How to Find Friends as an Adult with Jennie Allen


Listen Later

Hey friends! The lovely Jennie Allen is on the show with me today. If the last two years taught us anything, it’s that we need friendships and community more than ever. Our conversation is a  powerful reminder that we need to look for new relationships and fight for those who matter. 

Tune in to hear us talk about society's past and present and the results of those changes. And Jennie’s insights about why women struggle with friendships or finding friends. We also chat about Jennie’s new adventure into the world of TikTok, what she experienced at Passion last year, her new book, and what happens when you’re obedient to God. 

Jennie is the founder and visionary of women’s organization IF: Gathering, the host of the top-rated Made for This podcast, and the New York Times bestselling author of Get Out of Your Head

Listen in to learn more about: 

  1. How obeying God brings the supernatural into our everyday lives. 
  • What causes our generation to be the loneliest and what we can do about it.
  • How to identify what makes for a good friend and what are some red flags to look for in our current relationships. 
  • Favorite quotes:

    1. Our God is communal and built us not as people to do community, but we are, in our essence, community. We are literally, from the womb, communal people who come from a communal, triune God who is three in one in His being.
  • When we expect to disappoint people and we expect them to disappoint us there is a lot more grace in the world to mess up and to work it out.
  • You don’t need perfect -You just need that we can actually go somewhere and be awkward together and spend time together.
  • We are broken as a culture, and something has to change. We all came out of the womb looking for someone looking for us.
