthians 5:17, when you got saved, you became a new creation! From the inside, your heart and your spirit have been made known to God. You have been forgiven. You have a plan that you were created for that you were created to fulfill on this earth. You were not just created to exist! Ephesians 2:10, while you are God’s special creation, you were also created for good works. Jeremiah 29:11, God’s plans for you are good and not evil. You don’t have to spend the rest of your life trying to figure life out. Next Steps: 1. Water Baptism- after you have made Jesus Lord, this is a way to show publicly what God has already done for you on the inside of you. 2. 6 Steps to Discipleship- apply these immediately, but don’t expect perfection Spend time in the Bible daily. Spend time in prayer daily. Get connected in a good Bible-based church, a church that teaches the Word of God and is full of life, that emphasizes a relationship with Jesus Christ. When you mess up, run to God! Make that your first response. He is still your answer. Do life with others who are following Jesus. Tell others what God has done in your life. The goal of these steps isn’t perfection, but growth with God. When you receive Jesus, God Almighty now lives inside of you!

I would be lying if I said that I never had to fight it. There are times when other things get my attention, and I have to fight those feelings.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! This week, we’re going to talk about the faith of Caleb and Joshua. Joshua and Caleb, when they, along with 10 other spies were faced with a big challenge, they were the only two that chose to put their faith in God instead of bowing down and giving into their circumstances. Ladies, we have a choice when it comes to facing big challenges. Are we going to complain about our problems, give up all hope, and let the enemy steal our victory or are we going to put our trust in God and not move on the promises He has given us?

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Can God Really Use Me? It’s time to get rid of excuses! So many times, we disqualify ourselves from being used by God, saying things like, “God could never use me. I’m a mess up. I don’t even have friends. I’m afraid to talk to people. Or whatever other excuse we come up with. God doesn’t want to use you because you’re perfect and have everything together. He wants to use you because you are available and because you know that the only way you can win is with God.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Frogs vs. Princes: Who are you attracting? 👑 Are you currently dating, waiting to date, or maybe even hiding a relationship? This week, we’re getting real about the types of guys out there and why waiting is actually your greatest superpower. Inspired by the incredible training "Princes Take Longer than Frogs" by Dr. Doug Weiss (Psychologist and founder of Heart to Heart Counseling Center), we are breaking down the characteristics of the guys you'll meet and why your "Glow" deserves a Prince, not a Frog. 🐸 What a "Frog" Looks Like: Frogs are often motivated by their own insecurities and secret habits. Watch out for these red flags: Motivation by Fear: They use guilt trips like, “If you loved me, you would do _____.” Secret Sins: Many young men are struggling with porn addiction; what he does in secret will eventually hurt you. The "Win" Mentality: They are liars who tell you exactly what you want to hear just to "win" you. 👑 What a "Prince" Looks Like: A Prince takes longer to mature, but he is worth the wait! A true Prince: Values Purity: He wants to protect your relationship with God and your body. Has Strong Mentors: He has a solid relationship with a Christian dad or a godly male role model. Inner Circle: He surrounds himself with Christian friends who push him to grow. Knows His Identity: He has a clear sense of who God created him to be and speaks life over you. Don’t Believe the Lies! Frogs are attracted to girls who don't know their worth. Don't let yourself believe: ❌ "I'm not good enough or I'm broken." (God says you are amazing!) ❌ "I need a man to validate me." (God has already validated you!) ❌ "He said he loves me, so it must be true." (Actions speak louder than "frog" words!) Special Thanks: Huge shout out to Dr. Doug Weiss for his life-changing training for Christian teen girls. You can learn more about his work at Heart to Heart Counseling Center.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! AMA: Elly says, “So I recently cut off a friend at school because she doesn't have a relationship with God and I feel like she's going to influence me into the things of this world which will keep me off track with God, but I just have this feeling that I went about this situation in the wrong way by cutting her off completely. I asked God for wisdom and guidance and asked him if that was the right thing to do, but I'm still confused if that was the right thing to do. I just have two questions for you. Is cutting off a friend completely for the sake of a relationship with God the right thing to do, and if not, how should I go about this situation?” The biggest key to ask yourself is, are you influencing them for Jesus, or are they influencing you for the world?

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! This month on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we learned about the life of Esther and how God used her to change her generation. Esther was what the culture considered physically beautiful, but there was more to Esther than just her physical beauty. She was beautiful both inside and out and the same thing is true for you! So many times, we think that beauty is defined by our culture or by those around us. They tell us you need to look like this, this, and this to be beautiful. Then we find ourselves scrolling Instagram, looking at all of these girls who fit the cultural definition of beauty, comparing ourselves to them, and hating the way that we look. It’s hard not to when we are constantly bombarded with the message of, “This is beauty.” Then, we begin to equate our value to how beautiful we feel that we are, “thinking, “I’m not beautiful, I’m worthless.” Ladies, if you have listened to this podcast for any length of time, you know that at the end of the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we always end with, “I am beautiful. I am valuable. My beauty and my value, they don’t change. Even if someone fails to see how incredible God made me. There is so much truth to that, which is why I encourage you to repeat it after me and mean it with all your heart. You are beautiful and it doesn’t matter what anyone else says about you. Let me just tell you, many of the girls that we think are beautiful actually hate the way they look as well and compare themselves to others. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God has made everything beautiful in its time. Ladies, this is your time…you are not on this earth by mistake! God created you just the way you are and you are beautiful. But do you know what makes you even more beautiful? True beauty, just like with Esther comes from a relationship with God.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! If you’ve been to UncommonTEEN Live, our conference, you’ve heard me say these 3 phrases: 1. Dare to be Beautiful 2. Dare to be Confident 3. Dare to Shine (or Lead) But why do I start these phrases with the word “dare?” The definition of dare is: to have courage, to have strength of mind to undertake anything, to be bold, to not be afraid, to challenge. love this: to have courage, to be bold, to not be afraid. The reason I start each of those phrases with dare is because it takes courage, boldness, and faith to truly be beautiful (which we’ll talk about more next week). It takes courage, boldness, and faith to shine your light for Jesus, and it also takes courage, boldness, and faith to be confident in the world we live in, and that’s what we are going to talk about today. This month, as we talk about lessons that we can learn from Esther. She is definitely someone that I think of as someone who had courage; she had boldness and stepped out in faith to change her generation. When she was presented with a problem, she could have given up and said that there was no hope, but instead, she chose to step out and do something that could have ended in her death. She was at an impasse. On the one hand, she could die because of a decree made by an evil man named Haman, who was going to wipe out the Jews. Esther was a Jew. However, in order to save the Jews, she had to see the king uninvited, and nobody saw the king uninvited. If they did and he didn’t want to see them, they would immediately be put to death. So, Esther has a choice between death because she’s a Jew or death because she is about to go see a king uninvited. If you’re new to the Bible or new to the UncommonTEEN podcast, I encourage you to take time to read the book of Esther and then go back and listen to the last two episodes: “God’s Got You” and “Step Into Your Purpose.” I know it will bless you! There is a fight for our lives. We not only see this with Esther…but we have seen this since the beginning of time. Just look at this culture! There is a fight against your identity. There is a fight against your friends. There is a fight against your purpose. There is a fight against your excitement for God...your walk with God. There is also a fight against your confidence. It is so important to make sure we are walking with God-confidence, NOT Self-Confidence.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! A lot of times when we hear that God created us for a purpose, we instantly look to the past and how we don’t qualify. Growing up, I was very shy and extremely insecure. I couldn’t even look someone in the eyes and talk to them. I didn’t grow up a Christian, but when I was 17 is when I found God and made Jesus my Lord and Savior. Shortly after graduating high school, God spoke to my heart (not with audible words, but in my heart) and told me I was going to be working with teens. I accepted that right away. However, when God called me to start the UncommonTEEN and the UncommonTEEN Podcast, I fought back hard…making all of these excuses as to why I wasn’t qualified. It took the shut down for my eyes to be opened. That first Wednesday night that we didn’t have youth ministry, and we had to do church online, I was crying out to God because my heart was breaking for you all. I asked God, “God, how can I reach these teens if we can’t even see them.” And God so gently spoke to my heart and said, “You’re not just holding yourself back. You’re holding these girls back.” And that was all it took. Jeremiah was also a teenager that was called by God, just like Esther was and just like you are. We see when Jeremiah is called, he too, pushed back against God. Jeremiah 1:5-8 says, and again this is God speaking, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. Before you were born, I consecrated you (I set you apart for a purpose); I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” God is saying this very thing about you. Before you were formed in your mother’s womb, God knew every little detail about you. He understood your personality, He created every detail so perfectly, He knew every decision you would ever make and He still chose to make you and just like with Jeremiah, He set you apart for a specific purpose as well. In verse 6, we see Jeremiah push back. He says, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth.” Just like with I did; Jeremiah is making excuses for why he can’t do what God has called him to do. He’s looking at his past and saying, “don’t you know who I am? I don’t even know what to say. Why don’t you pick someone else. I’m just a teenager. There have got to be people who could do a better job than I can.” But listen to God’s response in verses 7 and 8, He says, “Do not say, ‘I am only a youth’; for to all to whom I send you, you shall go, and whatever I command you, you shall speak.8 Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, declares the Lord.” Just like God is telling Jeremiah, He’s also telling you, “Don’t look at your past. Don’t look at all those things you see as flaws. Don’t look at why you don’t qualify. Don’t make excuses for why you can’t do what I have called you to do. I will be with you.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! We are going to be doing something a little different with the UncommonTEEN Podcast in 2025. This year, I want to explore different people in the Bible who made a major impact for the Lord and lessons we can learn from them. This month, we are focusing on Esther. Isaiah 43:16-19 says, “I am the Lord, who opened a way through the waters, making a dry path through the sea. I called forth the mighty army of Egypt with all its chariots and horses (this is when the Israelites were held captive by the Egyptians and Moses came in to deliver them). I drew them beneath the waves, and they drowned, their lives snuffed out like a smoldering candlewick. But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland. When in verse 18 God says, “But forget all that!” He’s talking about the past...He doesn’t want our past to hold us back from what He has planned for us. Could you imagine if Esther held herself back because of her past? If she thought about how she was an orphan...that she was a nobody. If she curled up in a ball and gave up on life? I’m so thankful she didn’t do that. In verse 19, God goes on to say, “For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?” God is telling us to look up! To get our faith up! He’s got a plan for our lives that is so much better than we even know! Ephesians 3:20 tells us that with God’s power at work in us, because we have gotten a revelation of how much He loves us, He is able to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. I don’t know about you, but I can dream up some pretty big things. God tells us in this verse that when we get a revelation of how much He loves us and we step out in faith, He can do way more…infinitely more than we can even ask or think! We get a revelation of God’s love, by getting into the Bible and looking at verses on how much God loves us. Once we get that revelation of God's love for us, it's time to step out in faith! Esther knew that God was for her and that she didn’t have to fear. So, instead of bowing down to that fear, she chose to take God at His Word and seek Him. How do we grow our faith? Make a decision that you are going to trust God and His Word (the Bible). Get into the Word and listen to solid Biblical teachings. Meditate on the what you read in the Bible and what you are learning. Speak God’s Word over your life. Take action.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! 6 Words of Wisdom for 2025 and Beyond! You’ll never find peace living out of another person’s head. If you are constantly worried about what other people are thinking, you will never be free to be who it is that God created you to be or free to do whatever it is that God has called you to do. God’s not looking for ability, but availability. All God needs is your yes. It doesn’t matter how unqualified you feel, but are you willing to say yes? Your weakest friend spiritually is the devil’s strongest entry point. Surround yourself with friends who love Jesus as much as you do or more. If you can’t say something nice, don’t. If you can say something nice, do! We live in a culture that is so critical…always criticizing everything! We aren’t afraid to speak our minds and tell others how it should be. It’s a lot easier for us to say mean things to others, than actually be nice. I encourage you, even if you don’t have something nice to say, find something nice to say anyway. Never let what you did yesterday determine who you become today. When you mess up, run to God! When you run to Him, that’s not when He first found out about it. He’s not looking at you with an attitude of “How could you!” But He’s looking at you with an attitude of, “Oh, my goodness, my daughter! I love you so much! Let’s get through this together!” Choosing to forgive can’t change your past, but it can change your future. Forgiveness isn’t a feeling. Many people think, “I can’t forgive because I’m still hurting.” Or “They don’t deserve to be forgiven because of what they did.” Forgiveness is a choice, and it affects you more than it does them anyway. You forgive, because when you do, it sets a prisoner free…that prisoner is you! When we choose to hold onto unforgiveness, it makes us bitter. It changes us and not for the better.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Last week, in part 1 of this two part series on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we began talking about how to throw away anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and insecurities for good! God wants you walking in confidence, really embracing who it is that He created you to be! But how do we do that? 1. It starts with truly understanding who it is that God says you are. John 3:16 says that you are so loved by God. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God makes everything beautiful in its time. You are beautiful! Just the way you are! Jeremiah 1:5 says that before the world was even formed, God knew everything about you and approved of you as His chosen daughter. He set you apart for a purpose. Isaiah 43:4 says that you are precious to God, honored by God, and loved by God! Jeremiah 29:11 says that God has plans for your life that are good. Plans to give you a future and a hope. Luke 12:24 says that you are valuable to God. But In order to truly understand who God says you are, you have to intentionally make the choice to believe it! 2. Rewrite the stories you’ve been telling yourself. When you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed or not confident in who you are…when those feelings start to pull you down, I want you to stop and think about what you’re thinking about. Ask yourself, do these thoughts or do these words that I’m telling myself or maybe someone else said about me…do they line up with what God says about me? Do those thoughts line up with what God says in His Word? The first way you can tell if they do or if they don’t is, how are those thoughts making you feel? If they are making you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, or insecure, the answer probably is no…they do not line up with what God says about you. 3. Change your words; change your life. Our circumstances that we are facing cause our thoughts. When we dwell on those thoughts, those thoughts cause the words we begin to speak. When we begin to speak those things over our lives, our words then cause the results that we see. Pick one verse and say it over and over again until those feelings of anxiety leave. “Thank You, Lord that in John 14:27, Jesus says He has given me His peace. I thank you that I have peace.” Then repeat over again over again until you feel that peace, Thank You, Lord for your peace. I have the peace of Jesus. I praise You God for giving me Your peace.” Sometimes you can speak those verses for a couple minutes and anxiety will leave, sometimes you may need to be speaking those verses over yourself for an hour or two, but continue to do it until that anxiety leaves. The Word of God is powerful and can and will destroy the weapons the enemy has used against you!

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Did you know that it is possible to not let anxiety, stress, overwhelm or insecurities rule your life? Did you know that God actually doesn’t want you anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, and insecure? He actually wants you to walk in peace, enjoying life as you walk out confidently who He made you to be! I remember my senior year of high school. I was so insecure…probably one of the most insecure people you would have ever met. I couldn’t even look people in the eye when talking to them. Every time I walked into a room and people were laughing, I immediately thought they were laughing about me, when in reality, I was probably the last person on their mind. To say that I was insecure was an understatement. It became a way of life for me to compare myself with everyone I encountered and falling short every time. I was a nobody. I hated everything about myself. This insecurity led to so much anxiety. Going back to my senior year, anxiety attacks became like a friend to me…not one that I cared for either…I always felt like a thousand pound elephant was sitting on my chest and it was so hard to breathe. Praise God, I found Jesus when I was a senior in high school, because this became my only hope that things could get better. I learned that I didn’t have to let anxiety, overwhelm, and insecurities run my life anymore. At that time, I couldn’t even imagine what it would feel like to be free…a life of joy and peace and confidence, but I clung tight to that hope. I am so thankful I did, because even on the hard days, I kept pushing through and I didn’t give up. It wasn’t an easy journey, but it was so worth it! At first, there were more bad days than good days. Then the good days started coming a little more. Then over time, the days of anxiety and overwhelm and insecurity were almost obsolete. I would be lying if I said that the anxiety, the overwhelm and the insecurities never come back from time to time, because they do. However, when they do, I go back to these 3 steps that I’m going to share with you this week and next week and do them until those feelings are gone! So how do we kick anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and insecurities to the curb?

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Why is it so hard to motivate ourselves to do what we know we are supposed to do? Especially when we don’t feel like it? Lack of motivation….complacency…it’s all the same thing. Complacency is a weapon the enemy is using to get us to give up and not even try. When we live in a culture that is so based on our feelings, we don’t realize how much we are allowing our feelings to control our lives until we take a step back and look at it. When we don’t feel like doing that thing, we don’t do it. If we keep this mentatlity up, we will waste our lives and never truly find the purpose God called us to live out. Yes, God gave us feelings. Feelings are meant to be felt. Feelings are meant to help us feel compassion and love toward others, but feelings were never meant to be what makes our decisions for us. However, if we’re not careful, we use our feelings to make excuses for us to do what we want to do or not to what we don’t want to do. Benjamin E Mays, a pastor who actually mentored Martin Luther King Jr said is so wisely. He said, “The tragedy of life is often not in our failure, but rather in our complacency; not in our doing too much, but rather in our doing too little; not in our living above our ability, but rather in our living below our capacities." Complacency or lack of motivation is one of the biggest enemies to Christians and if I can be honest, when I look at a lot of the Christian teens today, this is the number one enemy I see invading their lives. Complacency isn’t just not doing anything, though, complacency or a lack of motivation also occurs when we do the same thing over and over again and get into a “check it off the list” mentality. How do we move from complacency or a lack of motivation to pushing past those feelings? Honestly, it starts with discovering you do have a purpose, right now, as a teen! There’s a quote that says, “motivation is found when purpose is discovered” and it is so true! How do we overcome a lack of motivation? How do we overcome complacency? It starts with understanding how much God loves you! Develop a real, living relationship with Jesus instead of just checking God off a list. Do your first 15 (spending the first 15 minutes of your day with God)Spend 5 minutes in the Word 5 minutes in prayer 5 minutes in worship. Serve others. Share Jesus with those around you! Discipleship, mentorship and coaching! Ladies, let’s not make anymore excuses, but let’s get out there and live our life with purpose! Just like that quote I shared earlier, “Motivation is found when purpose is discovered.” Support the show Want a little extra sparkle this month? ✨ Grab your December Glow Mail and soak in God's Radiant Love for you!

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Your words are powerful. Proverbs 18:20 tells us that death and life are in the power of the tongue. Whatever you speak you will eventually see in your life. But just like the words that you speak are powerful…the words that you tell yourself internally are just as powerful. When you’re asked to do something big and new, do you instantly jump in and think to yourself, “oh yeah! I’ve got this!” or do you ever say to yourself, “who am I to do that?” Or have you ever told yourself, “Nobody likes me. Why do I have to be like this?” Or maybe you have told yourself, “I’ not smart. Why should I even try to study for that test. I’m just going to fail anyway.” Or maybe when you look in the mirror and you tell yourself how ugly you think you are and then begin to criticize everything about yourself. Many times, when we’re talking to ourselves negatively, we are taking something that is not true and believing it as if it was true. The worst part is, when we talk negatively to ourselves, it leads us to feel worse about ourselves. The worse we feel about ourselves, the more negatively we talk to ourselves. It’s a vicious cycle. If you find that you have a hard time being happy, or that you are constantly fighting feeling down, depressed, angry, anxious or any other negative feeling, stop and think about what you’ve been telling yourself. What have you been thinking about and dwelling on? Almost every time, if not every time, it’s something that’s negative that we are choosing to believe. If you find yourself in that situation…feeling down…telling yourself negative things about yourself, I want to encourage you to ask yourself these questions. Write them down and put them on the wall in your room or in your bathroom. Put them on your phone so you can easily look at them…wherever you find yourself dwelling on those negative thoughts the most. The first question I encourage you to ask yourself is: Is what I’m telling myself true? Is it what God would say about me? What Truth from God’s Word confirms that what I’m saying is true? What’s the worst thing that could happen? What will most likely happen? Are there other ways that I can look at this situation? Is this really a bad as I’m making it out to be? Is speaking to myself this way making me feel better or worse? How can I change my thinking in order to find the good news? Then when you’ve assessed the situation, find what God’ Word says about the situation and begin to speak that over our life. John 8:31-32 tell us and this is Jesus speaking, “If you abide in My word, you are My disciples indeed. And you shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.” If you have been struggling with negative self-talk, the only way to overcome it is with the Word of God.

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! I remember when I first made Jesus the Lord of my life, I was on fire for God. Nobody was going to stop me from going all in. However, I had a problem. I didn’t know what it looked like to actually go all in with God. Nobody showed me how to practically live out the transformation God had performed in my life as a 17 year old. I would see other teens my age who were Christians, but most if not all of them were lacking that spark…that fire for the Lord. I even tried going to a youth ministry my senior year of high school, but it almost seemed like a joke. I couldn’t quite understand why it seemed like these Christians didn’t even care. The youth pastor would start to teach on a topic, but the message would be overrun by teens making a joke out of it….the youth pastor did nothing but play along. Needless to say, I didn’t go back to that youth ministry often. I didn’t quite understand how I was supposed to practically walk out my Christian life when I didn’t even see other Christian teens walking it out. Was I supposed to just pretend this life change with Jesus didn’t happen…because it did and it was very real. So, how do we put God first in our life. Practically, what does that look like? 1. Put God first in your day. Create the first bit of the morning to spend with God. If you have been struggling with reading the Bible every day, with spending time in prayer every day, with taking time to worship every day, I encourage you to do the First 15. What does 5 minutes in the Bible look like? I encourage you to start in the book of John. In most versions of the Bible, you will notice that the chapters are split up into sections. For example, with the New King James version of the Bible, John 1 is split up into seven sections. The first section’s title is called, “The Eternal Word" and it’s 5 verses long. Read through the whole section one time through, go back through it a second time and right down or underline anything that stands out to you. Then ask God, “Lord, what do you want me to know about this passage? What do you want me to do?” Write it down and take action. Next is 5 minutes in prayer. Take time to talk to God, just like you would your best friend, about what’s coming up that day. Ask Him for wisdom to get through whatever it is you have going on. He so loves you and cares about even the smallest of details. Then the last 5 minutes is spent in worship. Worship is a response to God’s goodness. Take 5 minutes and thank God for the good things He’s doing in your life. 2. Write out the key areas of your life and ask God, “Lord, will you show me how to put you first in every area of my life. Some key areas would include: Friends Guys School Work Sports/Activities Support the show Want a little extra sparkle this month? ✨ Grab your December Glow Mail and soak in God's Radiant Love for you!

Have a question you want me to answer on the podcast? Ask Here! Today's Ask Me Anything question comes from Ellie. she says, "Sometimes I do feel uncommon as a believer, but your positive words help me get through tough situations. My parents are strong Christian believers who are both teachers. They are very knowledgeable about the world we are living in as teens. Through this, they are opposed to the idea of social media and the possible negative effects. I have recently moved school and feel like the odd one out that doesn’t have a social account. I understand that my parents want what’s best for me, but I just want to feel included in some way. I’m sure a lot of teen girls have this same question, one because I know several teen girls who don’t have social media. I also know several other girls who have created social media accounts without their parent’s knowledge. Please don't do this! What this does, is it breaks down your relationship with your parents, because all relationships thrive off of trust. If there is no trust, there is no relationship. Parents have their boundaries because they have your best interest in mind. You also said, “Sometimes I do feel uncommon as a believer.” Being uncommon isn’t a bad thing, it’s actually a pretty great thing! God needs you to be uncommon! If you were like everyone around you, nobody would ever see Jesus in you. What does it mean to be uncommon? It means not common, rare, above the ordinary, exceptional, and remarkable! Acts 4:13 is the verse that is the verse God gave me for UncommonTEEN. It says, “Now when they saw the boldness of Peter and John and perceived that they were unlearned and untrained in the schools (they were common men with no educational advantages), they marveled; and they recognized that they had been with Jesus.” What made them uncommon was their relationship with Jesus, but just like with the disciples, the crowd looked at them and noticed that there was something different about them. That opened the door for them to share the Gospel with them, resulting in people getting saved. When you are uncommon, people look at you and ask, “why are you so nice? Why are you full of peace when everyone else is going crazy? Why are you happy all the time?” That, just like with the disciples opens the door for you to share Jesus with them. It’s okay to be different. It’s okay not to have social media even if everyone else does. They may make fun of you but embrace that you are different and be confident in who you are in Christ. Check out this week's episode to learn more about what you can do when your parents oppose social media, but you feel like the odd one out.
