Episode 126 Grounded in Chaos: Helping Teens Navigate Today’s Pressures

Megg Hondru and Luke Mantzell join host Ron Moore to discuss the challenges teens face today that look nothing like they did a generation ago.  Through personal stories, frontline experience, and honest conversation, we explore:

• Where a passion for reaching teens begins
• The hidden pressures teens carry that most adults miss
• How parents can start difficult conversations around shame, mental health, and technology
• What it looks like to truly show up for teens in today’s culture
• And how faith and the message of Christ fit into these conversations in a real, practical way

This episode isn’t about fear—it’s about awareness, presence, and hope.

If you’re a parent, mentor, or simply someone who cares about the next generation, this conversation will challenge and encourage you.
