Six months before India's first real credit cycle hit, one MSME digital lending founder quietly stopped approving 30% of his eligible borrowers. The full story of how Alok Mittal of Indifi Technologies read a signal that his entire industry missed, in conversation with host Akshay Datt. A former venture capitalist who walked away from Canaan Partners to build the unglamorous business of lending to small Indian shops, Alok Mittal has spent a decade proving that 85% of India's MSMEs are not uncreditworthy, the financial system simply cannot tell them apart. Indifi Technologies, which he co-founded in 2015, has disbursed over $497 million across 55,000 businesses in 400 cities, using machine learning that ingests real-time data from partners like Swiggy, Amazon, and BharatPe. In this conversation, Alok explains why human underwriters cannot psychologically distinguish a 1% risk from a 5% risk, why his team cut 30% of borrowers in September 2023 while the industry kept growing, and how India's first real credit cycle in a decade is separating disciplined MSME digital lending operators from those who only got lucky during a good cycle.

Today's episode of The Rizzuto Show somehow starts with Point Fest prep and immediately spirals into backyard snake warfare, accidental public humiliation, mysterious old-person injuries, and one of the most aggressively cursed philosophical questions we've ever discussed on this daily comedy show.Lern nearly sacrificed herself to save her indoor cat from a giant backyard snake while fully committed to the “reading Vogue magazines outside with no clothes on” lifestyle. The result? Her chest now looks like Freddy Krueger signed it after a rough night in Ellisville. Meanwhile, Rizz debates whether friendship includes letting people sleep at your house during Point Fest weekend, and honestly… the answer may legally classify him as emotionally unavailable.We also uncover what may be the dumbest Internet trend in human history: “ball maxing.” Yes, apparently some dudes are injecting saline into their anatomy to achieve “grapefruit aesthetics.” Because therapy was simply too obvious. The gang dives deep into body dysmorphia, masculinity, medical horror stories, and why nobody — literally nobody — is spending as much time thinking about your balls as you are.Rafe contributes nightmare fuel with stories about phantom testicular pain, forgotten Q-tips in public, and somehow manages to make all of us afraid of our own nervous systems. King Scott attempts solutions involving decorative ball coverings, which somehow only makes the conversation worse. Honestly, this episode should probably be studied by scientists trying to understand societal collapse.Then things somehow get philosophical.The crew tackles “The Red Button vs Blue Button Dilemma,” where humanity must secretly choose between saving everyone or guaranteeing their own survival. Turns out trust issues may be the defining feature of modern civilization. Some of us chose hope. Some chose survival. Some chose chaos. And one of us may absolutely be the reason civilization collapses.Also discussed:Point Fest hotel insanityWhy old people aggressively wait outside restaurants at 11AMSkinny dipping with coworkersNaked Guitar HeroButthole lightning support groupsPublic shirt failuresWhy frying bacon naked is apparently a universal warningWhy snakes in West County probably own Stanley CupsThe emotional damage caused by humanity itselfIf you like your daily comedy show with equal parts existential dread, stupid Internet trends, accidental oversharing, and deeply unnecessary anatomy discussions, congratulations — you found your people.This episode of The Rizzuto Show is everything a daily comedy show should be: chaotic, hilarious, mildly concerning, and somehow weirdly therapeutic.Follow The Rizzuto Show → https://linktr.ee/rizzshow for more from your favorite daily comedy show.Connect with The Rizzuto Show Comedy Podcast online → https://1057thepoint.com/RizzShowHear The Rizz Show daily on the radio at 105.7 The Point | Hubbard Radio in St. Louis, MO.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Social Media First heisst sowohl beim Konsumgüter-Giganten UNILEVER als auch beim Schweizer Versicherer SWISS LIFE das neue Motto in der Markenkommunikation. Beide verschieben substanzielle Budgets zu Social Media und ins Influencer Marketing. Wird die «Many-to-Many»-Kommunikation die traditionelle «One-to-Many»-Kommunikation ablösen? Was sind die Gefahren? UNILEVER und McCORMICK haben sich darauf geeinigt, das Lebensmittelgeschäft von Unilever mit dem von McCormick zusammenzulegen. Was bedeutet dies für die bei Schweizern beliebte Marke KNORR und ihre nicht minder geliebten Subbrands wie AROMAT oder das KNORRLI? Werden sie verschwinden, sich verändern oder so bleiben, wie sie sind? AI-Slop verstopft mehr und mehr die sozialen Medien. Jüngst sorgte FRUIT LOVE ISLAND – eine Persiflage auf die Reality-Dating-Show LOVE ISLAND - für Furore. Millionen Menschen schauten auf TIKTOK vermenschlichten Bananen, Pflaumen und Melonen beim «Daten» zu. Wie müssen Unternehmen mit den immer mehr von AI-Content verseuchten sozialen Medien umgehen? Ist Mitmachen oder Sich-raushalten besser? Müssen sie die Art des Storytellings anpassen – mehr «quick & dirty» als «hochglanz»?

We return to the realm of disaster movies this week as we are joined by Roger Wistar from Three for the Show to look at the 1980 Irwin Allen production When Time Ran Out... In True Disaster movie form, it features a huge cast of stars including Paul Newman, William Holden, Jaqueline Bissett, James Franciscus, Red Button, Ernest Borgnine, Veronica Hamel, and many more. In addition to all the disaster movie mayhem, we've also go our movie recommendations and our trivia game.
We're curing baldness (you're welcome, LeBron), breaking down the NBA Finals like we have courtside seats and PhDs in talking trash, and diving deep into Walmart's wild compensation plans — because nothing says “late-stage capitalism” like getting a bonus for not crying in the break room. We also get real about the microscopic range of emotions men are “allowed” to have. Spoiler: it's mostly hunger and rage. Laughs, feels, and follicle dreams await.

What if you could grow a business without ads or cold calls? That's exactly what Mike Faraci set out to prove and did. Now the Founder & CEO of Red Button Media, Mike helps brands rise above the noise with authentic, story-driven video content. But his path didn't start with a marketing budget or a polished campaign. It started with one camera, a clear message, and a commitment to post on LinkedIn for 500 days straight. In this episode of the Rising Tide Startups, we talk with Mike about how he built a media company from scratch without spending a dime on ads or picking up the phone for cold outreach. Mike shares how he developed systems around strategic content, how to speak to a “Target Viewer Persona,” and why trust-building starts with showing up as yourself online. This isn't just a conversation about content strategy, it's about discipline, self-belief, and doing the unscalable work when no one's paying attention. Whether you're a solopreneur, startup founder, or just tired of growth tactics that feel fake, Mike's story is a reminder that showing up with purpose and consistency can still beat the algorithm. Key Takeaways: Consistency beats perfection. It's not about being flawless, it's about being there. Show up regularly and let the momentum build. Content replaces cold calls. Done right, consistent content creation brings in warm, inbound leads—no ads, no chasing. Trust is built through familiarity. Every scroll-by impression adds up. People trust faces they recognize. Be visible. The cost of silence is high. If you're not showing up, your competitors are. Inaction has a price. Put a face to the brand. Personal content outperforms faceless brands. Relatability wins. Capture attention instantly. You've got only 3–5 seconds to lead with value or lose the moment. If you're not creating content in 2025, you're already behind. Organic visibility isn't optional anymore, it's the baseline.

Share with us what you think about UncommonTEEN! I do read your fanmail, but can't message you back! Chat with me at UncommonTEEN.com!Growing up, I believed so many lies from the enemy. Lies that I was a nobody. That I was worthless. That I was unlovable. That nobody cared about me. I was a reject. I hated everything about myself. I absolutely hated being alone, because that's when all of these thoughts would come at me the strongest.When I was 17 and gave my life to Jesus, I wish I could say that all of those thoughts went away, but they didn't. I still struggled a lot. I remember thinking as a new Christian that I was broken beyond repair. I used to ask myself, “Why am I like this?” Why can't I make friends… I don't just mean those people you say hi to here and there, but those close friends who are there for you no matter what. I don't want to be alone anymore. Why can't I be different? What's wrong with me?”I'm just thankful that at this point in my life, I was crying out to God as I was asking these questions. My heart-cry at this time was, “God change me. Show me what I need to do and I will do it!”What I didn't realize back then was after giving my life to Jesus, I had the power on the inside of me to watch those dead areas of my life come to life. I had the power on the inside of me to heal those broken places. I had the power on the inside of me to get rid of the loneliness. That power is the resurrection power that Jesus gave to us after He died on the cross and rose again from the grave. How? How does the resurrection power work in our lives? Listen to what Abraham did in Romans 4.Romans 4:17-21-“As it is written, “I have made you the father of many nations”—in the presence of the God in whom he believed, who gives life to the dead and calls into existence the things that do not exist. In hope he believed against hope, that he should become the father of many nations, as he had been told, “So shall your offspring be.” He did not weaken in faith when he considered his own body, which was as good as dead (since he was about a hundred years old), or when he considered the barrenness[Ladies, we have some exciting news!

He values your life so much that He was willing to give up His own life so that He could have a relationship with you!This week on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we are going to talk about the importance of what Jesus did for us on the cross, how it shows His great love for you and how much He values you, and what His dying on the cross actually did for us and for others!1. Sin has a price tag. Romans 6:23 says, “For the wages (or the payment) of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord.2. Someone must pay the price for that sin, and it should have been us since we are the ones who mess up. However, someone else paid the price…His name is Jesus. Romans 5:8-But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. 3. Jesus paid the price so we could go free. Romans 3:23-24 says, “For everyone has sinned; we all fall short of God's glorious standard. Yet God, in his grace, freely makes us right in his sight. He did this through Christ Jesus when he freed us from the penalty for our sins. 4. And because of what Jesus did, you no longer have to pay the price for sin. Think about it this way, If you were at a restaurant with your family and your parents paid the bill for your food, would you still go up and try to pay the bill again before you leave? Of course not, the bill has already been paid. Jesus has already paid it and all you need to do is receive Him!Ladies, we have some exciting news! The SOAR Community is now FREE!!

Share with us what you think about UncommonTEEN! I do read your fanmail, but can't message you back! Chat with me at UncommonTEEN.com!“I don't care. I just don't care. It's not that I don't want to care. I just lack any motivation. When it comes to reading the Bible, I want to read it, but I just don't. I can't even tell you the last time I opened my Bible on my own if I have ever read it on my own. When it comes to praying, I tend to forget. I just don't think about it. When it comes to church, I like hanging around my friends. I'd rather talk to them than listen to the pastor.” This is a hypothetical conversation but working with teens for over the past 25 years, this is something I hear and see more often than not. There are teens who I know who have gone to church their whole lives, their parents are in ministry and care nothing about God. It isn't that they are pushing back against God, they just don't care. They serve doing things that seem fun, but when asked if they will help in other areas, they roll their eyes and walk away. They have lost their desire to share the love of Jesus with others. The definition of spiritual apathy is a lack of interest, enthusiasm, or concern about your relationship with God. You couldn't care less. The definition of complacency is being satisfied with where you currently are in your relationship with God. You don't desire to grow, but you're just okay. I As Christians, we all have to fight apathy and complacency from time to time. I would be lying if I said that I never had to fight it. There are times when other things get my attention, and I have to fight those feelings. Here's how to overcome spiritual apathy and complacency.Change your perspective. Reading your Bible, praying, going to church, serving…those aren't something that you have to do…they are something that we get to do. Push past your feelings. Ask God to help you. Ask Him to give you a desire to want to serve Him. Start small. First 15.Find a friend or a youth leader who will hold you accountable. Become part of something bigger than yourself!

Share with us what you think about UncommonTEEN! I do read your fanmail, but can't message you back! Chat with me at UncommonTEEN.com!This week, we're going to talk about the faith of Caleb and Joshua. Joshua and Caleb, when they, along with 10 other spies were faced with a big challenge, they were the only two that chose to put their faith in God instead of bowing down and giving into their circumstances. Ladies, we have a choice when it comes to facing big challenges. Are we going to complain about our problems, give up all hope, and let the enemy steal our victory or are we going to put our trust in God and not move on the promises He has given us? Just like with Joshua and Caleb, God has a plan for your life of good and not of evil to give you a future and a hope…Jeremiah 29:11. You can bank your life on the promises in God's Word and watch Him come through for you every time. This passage from Joshua 1 gives us the steps to overcome any challenges in our lives. Know that God is for you. He is not against you! Joshua 1:5 says, “No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life. Just as I was with Moses so I will be with you, I will not leave you or forsake you (or abandon you).”Don't let anyone or any circumstances steal God's Promises from you. The beginning of Joshua 1:5 says, “No man shall be able to stand before you all the days of your life.” Don't let anyone or anything move you off of the promises of God!Stand on the Word of God, do what it says, and do not move off of it until you see what you're believing for! Joshua 1:8- This book of the Law (God's Word) shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. When fear, doubt or discouragement creep in, kick it out! Joshua 1:9- Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened and do not be discouraged, for the Lord Your God is with you wherever you go.” See God come through for you! Joshua 1:8- This book of the Law (God's Word) shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it.

It's time to get rid of excuses!So many times, we disqualify ourselves from being used by God, saying things like, “God could never use me. I'm a mess up. I don't even have friends. I'm afraid to talk to people. Or whatever other excuse we come up with. God doesn't want to use you because you're perfect and have everything together. He wants to use you because you are available and because you know that the only way you can win is with God.Isaiah 43:1-5- Last part: “Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by name, you are mine. 2 When you pass through the waters, I will be with you; and through the rivers, they shall not overwhelm you; when you walk through fire you shall not be burned, and the flame shall not consume you. 3 For I am the Lord your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior. I give Egypt as your ransom, Cush and Seba in exchange for you. 4 Because you are precious in my eyes, and honored, and I love you, I give men in return for you, peoples in exchange for your life. 5 Fear not, for I am with you; I will bring your offspring from the east, and from the west I will gather you. 6 1. God Knows You By Name (Isaiah 43:1)2. God Is Our Protector, You don't need to Fear (Isaiah 43:2)3. God Has a Purpose for You (Isaiah 43:5-7)4. You can trust God!Ladies, we have some exciting news!

Share with us what you think about UncommonTEEN! I do read your fanmail, but can't message you back! Chat with me at UncommonTEEN.com!Ladies, we have a big God and He wants to do big things in your life!Isaiah 26:3 says that God will keep us in perfect peace when we keep our minds focused on Him because we trust in Him. You may be walking through a challenging time right now. You may be walking through a hard diagnosis right now. You may be walking through a friendship that failed. No matter what you are going through, there is hope. Keep your eyes on God and watch what He does for you! It only took a small amount of faith to change the whole trajectory of your life when you gave your life to Jesus. With a small amount of faith, the biggest miracle was performed. You went from darkness to light. From being a slave to sin to being a daughter of the most High King. You were saved from hell and now get to live forever with Jesus. If, with just a little bit of faith, God was able to perform the greatest miracle ever, why does it seem like we need to have a huge amount of faith to receive other miracles, such as healing or even making great friends? Maybe you have heard this saying before, or maybe you have said it yourself…I sure hope not! But if you have, please know that it is not in any way encouraging or Biblical! But the saying is, “Well, you didn't pray hard enough.” Or “I guess you didn't have enough faith.”The problem isn't the amount of faith that we have. Jesus even told us that if we had faith the size of a mustard seed, we could move mountains. The problem is that we need to learn how to release the faith that we do have. In Matthew 17:14-21, the disciples tried to cast demons out of a boy like they had done many times before, but this time, they couldn't understand why they weren't able to do it. In verse 20, Jesus doesn't tell them that they needed more faith. He actually says to them that it was because of their unbelief. So, the problem wasn't more faith, it was that they needed to kick doubt out. Unbelief will override faith. Ladies, we have some exciting news! The SOAR Community is now FREE!!

Send us a textI want to give a huge shout out to Dr. Doug Weiss and his training for Christian teen girls called "Princes Take Longer than Frogs." Dr. Weiss is a psychologist and the founder of Heart to Heart Counseling Center. Much of the information I am sharing with you, I learned from him. This week, we are going to talk about dating. Some of you have started dating and it's okay with your parents.Some of you have started dating and are hiding it from your parents...which I totally don't recommend! Listen to your parents, they love you!Some of you want to date, but you're waiting for someone to tell you they like you. Some of you are waiting to date until it's okay with your parents or until you are ready to get married (which I totally recommend!)Frogs or Princes? Who to look for when you do start dating?There are two types of guys in the world: frogs and princes. A prince takes longer to mature than a frog does. The younger you start to date, the more likely you will end up with a frog. You want to wait long enough for God to develop a man who is good enough for you! What a Frog Looks Like:Frogs are motivated by fear. They will tell you things like, “You won't do _____ because you don't love me.” Frogs have secret sins. 86% of guys by the time they turn 20 are addicted to porn. What he is doing sexually in secret will hurt you. Frogs are liars. They will tell you what you want to hear to win you. What a Prince Looks Like?Princes hate fear. They may have fears, but they are challenged by them. They have strong relationships with either their Christian dad or with an adult male role model who loves God and is helping them learn what it means to be a strong man of God.They have strong Christian guy friends who are helping them to grow in their walk with God.Princes want to protect your relationship with God and your purity.Princes have a clear sense of who GLadies, we have some exciting news!

Send us a textAMA: Elly says, “So I recently cut off a friend at school because she doesn't have a relationship with God and I feel like she's going to influence me into the things of this world which will keep me off track with God, but I just have this feeling that I went about this situation in the wrong way by cutting her off completely. I asked God for wisdom and guidance and asked him if that was the right thing to do, but I'm still confused if that was the right thing to do. I just have two questions for you. Is cutting off a friend completely for the sake of a relationship with God the right thing to do, and if not, how should I go about this situation?” I'm so glad you asked this question because I know other girls listening are asking the same question. I also know other girls are listening who are holding onto friendships or relationships they know they should let go of. There is such a fine balance in friendships because on one hand, we see in the Bible how in Matthew 11:19 Jesus was called a friend of sinners. Then, in verses like 1 Corinthians 15:33, it tells us not to be deceived because bad company (friendships) will corrupt good morals. So, are we supposed to be a friend of sinners, or are we supposed to cut off those friendships? The answer is both! The biggest key to ask yourself is, are you influencing them for Jesus, or are they influencing you for the world? Another key is this…Jesus was a friend to sinners, but they weren't his closest friends. Sinners were people He would shine His light to. He would invite them to lunch every now and then. He would have conversations with them and see where He could offer them just a little glimpse of hope. Looking at the life of Jesus, His closest friends were His disciples. They loved God and were on the same path as Him. Jesus would help them see those areas that they struggled in and showed them how to overcome those struggles. In the same way, the people who are closest to us need to be on the same path that we are on. There is a saying that you will become like your 5 closest friends. If you look at your 5 closest friends, is thiLadies, we have some exciting news! The SOAR Community is now FREE!!

Send us a textThis month on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we are diving into the friendship of David and Jonathan. They had a friendship that was different from most friendships. It was a friendship of trust, loyalty, and honor. We can read about this friendship in 1 Samuel. In 1 Samuel 17, we see David, this teenage boy who nobody saw as anything special, rise when everyone else was scared and defeat Goliath. After defeating Goliath, King Saul looked at David and was blown away and went to talk to David. This is where 1 Samuel 18 picks up. 1 Samuel 18:1. It says, “As soon as David had finished speaking to Saul, the soul of Jonathan (this is Saul's son) was knit to the soul of David, and Jonathan loved him as his own soul.” In other words, Jonathan saw that there was something different about David and he knew that he was someone that he wanted to have in his corner fighting for him. Verse 2, “And Saul took him that day and would not let him return to his father's house. Then Jonathan made a covenant with David, because he loved him as his own soul. And Jonathan stripped himself of the robe that was on him and gave it to David, and his armor, and even his sword and his bow and his belt. And David went out and was successful wherever Saul sent him, so that Saul set him over the men of war. And this was good in the sight of all the people and also in the sight of Saul's servants. Think about this: David was just a shepherd boy. There was nothing special about him. His dad didn't even consider him as someone important, but God did. Culturally speaking, he was a nobody, and now you have the King's son, Jonathan, who is royalty wanting to be David's friend. Their social status meant nothing to them. When those verses say that Jonathan gave David his robe, his armor, his sword, his bow, and his belt, that was a sign from Jonathan that he would be loyal in their friendship. And Jonathan was, even when King Saul was jealous of David and tried to kill him multiple times. Jonathan was a loyal friend until his death. David was also a loyal friend to Jonathan, so much so that after his death, he took Jonathan's son in as his own. This friendship wasn't something that eitherLadies, we have some exciting news!

Send us a textThis month on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we learned about the life of Esther and how God used her to change her generation. Esther was what the culture considered physically beautiful, but there was more to Esther than just her physical beauty. She was beautiful both inside and out and the same thing is true for you! So many times, we think that beauty is defined by our culture or by those around us. They tell us you need to look like this, this, and this to be beautiful. Then we find ourselves scrolling Instagram, looking at all of these girls who fit the cultural definition of beauty, comparing ourselves to them, and hating the way that we look. It's hard not to when we are constantly bombarded with the message of, “This is beauty.” Then, we begin to equate our value to how beautiful we feel that we are, “thinking, “I'm not beautiful, I'm worthless.” Ladies, if you have listened to this podcast for any length of time, you know that at the end of the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we always end with, “I am beautiful. I am valuable. My beauty and my value, they don't change. Even if someone fails to see how incredible God made me. There is so much truth to that, which is why I encourage you to repeat it after me and mean it with all your heart. You are beautiful and it doesn't matter what anyone else says about you. Let me just tell you, many of the girls that we think are beautiful actually hate the way they look as well and compare themselves to others. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God has made everything beautiful in its time. Ladies, this is your time…you are not on this earth by mistake! God created you just the way you are and you are beautiful. But do you know what makes you even more beautiful? True beauty, just like with Esther comes from a relationship with God.

Send us a textIf you've been to UncommonTEEN Live, our conference, you've heard me say these 3 phrases:1. Dare to be Beautiful2. Dare to be Confident3. Dare to Shine (or Lead) But why do I start these phrases with the word “dare?” The definition of dare is: to have courage, to have strength of mind to undertake anything, to be bold, to not be afraid, to challenge. love this: to have courage, to be bold, to not be afraid. The reason I start each of those phrases with dare is because it takes courage, boldness, and faith to truly be beautiful (which we'll talk about more next week). It takes courage, boldness, and faith to shine your light for Jesus, and it also takes courage, boldness, and faith to be confident in the world we live in, and that's what we are going to talk about today. This month, as we talk about lessons that we can learn from Esther. She is definitely someone that I think of as someone who had courage; she had boldness and stepped out in faith to change her generation. When she was presented with a problem, she could have given up and said that there was no hope, but instead, she chose to step out and do something that could have ended in her death. She was at an impasse. On the one hand, she could die because of a decree made by an evil man named Haman, who was going to wipe out the Jews. Esther was a Jew. However, in order to save the Jews, she had to see the king uninvited, and nobody saw the king uninvited. If they did and he didn't want to see them, they would immediately be put to death. So, Esther has a choice between death because she's a Jew or death because she is about to go see a king uninvited. If you're new to the Bible or new to the UncommonTEEN podcast, I encourage you to take time to read the book of Esther and then go back and listen to the last two episodes: “God's Got You” and “Step Into Your Purpose.” I know it will bless you! There is a fight for our lives. We not only see this with Esther…but we have seen this since the beginning of time. Just look at this culture! There is a fight against your identity. There is a fight against your friends. There is a fight against your purpose. There is a fight against your excitement for God...your walk with God. There is also a fight against your confidence. It is so important to make sure we are walking with God-confidence, NOT Self-Confidence.

Send us a textA lot of times when we hear that God created us for a purpose, we instantly look to the past and how we don't qualify. Growing up, I was very shy and extremely insecure. I couldn't even look someone in the eyes and talk to them. I didn't grow up a Christian, but when I was 17 is when I found God and made Jesus my Lord and Savior. Shortly after graduating high school, God spoke to my heart (not with audible words, but in my heart) and told me I was going to be working with teens. I accepted that right away. However, when God called me to start the UncommonTEEN and the UncommonTEEN Podcast, I fought back hard…making all of these excuses as to why I wasn't qualified.It took the shut down for my eyes to be opened. That first Wednesday night that we didn't have youth ministry, and we had to do church online, I was crying out to God because my heart was breaking for you all. I asked God, “God, how can I reach these teens if we can't even see them.” And God so gently spoke to my heart and said, “You're not just holding yourself back. You're holding these girls back.” And that was all it took. Jeremiah was also a teenager that was called by God, just like Esther was and just like you are. We see when Jeremiah is called, he too, pushed back against God. Jeremiah 1:5-8 says, and again this is God speaking, “Before I formed you in the womb I knew you. Before you were born, I consecrated you (I set you apart for a purpose); I appointed you a prophet to the nations.” God is saying this very thing about you. Before you were formed in your mother's womb, God knew every little detail about you. He understood your personality, He created every detail so perfectly, He knew every decision you would ever make and He still chose to make you and just like with Jeremiah, He set you apart for a specific purpose as well. In verse 6, we see Jeremiah push back. He says, “Ah, Lord God! Behold, I do not know how to speak, for I am only a youth.” Just like with I did; Jeremiah is making excuses for why he can't do what God has called him to do. He's looking at his past and saying, “don't you know who I am? I don't even know what to say. Why don't you pick someone else. I'm just a teenager. There have got to be people who could do a better job than I can.” But listen to God's response in verses 7 and 8, He says, “Do not say, ‘I am only a youth'; for to all to whom I send you, you shall go, and whatever I command you, you shall speak.8 Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you to deliver you, declares the Lord.” Just like God is telling Jeremiah, He's also telling you, “Don't look at your past. Don't look at all those things you see as flaws. Don't look at why you don't qualify. Don't make excuses for why you can't do what I have called you to do. I will be with you.

Send us a textWe are going to be doing something a little different with the UncommonTEEN Podcast in 2025. This year, I want to explore different people in the Bible who made a major impact for the Lord and lessons we can learn from them. This month, we are focusing on Esther. Isaiah 43:16-19 says, “I am the Lord, who opened a way through the waters, making a dry path through the sea. I called forth the mighty army of Egypt with all its chariots and horses (this is when the Israelites were held captive by the Egyptians and Moses came in to deliver them). I drew them beneath the waves, and they drowned, their lives snuffed out like a smoldering candlewick. But forget all that—it is nothing compared to what I am going to do. I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it? I will make a pathway through the wilderness. I will create rivers in the dry wasteland. When in verse 18 God says, “But forget all that!” He's talking about the past...He doesn't want our past to hold us back from what He has planned for us. Could you imagine if Esther held herself back because of her past? If she thought about how she was an orphan...that she was a nobody. If she curled up in a ball and gave up on life? I'm so thankful she didn't do that. In verse 19, God goes on to say, “For I am about to do something new. See, I have already begun! Do you not see it?” God is telling us to look up! To get our faith up! He's got a plan for our lives that is so much better than we even know! Ephesians 3:20 tells us that with God's power at work in us, because we have gotten a revelation of how much He loves us, He is able to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think. I don't know about you, but I can dream up some pretty big things. God tells us in this verse that when we get a revelation of how much He loves us and we step out in faith, He can do way more…infinitely more than we can even ask or think! We get a revelation of God's love, by getting into the Bible and looking at verses on how much God loves us. Once we get that revelation of God's love for us, it's time to step out in faith! Esther knew that God was for her and that she didn't have to fear. So, instead of bowing down to that fear, she chose to take God at His Word and seek Him. How do we grow our faith? Make a decision that you are going to trust God and His Word (the Bible). Get into the Word and listen to solid Biblical teachings. Meditate on the what you read in the Bible and what you are learning. Speak God's Word over your life. Take action.Ladies, check your emails this week for updates on the New UncommonTEEN App!!To ask your Ask Me Anything Questions or if you need prayer, head on over to UncommonTEEN.com.For the Ask Me Anything Questions, click on the RED BUTTON at the top of the screen.

Send us a text6 Words of Wisdom for 2025 and Beyond!You'll never find peace living out of another person's head. If you are constantly worried about what other people are thinking, you will never be free to be who it is that God created you to be or free to do whatever it is that God has called you to do.God's not looking for ability, but availability. All God needs is your yes. It doesn't matter how unqualified you feel, but are you willing to say yes?Your weakest friend spiritually is the devil's strongest entry point. Surround yourself with friends who love Jesus as much as you do or more.If you can't say something nice, don't. If you can say something nice, do! We live in a culture that is so critical…always criticizing everything! We aren't afraid to speak our minds and tell others how it should be. It's a lot easier for us to say mean things to others, than actually be nice. I encourage you, even if you don't have something nice to say, find something nice to say anyway.Never let what you did yesterday determine who you become today. When you mess up, run to God! When you run to Him, that's not when He first found out about it. He's not looking at you with an attitude of “How could you!” But He's looking at you with an attitude of, “Oh, my goodness, my daughter! I love you so much! Let's get through this together!”Choosing to forgive can't change your past, but it can change your future. Forgiveness isn't a feeling. Many people think, “I can't forgive because I'm still hurting.” Or “They don't deserve to be forgiven because of what they did.” Forgiveness is a choice, and it affects you more than it does them anyway. You forgive, because when you do, it sets a prisoner free…that prisoner is you! When we choose to hold onto unforgiveness, it makes us bitter. It changes us and not for the better.

Send us a textLast week, in part 1 of this two part series on the UncommonTEEN Podcast, we began talking about how to throw away anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and insecurities for good! God wants you walking in confidence, really embracing who it is that He created you to be! But how do we do that?1. It starts with truly understanding who it is that God says you are.John 3:16 says that you are so loved by God. Ecclesiastes 3:11 says that God makes everything beautiful in its time. You are beautiful! Just the way you are! Jeremiah 1:5 says that before the world was even formed, God knew everything about you and approved of you as His chosen daughter. He set you apart for a purpose.Isaiah 43:4 says that you are precious to God, honored by God, and loved by God!Jeremiah 29:11 says that God has plans for your life that are good. Plans to give you a future and a hope.Luke 12:24 says that you are valuable to God. But In order to truly understand who God says you are, you have to intentionally make the choice to believe it! 2. Rewrite the stories you've been telling yourself. When you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed or not confident in who you are…when those feelings start to pull you down, I want you to stop and think about what you're thinking about. Ask yourself, do these thoughts or do these words that I'm telling myself or maybe someone else said about me…do they line up with what God says about me? Do those thoughts line up with what God says in His Word? The first way you can tell if they do or if they don't is, how are those thoughts making you feel? If they are making you feel anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, or insecure, the answer probably is no…they do not line up with what God says about you. 3. Change your words; change your life. Our circumstances that we are facing cause our thoughts. When we dwell on those thoughts, those thoughts cause the words we begin to speak. When we begin to speak those things over our lives, our words then cause the results that we see. Pick one verse and say it over and over again until those feelings of anxiety leave. “Thank You, Lord that in John 14:27, Jesus says He has given me His peace. I thank you that I have peace.” Then repeat over again over again until you feel that peace, Thank You, Lord for your peace. I have the peace of Jesus. I praise You God for giving me Your peace.” Sometimes you can speak those verses for a couple minutes and anxiety will leave, sometimes you may need to be speaking those verses over yourself for an hour or two, but continue to do it until that anxiety leaves. The Word of God is powerful and can and will destroy the weapons the enemy has used against you!

Send us a textDid you know that it is possible to not let anxiety, stress, overwhelm or insecurities rule your life? Did you know that God actually doesn't want you anxious, stressed, overwhelmed, and insecure? He actually wants you to walk in peace, enjoying life as you walk out confidently who He made you to be! I remember my senior year of high school. I was so insecure…probably one of the most insecure people you would have ever met. I couldn't even look people in the eye when talking to them. Every time I walked into a room and people were laughing, I immediately thought they were laughing about me, when in reality, I was probably the last person on their mind. To say that I was insecure was an understatement. It became a way of life for me to compare myself with everyone I encountered and falling short every time. I was a nobody. I hated everything about myself. This insecurity led to so much anxiety. Going back to my senior year, anxiety attacks became like a friend to me…not one that I cared for either…I always felt like a thousand pound elephant was sitting on my chest and it was so hard to breathe. Praise God, I found Jesus when I was a senior in high school, because this became my only hope that things could get better. I learned that I didn't have to let anxiety, overwhelm, and insecurities run my life anymore. At that time, I couldn't even imagine what it would feel like to be free…a life of joy and peace and confidence, but I clung tight to that hope. I am so thankful I did, because even on the hard days, I kept pushing through and I didn't give up. It wasn't an easy journey, but it was so worth it! At first, there were more bad days than good days. Then the good days started coming a little more. Then over time, the days of anxiety and overwhelm and insecurity were almost obsolete. I would be lying if I said that the anxiety, the overwhelm and the insecurities never come back from time to time, because they do. However, when they do, I go back to these 3 steps that I'm going to share with you this week and next week and do them until those feelings are gone! So how do we kick anxiety, stress, overwhelm, and insecurities to the curb?
