    We’ve heard it before, maybe many times
God loves you! For many of us, we grew up singing the song, “Jesus loves me!” and we were so excited
which we should be! I mean praise God for His love. But Just because we’ve heard it, just because we’ve sang the song a million times, doesn’t mean that we really know it. It doesn’t mean that we really understand it. And it doesn’t mean that we actually believe that God loves us.

    I didn’t grow up in a Christian home. My dad was physically, mentally, and verbally abusive. I did go to Vacation Bible School in the summertime, and I heard all about God’s love, but for me, there was a disconnect. I couldn’t understand what love was, because I never actually saw love. I was never actually told by either of my parents that they loved me. I didn’t receive hugs. I didn’t feel loved at all. I didn’t feel accepted. I often felt like I was a mistake, that I was here by accident.

    You might be listening to this feeling the same way. On the outside, you pretend to have it all together, but on the inside you’re falling apart. Maybe your story isn’t as crazy as mine or maybe your story is crazier. No matter where you feel like you’re at, you’ve been asking yourself, what’s the point of being here?

    Or maybe you aren’t, which I pray is the case, but I can almost guarantee someone you’re close to is feeling this way.

    God loves you so much more than you even realize. This is not the Sunday-school Jesus loves you kind of love
this love is so real. It’s a love that’s not based on condition. If you mess up, He isn’t going to love you any less than He already loves you. He loves you
period!

    God doesn’t cause bad things to happen, neither does he allow them to happen.


    We may ask ourselves: what if someone close to me dies and they were believing for healing? This happened to me just recently. A good friend of mine was diagnosed with cancer about a year and a half ago. Their family was believing for healing, she was believing for healing but ended up passing away. It seemed like God didn’t heal her. However, what we didn’t know was that my friend had given up fighting. She was tired of fighting when she knew she could be made free in heaven.

    Ask God if there is something that you're missing. He will show you!

    Think about Job, why did all of that bad stuff happen to Job? He had allowed fear to control his life, which opened the door to the enemy to be able to work in his life.

    Think about the woman with the issue of blood. She needed a mindset shift in order to receive God's healing. She was in a place where she continually expected bad things to happen. She had to shift that and begin to speak life over herself.

    God is constantly showering blessings down upon you. Picture an umbrella and under that umbrella is all of God’s blessings that He has for you.

    Is there an area of your life keeping you from stepping under that umbrella? For example, do you need to dig into the Bible concerning a topic, because you really don't know what it says?

    Is there someone that is causing you pain and you need to forgive them?

    Is there a secret sin that you are struggling with and you haven't told anyone in order to get help to overcome?

    Is there pride in some area of your life or vanity? Maybe feeling less about yourself than what God says about you?

    Is it doubt that what you are believing for will actually happen?

    Ask God to reveal to you if there's something in your life that is holding you back from stepping into those blessings.

    Maybe it’s pride. I don’t know. Ask God to reveal to you your blind spots. Things that maybe you can’t see but are holding you back.

    Mark 11:22-24 says, "And Jesus answered them, “Have faith in God. Truly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be taken up and thrown into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that what he says will come to pass, it will be done for him. Therefore

    AMA: I’m a junior in high school, but only just turned 16, which means I’ll move out to start college when I’m 17, and I still don’t know where God wants me. I’ve prayed for guidance and trust, but I just don’t quite know how to get through high school with so much ungodly anxiety.

    I wanted to answer this question, because we are walking through this exact thing right now ourselves. I have a 17 year old daughter who is in her senior year of high school (grade 12) and a 15 year old son who is a junior (grade 11).

    To share a little bit about our story, my daughter started taking dual enrollment classes during her 11th grade year in high school. For those of you who don’t know what those are, that’s when you take college courses in high school, but they count both toward your high school courses and your college courses. She was sure she knew exactly what God wanted her to do in life. Fast forward to this year and she came to grips with the thought of
what if this isn’t what God wants me to do with my life? What if I’m wrong.

    Girls, whew, this culture puts so much pressure on teens to have their whole life figured out. I feel like many times, we rush God’s plans, because of this pressure. It’s tough
you have only a short period of time to figure out your whole life when a lot of adults don’t even know what they want to do with their life.

    Have you ever felt like God wasn't answering your prayers? Like, He's just not listening?

    I have had several of you girls write into me lately saying that you don't feel like God is answering your prayers and it's making you question your faith.

    Today, we’re going to talk about Hannah. We can find her story in 1 Samuel chapter 1. Hannah walked through some pretty big challenges. She doesn't feel like God is answering her prayers, so she gives into the challenges, starts to let them take her down and then something happened.

    Check out this week's podcast episode to learn what Hannah did and what you can do to see real results with your prayers.

    This week on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, I get the honor of talking to Pastor Joshua Knudsen and his teen daughter Ariella.

    Joshua has been a youth pastor for 15 years and for the past 3 years stepped into the role of generations and young adult pastor. He is passionate about seeing this generation become grounded in their faith knowing God personally so they can live out their faith boldly. The 418 revolution app is an extension to that! Don't know what that is! Check it out below!

    Ariella, is also involved in their church. She is a teacher for the kid's classes, on the student leadership and worship team in her youth ministry, and she is on the production team on Sundays. Who says teen girls can't make an impact for Jesus?!?

    Last week, we began talking about 1 Timothy 4:12, how you are not too young to make an impact by setting an example for unbelievers in the way they talk, the way they act and the way they love. Today, we are on part 2 and are going to talk about how you can set an example in your faith and in your purity.

    When we think of the word purity, we think about sexual purity, but purity is so much more than that. Purity isn’t something that you have. It’s more than what not to do. It’s more than just being a virgin. It’s born out of your love and your relationship with Jesus. It’s about going all in with Jesus in every area of your life
about honoring God in every area of your life.

    Have you ever heard the phrase, “You are in the world, but not of it?” I was reading a blog the other day about a teen girl who was told that phrase time after time after time, but she was at a loss of what that actually meant. She said something along the lines of, “I would like to live like I’m in the world, not of it, but what does that actually look like?

    1 Timothy 4:12 says, “Don’t let anyone think less of you because you are young. Be an example (create a pattern or be a leader) to all believers in what you say, in the way you live (how you act, how you treat others), in your love (how you love others unconditionally as God loves you), your faith, and your purity.”

    This week, we’re going to answer the question, how to we live in the world, but not of it concerning what we say, how we live and how we love. Next week, we’re going to talk about how we live in this world, but not of it concerning our faith and our purity.

    What if One Thing You did this Summer Changed your life forever?


    With UncommonTEEN Live just 2 weeks away, I want to talk about 3 things you can expect at UncommonTEEN Live (whether you’re joining us online or in person!).

    Ladies, if you’re able to join us in person
be there! Joining online is great, and you will learn a lot, and God will show up in your life in an amazing way if you expect Him to, but there’s just something about being live and in person, seeing people face to face...plus, I get to meet you!!


    I started off by asking you the question, what if you did one thing this summer that changed your life forever? And I want you to think about that. How many days do we wake up and it just feels like we are in a rut
wake up, binge some favorite shows, talk to some friends, go to sleep
repeat..wake up, binge some favorite shows, talk to some friends, go to sleep
repeat.


    What if you did one thing this summer that transformed your life forever?

    What if you started your first day of school and you were in a different place. You radiated with joy and with confidence—not self-confidence, but God confidence
confidence in who God created YOU to be.

    What if it didn’t matter anymore what others said about you or thought about you, because You encountered God in such a huge way, that you knew without a shadow of a doubt who you are!

    What if you walked into your first day of school, excited because you made some friends who loved Jesus, who weren’t afraid to live for Him
yeah, maybe they don’t go to your school, but they are always there when you need them
they are praying for you.


    What if?


    Now, I’m not saying that summer camp couldn’t have an impact on you
I’m not saying that you can’t encounter God in a real personal way in your one-on-one time with Him
you can and you should! But there’s just something about being in a room with other teen girls, just like you, who are ready to take that next step in their walk with God and go all in!

    Today, I want to talk about 3 things you will encounter at UncommonTEEN Live
3 things that you can take with you for the rest of your life.


    Even if you aren't able to make it to UncommonTEEN Live, this episode will bless and encourage you!

    I want to give a huge shoutout and thank you to all of you who donated and/or prayed for my family’s mission trip to Jamaica.


    We took a group of 65 people down to Jamaica and got to lead 630 people to Jesus!


    Not only that, but my absolute favorite part about this trip was watching my 15-year-old son and my 17-year-old daughter lead over 25 people to Jesus
and as a family of 4, my husband, 2 kids and I all got to lead over 40 people to Jesus
one on one! Praise God!

    On today’s episode, I want to talk about something that God showed me so strongly when I was in Jamaica
and then on Monday morning in my time of prayer with God, I felt Him speak to my spirit and say this again to me, “You are not where you are on accident. The people you encounter whenever you go somewhere, are not placed in your path on accident.”


    You may have thought you were going to the mall to get clothes, but God brought you there, because there is someone there that He wants you to meet and shine the light of Jesus to.

    Proverbs 16:33 in the Amplified Classic version of the Bible says, “even the events that seem accidental are really ordered by the Lord.”

    We don’t realize, but God has us in certain places for certain people. There is a person out there whose future with Jesus will not begin unless you walk into their life.

    On this week’s Ask Me Anything Episode, Priscilla says, “I’m a homeschooler and I do all my school on my laptop, and I have a really hard time staying off other apps like YouTube. And no matter how hard I try and pray I just can’t seem to get over this. I want to live for God and do His will, but this is really hard to get over.”

    Now, you may not be a homeschooler and you may not do school online, most of you are probably not even doing school right now, because you are on summer break, but I’m sure almost every single one of you can agree with me when I say that there are things that distract you from doing what you know you should be doing...either because we lack the motivation to do it or the willpower to do what we are supposed to do.

    I mean come on, how many times have your parents said, “I thought I asked you to do...fill in the blank
can you tell me why it’s not done?” Or something along those lines
maybe you’ve heard, “how many times do I have to ask you to
again fill in the blank.” I’m sure we’ve all been there at one time or another!

    Or how many times have you told yourself, I am going to read my Bible when I first wake up and then this little rectangle object
and I’m not talking about your Bible
is so enticing you can’t help but grab it. You tell yourself; “I’m only going to check my messages. I’m only going to see if I have any notifications”
and then one hour, two hours, three hours go by and you have totally forgotten about and ditched your Bible.

    As I’ve said, we’ve all been there! A couple weeks ago, I woke up, got into my Bible, but got distracted and had to go back later to pray. Ugh
as Priscilla said, “No matter how hard I try and pray I just can’t seem to get over this. I want to live for God and do His will, but this is really hard to get over.” How do we overcome these distractions? Why are distractions so hard to overcome?

    I want you to think about it this way, the enemy is constantly attacking our minds. If you are living for Jesus and the devil isn’t able to make you bad, his next trick up his sleeve is to get you distracted, because he knows if he can get you distracted, he will pull you away from God and then he will be able to make you bad.

    The whole point of distractions is to hold you back and pull you down.

    Ladies, we are on part two of an interview with Zach Lloyd. And if you missed last week's episode, be sure to go back and listen to that.

    Last week, Zach gave us a sneak peek into the mind of what teen guys are thinking. This week, we're going to move on with our conversation and talk about emotional eating, or maybe we don't eat when we're emotional. Why do we do this? And what can we do about it?

    Just to give you a little bit of a background of who Zach Lloyd is, he is a fitness and anti diet coach, and he helps a ton of ladies just like you. Overcome these obstacles that we are facing, including emotional eating. So let's get on with this conversation.

    Ladies, this week we are getting inside the mind of a teenage guy.

    Zach Lloyd is a fitness and anti-diet coach. As a teen guy, Zach was bullied quite a bit until he began to workout and get fit. He understood what it was like to be on both sides of the spectrum as a teen guy...someone who didn't fit in at all to someone who got a lot of attention.

    He talks to us about how teen guys try to gain the attention of teen girls.
    How the majority of teen guys are really insecure, even if they are fit and in shape. He also talks about how they deal with a lot of the same insecurities that we deal with and what we can do to overcome those insecurities.

    This is a two part episode, so be on the lookout, because next week we dig more into emotional eating (or not eating), why we do it and how we can over come.

    I don’t think it comes as a surprise to anyone of you when I say that this world is crazy! And on top of that, there is a real enemy out there who wants nothing more than to steal our joy and our peace from us, to kill, and to destroy everything that we have. How do we keep our peace when life is hard. How do we walk through this life and win when we have an enemy who is out to get us?

    We’re all going to face challenging circumstances in life. Many of us have heard about the story of the wise man who built his house on the rock and the foolish man who built his house on the sand. Storms came to both of their houses, but it was the wise man’s house that was still standing after the storm had passed. Storms come to everybody’s house, but it’s what we do in the midst of those storms that really make a difference. Can we actually keep peace when life is hard? The answer is, yes! We can! But how?

    On this week’s Ask Me Anything Episode, we are answering Chloe’s and Danika’s questions.

    Chloes says, “I have a friend who is not sure what to believe. I want to persuade them to turn to God but I’m not really sure how to do it without sounding like I'm forcing them.

    Danika says, “I have a question
 I know this girl that is an atheist and she brought up a situation that made her question if the Lord is real. My question it was I sent to help her to turn to the Lord? And if so, how do I help her without pushing her?"

    Know that no two people are the same, every conversation is going to look different and that’s okay! With what we’re going to talk about today, hopefully, you will be ready to crush those comfort zones and step into your God-given purpose as you share the Good News of Jesus with those around you.

    Okay, so how do you even have a conversation with someone, especially a friend or a family member, to know if they are even open to hearing the Good News. Again, no two people are the same—no two conversations are the same. Jesus healed some, He taught others, and to some gave a Word of Knowledge.

    2 Types of Witnessing (Sharing Jesus)

    Confrontational-(I don’t suggest this with your friends or family members.) This is really for people who you see once, and you will most likely never see them again. For example, I’m going to Jamaica in a couple weeks to be sharing the Good News of Jesus with Jamaicans. This is the approach we will be using because chances are we will never see these people gain. Relational. You want to build a relationship with these people before you jump in to asking them about Jesus. This approach is all about making a connection with them. You connect with them, you listen to them, you care about them, you earn their trust. Wait a while before you bring up the topic of Jesus. Get to know them by asking questions. Never underestimate the power of conversations!

    CARE: Connect, Ask Questions, Relate, Encourage

    Connect with them. "Hey, how are you doing?" and stop and really listen to how they are doing!

    Ask questions-a lot of questions to get to know them better.

    Relate to them where you can.

    Encourage them.

    When you find a pain point, ask them if you can pray for them or share your story with the

    Lately, I have had a lot of questions from you amazing ladies talking about your faith, and how doubts creep in or you find yourself questioning your faith and it scares you.

    So, let’s ask these questions, “is it a sin to question your faith? What do you do if doubts start to creep in and you ask yourself questions like, “Does God really exist?” “Is the Bible really true?” Does that mean you’re walking away from God. Does that mean that God is mad at you and that you are no longer a Christian?

    If this is you, let me put your fears to rest
no it is not a sin to question your faith. No it does not mean that you are walking away from God and no it doesn’t mean you are no longer a Christian. God is not mad at you, because of this, either!

    Did you know that questioning your faith can actually be a part of your growth journey as a Christian?

    Why do we have those doubts try to creep in from time to time?

    We live in a world that is anti-God, anti-Bible, anti-Truth and anti-Jesus. We are taught in school that science is not compatible with the Bible. Negative circumstances either we have faced or someone we know has faced.Salvation is super easy to receive. We feel like we need to work for, earn or deserve it.

    What do we do with questions and doubt?

    Ask GodSearch the BibleTalk to someone who has a strong walk with God that can help you with the questions that you have.

    We are on part 2 of answering Isy’s question.

    Isy said, “I’m a Christian and I love God, but I struggle with both depression and anxiety, and I feel sad and tired a lot of the time, I desperately want to keep looking to the Lord and receiving His joy and peace, but it just feels so hard to be joyful when I just feel so down and anxious. Do you have any tips on how I can keep on choosing God’s joy and peace even when it feels so far away?”


    Ladies, if you are feeling like Isy, I want you to know that you aren’t alone and I also want you to know that there is hope.

    I remember being in a place similar to this. I struggled so much with anxiety and depression
and honestly loneliness and I didn’t know how to break free. I would see these people walking around with smiles on their faces like they didn’t have a care in the world and I couldn’t understand and didn’t even know if it was possible to ever get to that place, but I did.

    What I’m sharing in this series are the steps to how I went from struggling with depression and anxiety to living a life of joy. Is everything perfect
no, not at all, but I know that God is on my side and that He’s fighting my battles for me
and the same is true for you! In Isaiah 41:10, God is saying to you, “Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.

    Last week, we began talking about 6 things we can do to overcome anything the enemy tries to throw at us. Briefly, I’ll summarize what we talked about, but if you haven’t listened to part 1 of this series, I encourage you to go back and listen!
