"Anything" (Jennie Allen) Book Review for BookLook Bloggers


   I was super excited to read Jennie Allen's newest book, "Anything".  Actually, it is an updated edition of her original book, "Anything",  with a brand new bible study included in the book.  I LOVE IT!   I was introduced to Jennie Allen about 4 years ago when I was given her first bible study, "Stuck".  Immediately,  I fell in love with her teaching style, and her contagious passion for Jesus.

 "Anything" (The Prayer that Unlocked my God and My Soul) tells the story of  what happened after Jennie and her husband prayed a simple, but courageous prayer, "God, we will do anything. Anything".    Jennie shares that the next morning she got up to her normal everyday routine, but she knew that something radical had changed in her heart.  She was totally surrendered, to God and would be willing to say yes to God's Will for her life whatever the cost.

  One of Jennie's passions is to equip and encourage the body of Christ to live a surrendered life to Jesus.  He is real, and He deserves our everything.  I don't want to share too many details about the book, because it is such a precious gem, and I don't want to spoil any of it for you through this review.  However, I will say that this book although easy to read, is not an easy read.  I believe God can use Jennie's book to awaken the soul of Christians to live surrendered lives. Courageous lives. Lives that will count for eternity's sake.

  The beauty of this little book is that it is also a bible study, and Jennie created teaching videos that to complement the book.  I cannot say enough good about this book, so go right away and purchase it, and gather a few of your friends to go through the book and bible study with you :)

Thank you BookLook Bloggers for giving me a complimentary copy of this book to review.

"Restless (DVD STUDY)" Review/ BookSneeze


  I received the "Restless DVD Bible Study" by Jennie Allen, complimentary from the gracious team at BookSneeze.  I in turn agreed to write this review.  Well, I can tell you that it is my joy to write this review as I was anticipating receiving this study since I found out Jennie completed it.  I was introduced to Jennie Allen a few years ago when she released her first bible study, "Stuck" (AMAZING STUDY), and I have been able to read and complete her following books and bible studies.

    Jennie's "Restless" study is based on the life of Joseph from the Bible, and she leads participants through a practical plan to identify the "threads" of their lives.  Jennie hopes that through the study women (and men) will find out how to weave those "threads" together for God and His glory and purposes.

  Some of the topics that are covered during the 8 week study are; God's story,  gifts, suffering, people and passions.  The format of this study is different from Jennie's last two studies as she is teaching before a live audience, and some of her friends share their stories on the DVD.  I have loved her last two studies so it is hard for me to say that this one is better, but I can say it is just as good and the messages Jennie teach are powerful and life changing.  I really truly believe that if a person lets God lead her through this study her life could be changed forevermore.

  I believe Jennie has been gifted by God, and she is one of the voices of our generation that is calling people back to God.  She is passionate for people to know Jesus and experience a relationship with Him that is life changing.  She is true to the "Gospel" message and she will tell you the truth even when it is hard.   Jennie has stated that her heart is to equip and unleash the followers of Jesus to live and love Him and others.

  I understand that there are those that may read this review that don't have a relationship with God and maybe curious as to what all of this "talk" is about.  Although this study is geared toward the follower of Jesus, I believe it could be used to introduce someone  to what God's Story is all about.

 I am sure it is clear from my review, but I highly recommend this study by Jennie Allen and I cannot wait to read the paperback book when it releases.
