UncommonTEEN for Christian Teen Girls

"I have good values, I know what I believe — they can't change me." That's the lie a lot of us believe about friendship, and today we're breaking down why it's not true. 🔗 Get weekly encouragement: uncommonteen.com/email💛 Join the Collective: uncommonteen.com/collective🎟️ Known 2026 tickets: uncommonteen.com/conference🙋‍♀️ 1:1 Coaching: uncommonteen.com/coaching📸 Instagram: instagram.com/uncommon.teen💝 Support the ministry: givebutter.com/uncommonteen In this episode, we're breaking down Lie #6 in our Lies of the Enemy series — the lie that says who you're friends with doesn't matter as long as your own values are strong. We'll walk through Lucy's story (a girl who found herself slowly drifting from God without even realizing it), look at how Jesus actually structured His friendships — His inner circle vs. His friendship with sinners like Zacchaeus — and answer a real question from one of our listeners about whether it's even okay to be close with people who believe differently than you. Spoiler: it's not about whether you're strong enough to resist their influence. It's about who's actually in your inner circle, and whether they're pulling you toward Jesus or away from Him. ✨ In this episode: Why good values don't make you immune to influence The difference between Jesus' inner circle and His friendship with sinners How to know if a friendship is pulling you closer to God or further away 6 practical ways to create healthy distance without ghosting or being mean A guided prayer to close it out ⏰ Last chance: Unshakable Collective orders close Saturday, September 20th.

You've probably seen it on a shirt, a sticker, maybe even heard it from a friend — "love is love." It sounds simple. It sounds kind. But here's the question nobody is stopping to ask: what is love? And who actually gets to define it? In this episode of Lies of the Enemy, Coach Jamie breaks down what culture says about love versus what God actually says — and why those two things are not the same. We're going to look at what 1 Corinthians 13 really means, why you can't separate love from truth, and how Jesus modeled the perfect balance of both. This one will change the way you see love, the people around you, and your own calling as a young woman of God.

Partner with UncommonTEEN: https://givebutter.com/uncommonteen Support Aaron Keel: https://aaronkeel.com He almost lost everything chasing after the approval of those around him. 💔 In this episode of UncommonTEEN, Aaron Keel opens up about the lie that drove years of addiction and loneliness: "I need their approval." Aaron shares his raw, honest journey — from panic attacks in middle school, to partying and drinking to fit in, to his parents both fighting cancer, to a rock-bottom moment that led him to fully surrender his life to Jesus. He walks through how he learned to identify the enemy's lies, replace them with God's Truth, and rebuild an identity rooted in Christ instead of the approval of others. This conversation is real. It's vulnerable. And it's packed with truth every teen needs to hear about validation, identity, and who God says they really are.

Does the Music You Listen To Actually Matter? Have you ever stopped to think about how the music you listen to is shaping you — not just your mood, but what you actually believe about yourself? In this episode, Coach Jamie gets real about the secular music she grew up on, the moment God got ahold of her heart at a conference in the Rocky Mountains, and how the lyrics she was singing were quietly matching up with the depression, insecurity, and unhealthy relationships she was fighting in real life. Using Proverbs 4:23 and Romans 12:2, Jamie breaks down what it really means to guard your heart and why "it's just music" doesn't hold up once you start paying attention to what you're actually singing along to. She walks through a simple 3-question filter you can run any song through, shares why Christian music has come a long way (with some current favorites to check out), and leads listeners in a brand-new segment: a guided prayer, teaching you how to talk to God about what you're letting into your heart.

Is there really only ONE way to God, or are all religions just different paths to the same place? 👀 🎟️ Grab your tickets for UncommonTEEN Live (Sept 17-19, Mt. Juliet, TN): uncommonteen.com/conference💬 Prayed the prayer in this episode? Reach out: [email protected] or click the chat box at uncommonteen.com Culture says it doesn't matter what you believe — just choose what works for you. Islam says one thing. Buddhism says another. Mormonism adds a whole new book. But Jesus says something no other religion dares to say: "I am the way, the truth, the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." In this episode of Lies of the Enemy, Coach Jamie breaks down what Islam, Buddhism, and Mormonism actually believe — where they came from, what they teach, and how they contradict both Jesus's own words and each other. Then she walks through the real Gospel: why we need saving, what Jesus actually did on the cross, and how you can know Him for yourself today. If you've heard that it's judgmental to believe Jesus is the only way — this episode is for you. ✨ Next week: is it really true that the music you listen to doesn't matter? Stay uncommon. 💛
