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
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.Follow JudahFind Judah's Book 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.Drawing from Scripture and insights from Curt Thompson, this conversation reframes desire as something God-given that often gets misdirected.Resources & Links:Get the 2026 Dream Guide hereFight Your Lie Tour Tickets hereREGISTER TO HOST AN IF:LOCALListen to more episodes: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeLearn More About JennieFollow Jennie on social:InstagramFacebookJennie’s new book "The Lie You Don't Know You Believe" is available for pre-order NOW - GRAB A COPY HERE!

Jennie and Zac share what it looks like to lead when the weight is heavy, when clarity feels distant, and when faith means stepping out onto the water without being able to see the boat anymore.

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.Resources & Links:Fight Your Lie Tour Tickets hereBe a part of what God is doing and give hereGet the 2026 Dream Guide hereREGISTER TO HOST AN IF:LOCALListen to more episodes: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeLearn More About JennieFollow Jennie on social:InstagramFacebookJennie’s new book "The Lie You Don't Know You Believe" is available for pre-order NOW - GRAB A COPY HERE!
We all want transformation - but so many of us feel stuck. 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 dives into the tension between grace and discipline, how spiritual growth really happens, and the small daily rhythms that lead to real life change. If you’ve been frustrated, exhausted, or wondering why things aren’t shifting, this conversation will give you clarity, hope, and a path forward.Resources & Links:Be a part of what God is doing and give hereGet the 2026 Dream Guide hereREGISTER TO HOST AN IF:LOCALListen to more episodes: Apple Podcasts | Spotify | YouTubeLearn More About JennieFollow Jennie on social:InstagramFacebookJennie’s new book "The Lie You Don't Know You Believe" is available for pre-order NOW - GRAB A COPY HERE!

I grew up listening to my dad reading from Max Lucado's books. When he finished reading we would all would say, "Boy, he writes well!" My mom passed away in September and I thought I was solid, but I suddenly needed to KNOW where she was and what she was doing. I knew God had her and I loved to imagine her in her new home- made just right. To hear Max say that she is in Heaven (not sleeping), tears sprang to my eyes and my heart leapt. So greatful for those words.

This is so good! Faith also comes by speaking the Promise not the Problem! Speak His promises over your life, and you will put a seed into the ground that grows very rapidly.

Hi Jennie, I am a 19 years old. I want to say thank you for the work that you’re doing. As I listen to this, I am so in awe of our God and how He’s moving in one of the most dangerous countries in the world. I am going to commit to praying for our Afghan brothers and sisters every single day. God has awakened me. Thank you.

Wow! Jill is amazing! There were alot of things she said that spoke to my mind heart and soul. The one that will always stick with me is "Courage is fear we prayed on". Im not a crier at all but by the end of the prayers I was balling. Thank you to both of you, Jennie for being Jill to me and Jill for saying what you did.
