Most struggling teens hold a story inside their hearts: a story of searching, hurt and hope. In today’s episode, Mark sits down with two Heartlight teens who open up about their personal battles with loneliness, depression and not feeling “good enough.” Both teens carried the weight of fractured relationships and unmet needs — one longing for a father’s involvement, the other wrestling with feelings of isolation and the pain of not being seen.
