The Devoted Dreamers Podcast

Whether you have a dream in your heart or aren’t sure what God might be calling you to, The Devoted Dreamers Podcast will encourage you on the journey. This space is dedicated to sharing stories every week of women who are following Jesus and pursuing their God-given gifts in beautifully imperfect ways. You’ll hear about the fears and challenges that threaten their dreams as well as the joy, courage and confidence that comes from following Jesus even in the unexpected…especially in the unexpected.

I’m your host, Merritt Onsa, and my prayer is that this show will meet you where you are in your walk with God. I hope you will come away from the podcast each week with encouragement to begin pursuing your own dreams even when you still feel flawed, imperfect, unfinished and not ready. Because if you wait until you are perfect, you will never take the first step. Join us!

50 Interview with Jennie Allen: Best-Selling Author | Visionary | Called to Disciple a Generation

Jun 21, 2017

Jennie Allen is an award-winning and bestselling author of Nothing to Prove, Anything and Restless, as well as the Bible Studies Stuck, Chase, Restless and her most recent, Proven. As the founder and visionary for the IF: Gathering, she is a passionate leader following God’s call on her life to catalyze a generation of women to live what they believe. Jennie has a master’s degree in Biblical studies from Dallas Theological Seminary and lives in Austin, Texas, with her husband, Zac, and their four children.   

Jennie has a wealth of wisdom to share with dreamers like us because she is one of us. She has struggled, fought back fear, and lived to see a dream that’s bigger than herself come to fruition.

Some of my favorite parts of this conversation are hearing what has given her confidence to keep going when it’s difficult, what it’s taken to move from “fear” to “fun” in pursuing her dream, and that it’s so not about her.

I also love what she says about the importance of our obedience to the calling on our lives – especially when fear threatens to stand in our way.

This episode is a packed 40 minutes of goodness; the perfect ending to season two of The Devoted Dreamers Podcast. I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed speaking with Jennie.
