Check out Boll and Branch today and support the Jennie Allen Show! 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 isn’t just knowing truth, but living it out in community.
