Have you ever felt lost, unseen, or like you don’t really matter?

In this episode, Coach Jamie shares her real, raw story of growing up in pain, abuse, and deep depression—and how God pursued her even when she didn’t know Him.

Through the parables in Luke 15, we talk about why lost things are valuable to God and what that means for you—whether you feel far from God yourself or you’re watching friends who are struggling and searching for hope.

This episode is for the girl who:

• Feels forgotten or unworthy
• Wonders if God still sees her
• Wants to understand her value in Christ
• Or wants to share Jesus with friends who feel lost

No matter where you are right now, God hasn’t stopped pursuing you.

💛 You are valuable. You are seen. And your story isn’t over.

In this episode of the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we dive into what it truly means to be beautiful and valuable in God’s eyes. Life can feel overwhelming with social media, beauty standards, and pressures to fit in—but your worth isn’t defined by your looks, your clothes, or what others think.

We talk about:

• How culture and social media impact self-image and self-worth
• The truth about beauty and value according to God
• Practical ways to see your true beauty and value in your identity in Christ
• Scriptures that remind us we are God’s masterpiece and created for a purpose
• How to live confidently as a teen who is uncommon, rare, and wonderfully made

By the end of this episode, you’ll understand that your beauty and value don’t change, even if others fail to see how incredible God made you.

✨ Perfect for teen girls who want to build confidence, grow in faith, and see themselves through God’s eyes.

Ever catch yourself asking, “What’s wrong with that?” This episode digs into why we do what we do, how to know our limits, and what it really means to grow. It’s all about motivation, risk, and learning to check your heart before you step too close to the edge.

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:

1. Friends
2. Guys
3. School
4. Work
5. Sports/Activities

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.
