Summary

On this episode of the Journeywomen podcast I had the privilege of chatting with Jennie Allen. Jennie is a Bible teacher marked by personal authenticity and vulnerability. She encourages women to go to these same places as they study scripture, wrestle with truth, and more fully live out their short time on this planet. Jennie and Zac have four children, Connor, Kate, Caroline, and Cooper. She writes Bible studies, authors books, and founded a live event called IF:Gathering designed to gather, equip, and unleash the next generation to live out their purpose. She’s a mom, a wife, and most of all--totally obsessed with following Jesus and imparting that passion to other women, which is exactly what we talked about today. Jennie really encouraged me to pursue real relationships with the goal of making disciples. My sincere hope is that this podcast will serve as a springboard for conversations within the context of your real-life community, like your own small groups, the women at your church, your co-workers, the girls in your dorm room, or with mamas at the park. I’m praying that intentional conversations centered around the Word of God will challenge and deepen your faith while strengthening your relationships with your mentors and disciples.

Welcome to the Journey Women Podcast. I'm your host, Hunter Beelis. Life's a journey

0:09.0

we were never meant to walk alone. We all need friends along the way. On the Journey Women

0:13.7

Podcast, we'll chat with mentors about gracefully navigating the seasons and challenges we

0:17.9

face on our journeys to glorify God. On this episode of the Journey Women Podcast, I

0:23.6

had the privilege of chatting with somebody you might have heard of, Jenny Allen. If you

0:27.7

don't know where, Jenny is a Bible teacher marked by personal authenticity and vulnerability.

0:32.7

She encourages women to go to those same places as they study scripture, wrestle with truth,

0:37.4

and more fully live out their short time on the planet. Jenny writes Bible studies, authors

books, and she founded a live event called the If Gathering. She's also a mom, a wife,

0:46.8

and most of all, totally obsessed with following Jesus and imparting that passion to other

0:51.8

women, which is exactly what we talk about today on the topic of leading small group studies.

I hope you all find our conversation as inspiring as I did. It's just an honor to have you

on the show. Welcome to the Journey Women Podcast. Yeah, it's good to be here, Hunter. Thanks

1:07.5

for having me. Well, what did I miss? Can you fill the listeners in on kind of your work

1:12.3

and how you got to where you are today? Well, I mean, I think it was just, I think you

1:17.1

summarized it pretty well of following Jesus. I mean, this definitely wasn't part of our

1:21.9

plan and we didn't have a 10 to 15 year goals and ambitions list. There was just the

1:27.5

follow Jesus thing. And as we've done that, he's just been so dear to bring in our lives,

1:33.4

things that we love to do. And my husband and I both are deeply passionate about building

1:38.5

the kingdom in different ways. And so for me, that's looked like a lot of creation, whether

1:43.4

it's building an experience like If Gathering or whether it's building an experience like

1:47.1
