UncommonTEEN for Christian Teen Girls

Making friends is hard, especially if talking to people you don’t know terrifies you. Coach Jamie knows that feeling well. In this episode, she shares how one simple nudge from the Holy Spirit pulled her out of her comfort zone, and how it can do the same for you. We look at three friendships from the Bible that changed lives: Mary and Elizabeth (a friend who cheers you on when you’re walking toward Jesus), Ruth and Naomi (a friend who stays when there’s nothing in it for her), and Barnabas and Paul (a friend who takes a chance on someone nobody else will). Then Coach Jamie walks you through the CARE method she still uses today: Connect, Ask questions, Relate, and Encourage, with two real-life examples from youth group and homeschool co-op. This week’s challenge: CARE about someone new, then tell us how it went in the Spotify comments or email [email protected]. Scriptures: Luke 1:39–45 | Ruth 1:16 | Acts 9:26–27 | Proverbs 18:24 | Luke 6:31 Only 2 days left! The Abundant Life Collective closes Tuesday, October 20.

Friendships are one of the hardest things we'll ever navigate, but they're also one of the most important. So why do so many of us struggle to find them, keep them, and make them work? 🔗 LINKSJoin the Collective: uncommonteen.com/collectiveGrab Your Free 4 Week Bible Devo: uncommonteen.com/email Looking for a Christian Teen Life Coach: uncommonteen.com/coachingInstagram: instagram.com/uncommon.teenSupport UncommonTEEN: givebutter.com/uncommonteen You Need Friends | You Can't Do This Life Alone In this first episode of our new Friends series, Coach Jamie opens up about the walls she built after being hurt, how she thought something was wrong with her, and the friends who finally helped her let people in. We talk about why God wired you for connection, why even Jesus had a friend group, and the real reasons making friends feels so hard, from feeling alone in a crowd to thinking everyone already has their group. If you've ever felt like nobody really knows you, this episode is for you. God has friends specifically for you. In this episode:- Why we build walls and how they keep good friendships out- What Genesis 2:18 and Jesus' life teach us about connection- Solitude vs. isolation (Proverbs 18:1)- Why you need Christian friends in your corner right now- Ecclesiastes 4:9–12: two are better than one- 3 things to do this week Next week: 3 types of friends every Christian girl needs to win in life. #ChristianTeens #TeenGirls #Friendship #ChristianPodcast #UncommonTEEN

What do you do when doom scrolling has taken over your Bible time? How do you actually hear God's voice? What does it look like to be yourself in public as a shy girl? And what do you do when you keep going back and forth between your faith and the world? At UncommonTEEN Live 2026, Coach Jamie and teen co-hosts Kayleigh, Rosie, and Sadie sat down for a live Ask Me Anything — and they did not hold back. These are real questions from real girls, answered with real wisdom. In this episode you'll hear practical tips for getting back into your Bible before you reach for your phone, how to know when God is actually speaking to you, the CARE acronym for making friends as a shy girl, why lukewarm Christianity is more dangerous than it feels, and what it actually takes to stop going back and forth with the world. Plus — Rosie shares a little bit about the devotional she is writing on lukewarm Christianity. You don't want to miss it.

"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.
