The First Step in Knowing Who You Are
1259
When we take inventory of all the pieces that make us whole, it is unlikely they are all thriving at the same time.

When that happens, our identities can become tied to our achievements. But know this: God is after a relationship with you. He doesn’t want you to do more or achieve more.

Join us for 12 weeks, 24 episodes where we take an honest look at the parts of you and the God who makes us whole. I want to walk beside you in this tension and remind you what Scripture tells us that God wants for us. Forward this to your friends, gather your people, and process this in community.

What's Happening in Afghanistan? Stories from Believers on the Ground with Jennie and Pastor X

What we are witnessing right now is the decimation of the country and people of Afghanistan. The Taliban has a hit list of known Christians that they are targeting to hunt down and kill.

History has shown that persecution grows the church and you guys.. these Jesus followers on the ground in Afghanistan are still on mission, hopeful, and willing to die for their faith.

Peace over Chaos - Season 7 starts Feb. 2nd!
622
NEW YEAR, NEW SEASON and we missed you!! If there’s ever been a time where we need people to grab us by the shoulders and tell us what is true and what is real, it is right now. We don’t need big fancy words to get us through our days, we need to go back to the simple and pure things God has given us to stay close to Him and love people well. There is a way out of the chaos in our minds, the fear, the confusion and lack of vision - it’s in clinging to our Bibles and knowing what to do next because of it. Let’s spend 10 weeks going back to the basics every single one of us needs to know… things like how to pray, what to do with sin, how to read your Bible, and why we all need to have fun sometimes. These 10 weeks will give you practical steps you can take right now and challenge you to follow God and go deeper with Him.

Season 6 is coming Sep 29th and we can't wait! Are you worn down? Burnt out? Are your hardest emotions feeling unbearable? The things we have used to prop up our pain have been kicked out from under us during COVID and what is underneath is exposed. We stay busy. We stay entertained. We numb out. All to avoid facing these hard emotions. And for the first time, we’re realizing it. But we don’t have to stay there….
Do you want to get free? Do you want to use this pandemic season well? Do you want your relationships to change? Do you want to know God more? This season, we are going to spend the next 10 weeks facing things like shame, deep sadness, isolation, bitterness, and anger and get practical. We’re going to dive deep into our Bibles and stay there. We’re going to pull people in and get honest. We’re going to come out the other side different people. You ready? This season will have incredible guests, people with real stories, and even more ways to interact with this podcast community. |

Little kids ask hard questions. Am I saying the right thing? Am I explaining that enough? You’re met with blank stares. Or maybe their curiosity is deeper and bigger than you could ever dream.

Even if you don't have kids, don’t tune out on this. This is important for all of us to get the basics right. Why am I here? What is sin? Where is heaven? Do I know God?

Introducing Season 3: Get Out of Your Head
568
SEASON 3 STARTS ON JANUARY 28th!
I hear all the time from people who feel stuck in patterns of frustration and defeat. In my search for a solution, I learned that the greatest spiritual battle of our generation is taking place between our ears. How we think shapes how we live. So it's crucial that we learn how to stop our spinning thoughts and refuse to fall prey to toxic thinking patterns like victimhood, anxiety, and distraction. In Season 3 of the Made for This podcast, we will focus on biblical truth and recent discoveries in neuroscience to show exactly how we can fight the enemies of the mind with the truth of who God is and who He calls us to be. "Be transformed by the renewing of your mind..." This means it's possible. Get your copy of Get Out of Your Head and read along with us: getoutofyourheadbook.com |

1266
When I travel around the country and ask rooms full of people whether they struggle with anxiety or control, the entire room raises their hands. Many of us aren't entirely sure why our chests are tight, why we're spiraling in fear, many of us have very real life circumstances that give us reason to be afraid. God wants to meet us in this place and I want to talk about fear in this episode.

1598
All of us have expectations, and when those expectations are not met, we get angry. The sneaky thing about anger is that most people, when you ask them if they’re an angry person, would say no! Anger doesn’t always look like yelling, fits of rage, public. Let’s take an honest look at our anger and go to Scripture for our help.

Introducing Season 2: STUCK
348
So many of us live stuck. Stuck in trying to seem perfect. Stuck in sadness. Stuck feeling numb. Stuck pursuing more stuff to make us happy. Stuck in something we can't even name. These stuck places often go unattended inside of us and they are shaping our lives more than we would like to think. We've been trying to fix this feeling with everything but... God. He has a plan for these spaces inside of us, the places we feel broken, but we have to go to Him. Season 2 of the Made for This Podcast is here! And we’re going to get UNSTUCK. Let’s talk about anger, discontentment, overwhelm, fear and sadness…. some of the places we all get stuck. There will be interviews and Scripture every week. Come on this journey with us to take an honest look at the fight going on inside that leads us to the God who can set us free!

Pressure produces some of the best work and the best creativity. It causes me to be intentional in my relationships and conversations.

Let's talk about 5 ways you can look differently at pressure in life and see it as a help rather than something to avoid at all cost.

16 - The Power of Need
1108
One of the biggest barriers I think we all face in friendship is expressing our own needs. I struggle with this! A friend I love told me recently, “Jennie, I just don’t think you need me!” It couldn’t be farther from the truth, but she was right. I have a hard time telling my friends what’s going on in my life and what I need from them. We all just stay within our lines and wave politely at each other rather than getting into the everyday parts of each other’s lives. When I talk about these hard things on the show, just know I’m right there with you in this. I believe in us team!

Are we truly listening to understand? Are we giving them God not just catchphrases that will help for a moment? Let's dive into this and press the reset button on our conversations. It could change someone's life forever!

Zac and I have fought hard for the marriage we have now. We've been married for 22 years and I can't imagine a more supportive spouse and we absolutely delight in cheering each other on. We have become the best of friends but I mean it when I say it is hard-fought. Five years in, we wondered if we were going to make it at all. Whether you are single, in a difficult marriage, or in a marriage you hope is constantly getting better, I hope episode 6 encourages you and gives you a lot of hope.

03 - How to Have Life-Giving Conversations
774
What do you and your friends circle around? Do you find yourself coming home from hanging out with your friends feeling discouraged or encouraged? I think the answer to how we have life-giving relationships lies in what we talk about, what we circle around. We can shift the entire culture of our friendships by doing this one thing... quit talking about other people.

01 - The Secret to Healthy Relationships
807
How do I make friends? This is a question we all ask no matter our age or stage of life. Join me as I talk about the biggest problem we face as we try to make friends. The Apostle Paul, the author of the letter to the Philippian church, knew this and knew friendship and community were not about him, it was about others and about living on mission.
Let’s look at the book of Philippians together to see what happens when God is at the center of our relationships. Let’s also address the elephant in the room… co-dependency. How do we know if we’re in a co-dependent relationship and what do we do about it? We’re going there in episode 1… join us!
