In today's episode, Pastor Freddie Albaugh gives Mark Gregston, author, speaker, national radio host, and the founder of Heartlight Ministries a call to chat about how to handle it when we don't like our kids' friends. Mark is immensely passionate about helping kids and parents through the turbulent teenage years and is a great resource for parents, as well.


In this episode you'll hear and learn about:



  • the delusion most kids live under that they have a lot of friends
  • loving despite disagreeing with choices
  • information vs. wisdom that kids interpret
  • motivation in certain relationships
  • early years vs. teen years in how relationships develop
  • using the coaching vs. training model
  • when it's time to intervene in your child's relationship
  • Questions to text your teen right now

  2. How have I not met your needs?
