What does it mean to have a ‘Holy Ambition’? I mean what does that look like in everyday life? In this special edition of Living on the Edge with Chip Ingram, Chip sits down with best-selling author, and speaker – Jennie Allen. She’ll share how Chip’s book Holy Ambition changed her life and helped jump-start her own ministry, that impacts countless lives.

Introduction to Holy Ambition: Chip and Jennie discuss how God brings heart-placed dreams to reality.

Heart Dislocation & Strategic Action:

• Jennie's heart was "haunted" by spiritual bondage in women, fueling her evangelistic passion.

The Cost of Obedience:

• IF:Gathering launch was met with personal and family hardship—a "dumpster fire" for five years.
• God used this pain to purify her motives and deepen her faith, protecting her from spiritual corruption.
• Emphasizes that pain is essential for profound spiritual growth and broad impact.

True Holy Ambition:

• It's about obedience to God's unique calling, not seeking fame or platform.
• IF:Gathering's core mission: building tools and experiences to make disciples who make disciples through local churches.
