The Jennie Allen Podcast

What if the thing holding you back isn’t a lack of talent - but a lack of courage?

Jennie sits down with pastor, author, and Gather leader Al Gordon to talk about revival, creativity, and why so many of us dismiss the ideas God has placed inside us. Al shares stories what God is doing in London, why creativity is a spiritual gift for every believer, and how fear of failure keeps us from stepping into what God is calling us to do.

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. Davide shares how his upbringing shaped his perspective, why he refuses to take himself too seriously, and how he’s using his platform to point people toward something more mea...

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.

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...

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 fi...

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 epis...

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. If you’ve felt stuck, discouraged, or overwhelmed in the fight against lies, this episode will help you take your next step forward.

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...

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...

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...

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.

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 int...

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. Through honest stories, live Q&A, and pr...

In this episode, Jennie sits down with her husband, Zac, for a conversation about marriage, identity, spiritual warfare, counseling, parenting, and the core lies that quietly shape our lives.

They also talk about Zac's own journey through depression and burnout, how performance died in him through suffering, and why that freedom changed everything. Together, they reflect on how lies form under the surface, how healing takes real work, and why The Lie You Don’t Know You Believe matters so much.

It’s Book Launch Day!!!
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.
But there is another story.

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

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.

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.
