This week, Jennie sits down with viral content creator Davide De Pierro to talk about the unexpected rise of his platform - and why his unfiltered, everyday observations are resonating with millions. Together, they talk about identity, self-awareness, faith, and the tension of navigating influence without letting it define you.

Jennie closes out The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe Book Club with a powerful sendoff: freedom isn’t the finish line - it’s the starting point.  She reminds us that real revival doesn’t begin in crowds or movements, it begins in individual hearts. And more often than not, it starts with something simple but costly: honesty. Confession. Bringing what’s hidden into the light. This episode is both a celebration and a commission: you’ve done the work…now it’s time to live it and lead others into it.

This week, Jennie sits down with longtime friend Francis Chan to talk about identity, discipleship, and what it really means to be loved by God. Francis shares how, despite a painful childhood, God used the faithfulness of ordinary people to reshape his life. Together, they challenge the idea that impact happens on platforms, reminding us that real transformation happens in relationships. They also tackle a deeper struggle many carry - knowing God loves us, but not fully believing it - and why experiencing that love is what actually leads to freedom.

Check out Boll and Branch today and support the Jennie Allen Show! In week five of the book club for The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe, Jennie dives into what may be the deepest lie underneath them all: the belief that we are alone. While the core lies - I’m helpless, I’m worthless, I’m unlovable - show up in different ways, they all point to one underlying fear: I will end up alone. Jennie unpacks how this belief fuels anxiety, depression, and disconnection - and why the antidote isn’t just knowing truth, but living it out in community.

In this episode, Jennie sits down with Ryan Miller to talk honestly about spiritual warfare - what it actually looks like, why so many of us feel it right now, and how to fight back without living in fear. Ryan shares his story of chasing success, identity, and performance, only to discover that the presence of God is what truly satisfies. Together, they dive into real conversations about the spiritual realm, fear, authority, and what it means to live from a posture of victory. This episode doesn’t just name the battle - it equips you to fight it.

This week, Jennie walks through Book Club chapters 9-11 of The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe and answers the question we’ve all been building toward: how do we actually live free?

This week, Jennie sits down with therapist, author, and podcast host Dr. Adam Young for an honest conversation about story, trauma, healing, and why the lies we believe are often rooted far deeper than we realize. They talk about how childhood experiences shape our nervous systems, why you cannot simply “think” your way out of pain, and how real healing happens through integration, honesty, and safe relationships. If you have ever wondered why you still react so strongly to certain situations, why some lies feel impossible to shake, or why your story still affects you now, this episode will help make sense of it. This conversation is deep, compassionate, and full of hope.

This week, Jennie continues the book club through The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe by moving beyond simply identifying lies - and into what it actually looks like to live free. She shares why knowing truth isn’t enough on its own, how Jesus modeled resisting lies in Matthew 4, and what it means to live from a completely different kingdom.

Jennie is joined by her friend and brother-in-ministry, Jonathan Pokluda, for a real conversation about spiritual warfare, identity, and the promises of God. JP shares how the enemy attacks through lies, especially in the places where we feel most vulnerable, and why staying close to Jesus is the only way to fight back. Together, they talk about the gap between what God has promised and what we’re still waiting to see - and how to hold fast in the middle of it. If you’ve been feeling pressure, opposition, or exhaustion lately, this episode will remind you that God is still with you in the fight.

Jennie continues the The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe book club by focusing on one of the most important steps toward freedom: naming the lie you’ve been believing. She walks through the three core lies - I am helpless, I am worthless, and I am unlovable - and how they quietly shape our lives, keeping us stuck in shame and striving. But the good news is that God offers a different story. Instead of trying to prove ourselves, control everything, or earn love, He meets us in the gap we could never cross on our own.

In this episode, Jennie sits down with Jonathan Rivera to talk about what happened at SEU during the 10-day outpouring that changed everything. Together, they relive the moment the room shifted, the confession that broke everything open, and what it was like to watch students stay, worship, repent, pray, and respond to the presence of God in a way neither of them had experienced before. They also talk about the cost of stewarding a move of God, the practical leadership it required, and why they believe this was never just about one room - it was about sending people out to the ends of the earth.

In this episode, Jennie sits down with her longtime friend, mentor, and counselor Dr. Curt Thompson for a deep conversation about lies, healing, shame, neuroplasticity, and the power of community. Together, they explore why the lies we believe about ourselves can feel so normal that we stop noticing them, how those lies get embedded in us over time, and why freedom takes more than just hearing the truth once. This conversation is a powerful reminder that healing is not just about information - it is about practice, remembrance, and being deeply known by safe people.

Check out Boll and Branch today and support the Jennie Allen Show! Welcome to Week One of the Book Club for The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe. In this episode, Jennie kicks off the journey by introducing the core idea behind the book: there is likely one foundational lie shaping the way you see yourself, God, and the world - and you may not even realize you believe it. But freedom begins when we learn to name the lie, understand the battle happening in our minds, and step into the truth of God’s kingdom.

In this special live episode from Waco, Texas, Jennie sits down with her friend Jonathan “JP” Pokluda to talk about The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe, how core lies get planted in us, and what it looks like to actually fight them with truth, community, and the presence of Jesus. Together, they unpack the three core lies so many people live under - I am helpless, I am unlovable, I am worthless - and how those lies often begin with real wounds, real moments, and real pain from childhood.

We are bringing back one of our favorite episodes! What if following Jesus was less about carrying responsibility and more about responding to invitation? In part one of this conversation, Jennie sits down with Jamie Winship to talk about identity - not as something we achieve, but something we receive. Jamie shares his story of becoming a police officer, working in war zones, and learning to bring who he is into what he does, rather than letting his work define him. Jamie introduces two simple questions that have reshaped how Jennie leads, decides, and lives: “God, what do you want me to know?” and “What do you want me to do?” This episode invites us to slow down, listen, and remember that God is not asking us to carry everything - He’s asking us to respond to Him.  Resources & Links:Jennie’s new book "The Lie You Don't Know You Believe" is available for pre-order NOW - GRAB A COPY HERE!Join the fight clubFight Your Lie Tour Tickets hereREGISTER TO HOST AN IF:LOCALListen to more episodes: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeLearn More About JennieFollow Jennie on social:InstagramFacebook

We talk a lot about sin, discipline, and behavior - but rarely about desire. In this episode, Jennie explores where our longings actually come from and why desire itself isn’t the problem.

This message is a wake-up call. Jennie unpacks the spiritual war happening in our generation - not just out there in the world, but in our minds. If you’ve been feeling the darkness get darker, the pressure get heavier, or the lies get louder… you are not imagining it. But the light is getting brighter too. And God is raising up an army. Jennie shares the three core lies the enemy whispers - I am worthless, I am helpless, I am unlovable - and shows how each one shuts us down, keeps us stuck, and keeps us from stepping into the good works God has prepared for us.

Jennie shares why change might not be happening in your life and the subtle ways we wait for God to do what He’s actually invited us to participate in.

This episode is all about burnout, pressure, and what happens when we’re doing good things but feel completely worn out. Jennie shares how exhaustion often comes not from the work God gave us - but from the expectations, control, and fear we add on top of it.

Waiting isn’t wasted. In the “slow burn” seasons - infertility, unanswered prayers, long obedience - God forms identity, deepens trust, and writes better stories than we could plan.

Most of life isn’t a launch or a finish line. It’s the middle, mundane, conflicted, unglamorous, and that’s exactly where God grows our maturity, resilience, and trust. Jennie names the “messy middle” we all live in: between starting and celebrating, between intention and fruit. Looking at scripture, parenting moments, and the behind-the-scenes of launching Gather25, she reframes the middle as holy ground. This is where perseverance forms character, trust replaces control, and faithfulness becomes the measure of a life with God.

In this episode, Jennie Allen sits down once again with Dr. Curt Thompson. They dive deep into the connection between our thoughts, emotions, and relationships, exploring how true transformation comes not just from "stopping spirals" but from deep attachment and connection with God and others. He challenges the idea that we can simply "think our way out" of struggles and instead reveals how co-regulation, secure relationships, and community are essential to emotional and spiritual health. This conversation is rich, thought-provoking, and filled with wisdom on how to rewrite the stories we tell ourselves, combat shame, and truly rest in the love of God. Key Takeaways: You are not alone in your struggles – healing happens in relationships, not isolation. Spiritual growth is about attachment – we were designed for connection with God and others. Your story matters – bringing hidden parts of yourself into the light leads to true transformation. Faith isn’t just about the future – God is preparing us now for the life to come. This is a conversation you don’t want to miss! Plus, hear why Curt and Jennie are passionate about partnering with Compassion International to support children and families in need.

In today's episode, Jennie talks with Dallas Jenkins about his newest project, The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. For Dallas, this film is more than nostalgic entertainment; it’s the fulfillment of a calling. After years of praying for the chance to tell this story, he brings the Christmas message to life, sharing the true meaning of "unto you a child is born." Dallas believes that Christ came for everyone, especially the outsider and the overlooked.  Dallas also opens up about the challenges of surrendering outcomes to God, especially in a success-driven world. He shares how he’s learned to offer his "five loaves and two fish" and leave the rest in God’s hands, a lesson that has been central to both The Chosen and The Best Christmas Pageant Ever. Through storytelling, Dallas hopes to remove barriers that people often face with faith, presenting Jesus in a way that is both authentic and accessible.

This week, Jennie Allen shares a powerful teaching on spiritual warfare from her home church (Watermark) at their Young Adult gathering, The Porch. Pastor Timothy Ateek sets the stage as Jennie dives into the reality of the unseen war around us. Jennie reminds us of the call to be alert and sober-minded, as 1 Peter 4:8 instructs. We can't ignore the battle God has invited us into. She also addresses two common lies: that either everything is the devil, or nothing is. The enemy’s greatest desire is to go unnoticed, but we must be vigilant, recognize his schemes, and fight back. Don’t coast—join the battle as a follower of Jesus!

And don’t miss the moment when she begins to read Ephesians 6 at the end—it’s a strong reminder of the reality of spiritual warfare and the armor of God.

In this episode, Jennie continues her exploration of the book of Galatians. This time, she focuses on the tension in chapter 5 as Paul presents a contrasting message. Throughout most of Galatians, Paul emphasizes that our salvation is not dependent on our performance or adherence to the law.

Jennie shows us while it may be tempting to judge others or focus on external behaviors, the key lies in understanding the inner transformation that comes from being filled with the Holy Spirit. MAIN POINTS: 00:00 Jennie continues her deep dive into Galatians in Made for This Season 15 00:10 The book of Galatians emphasizes that believers are no longer subject to the law but to Christ. 2:09 Jennie reads from Galatians Chapter 5 2:26 Paul lists the works of the flesh, such as sexual immorality, idolatry, and jealousy, warning that those who practice such things will not inherit the kingdom of God. 2:47 On the other hand, the fruit of the Spirit includes love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. 3:56 Jennie explains why each individual's salvation is a personal matter between them and God, and only they can truly know if they are saved. 6:17 The evidence of salvation is a changed heart and a desire to turn away from sin. 9:43 Jennie emphasizes the importance of recognizing the spiritual realm and the battle between darkness and light. 18:15 Jennie explains what this passage means for her practically. 19:23 Jennie talks about the rule Billy Graham had about other ministries.

Jennie and Dr. Chole’s conversation shows us how God is inviting us to be with Him in that darkness and explains why challenging and questioning Him is all part of the process.

When's the last time you said 'I'll just do it myself'? You are never truly alone. In this episode, Jennie takes us through Galatians 1:6-10, where the apostle Paul is mad people are confusing others and making God’s love more complicated than it is. We learn people have always grappled with salvation because so often we think of Christianity as our actions and behaviors. The parallels Jennie draws between Paul's message and her personal experiences help us to see God’s grace; and that it is not about our efforts to please Him but rather our relationship and trust in him.

We are all under pressure whether it’s expectations, trying to achieve something, or even the weight of trying not to disappoint people. But - it isn’t always an enemy, sometimes it can even be a gift. Over the next 12 weeks, we will walk through Galatians on Tuesdays and a different guest will join me on Thursdays. We'll answer questions like - have I really accepted who I am and who I am not? Can I let other people be different, think differently? When do I know when I've messed up too many times for God? Let's talk about it.
