<p>🙏🏾 <b>How can teenagers stay faithful to God in a world full of mixed signals?</b></p><p></p><p>In this episode of the <b>Unlocking Faith Podcast</b>, Marquis Wadley sits down with <b>Reverend Dr. Emory Berry Jr.</b> to talk about how teenagers can live faithfully for God in today’s confusing culture. From 📱 <b>social media</b> and 🎵 <b>music</b> to 🎬 <b>movies</b>, 📺 <b>TV</b>, 👥 <b>friends</b>, and 🏠 <b>family influences</b>, young people are constantly receiving mixed messages about identity, truth, and how they should live.</p><p></p><p>This conversation explores how teens can stay grounded in <b>biblical truth</b>, resist the pressure to conform, and build their identity in <b>God</b> instead of culture. We also discuss the important role of <b>parents and guardians</b> in modeling faith and helping the next generation navigate a world that often pulls them in the wrong direction.</p><p></p><p>📖 <b>Key Scripture:</b> Romans 12:2<br />📚 <b>Featured Resource:</b> <i>Christ and Culture</i> by H.
