Teen Stories: Searching for Direction

It’s not uncommon for today’s teens to feel lost — drifting through life without a sense of purpose or direction. In this episode, Mark sits down with two Heartlight residents who both share how a lack of motivation and connection led them into trouble. Fifteen-year-old Peter opens up about struggles with motivation, trust issues after his parents’ divorce, and how falling in with the wrong crowd led to depression and substance use. He’s honest about what it feels like not to have life “figured out” — a feeling so many teens quietly carry.
