Why do I react like that? | Jennie Allen with Dr. Adam Young

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.

When the Battle Feels Personal with Jonathan Pokluda

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.

Book Club Week Two: The Story Beneath the Story

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.

Behind the Scenes of What Happened at SEU with Jonathan Rivera

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.

The Lie, the Brain, and the Way We Heal with Dr. Curt Thompson

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.

Book Club Week One: Freedom Starts Here

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.

BONUS EPISODE: Live in Waco with Jonathan Pokluda and Jennie Allen

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.

Jennie pulls back the curtain and shows us exactly what it looks like to fight the lies in real time.

This episode is raw, vulnerable, and powerful - a front-row seat to what spiritual warfare actually looks like.

If your life is built on ?I am worthless,? ?I am unlovable,? or ?I am helpless,? it will shape every decision you make.

You are not helpless.
You are not worthless.
You are not unlovable.
And you don?t have to fight alone.

Flashback Friday: Conflict Zones, The CIA, and Listening to God with Jamie Winship

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.

People-Pleasing, Fear, and the Cost of Faithfulness with Judah Smith

In this episode, Jennie sits down with Judah Smith for an honest conversation about faith, leadership, pride, people-pleasing, and what it really means to stay spiritually healthy in public ministry. Judah shares vulnerably about his journey as a pastor, author, and leader navigating platform, criticism, and the tension between obedience to God and approval from people. Together, they explore how true spiritual formation is often hidden, slow, and deeply rooted in character, family, and presence with Jesus - not scale or success.

Feeling helpless? Worthless? Unlovable? Listen the this.

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.

Fighting back against burnout

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.

She talks about learning to keep her head down, stay in her lane, ask for help, and trust God for daily bread. Enough for today. Not more. Not less.

If you?ve been trying to push through on your own strength, this conversation is for you.

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.

DawnCheré shares a raw, hope-filled framework for living faithfully in the middle: worship as a daily rhythm, community as oxygen, gratitude as a superpower, and surrender as strategy.

The Messy Middle

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.

What I Wish I Knew In My 20's

Your 20s are overwhelming, daunting, and humbling in every way. So many of us fight to build the perfect plan, be known, and get it all right.

In this episode Jennie talks things she wishes she would have known in her 20's - about letting go of our plans, saying "yes" to God over and over again, and finding community where you can be fully known. If you?ve ever felt behind, uncertain, or alone, this one will remind you: you don?t have to have it all figured out.

The Cost Of Obedience with Joe L Barnes

What if the point isn?t platform, but friendship with God? Jennie sits down with Joe L. Barnes -worship leader, Grammy-winning songwriter (?Promises?), and tender shepherd-at-heart - to talk about obeying God?s voice, writing songs from real pain, and letting Jesus define success.

Joe shares how intimacy with God has become the anchor of his calling. You?ll also hear the beautiful Psalm 23 picture behind his project Good Shepherd (and a wild lesson about sheep, oil, and healing).

You?ll hear:
Obedience over optics: the one decision to follow God?s voice that opened every door
Good Shepherd theology: why ?You anoint my head with oil? means protection, healing, and rest for anxious hearts
Collaboration & communion: real talk before great songs - and why we?re made for both
Grief & marriage: holding loss and love at the same time, and the legacy Joe wants more than platform
