It was this season that prompted the writing of the book, a book she states “was by a million miles the most difficult.”Īllen teaches about retraining the mind with weapons God has given us to combat seven strategic enemies such as: combatting busyness with stillness before God, combatting fear with trusting that God is in control and combating cynicism with delight in God. When she recognized this was an attack by the enemy and began fighting the lies as if she was in a battle, things started to change. She candidly shares her own story of a dark season, living with lies that resulted in fear, anxiety and doubt. In Get Out of Your Head, Allen draws from scientific research, findings from mental health professionals, Biblical truths and her own experiences.

She also is founder and visionary of IF:Gathering, an organization that equips women to know God more deeply and to disciple others. Allen is a popular podcaster, sought-after speaker and Bible teacher and author of several books and study guides. Published in 2020 by Waterbrook, Get Out of Your Head is timely and transformational. Noting “we are what we think,” it’s Allen’s passion to help people capture false, destructive thoughts with the interruption, “we have a choice” and deliberately build healthy thought patterns and sound minds based on the truth of God’s Word. And from there, the possibilities are endless.“The greatest spiritual battle of our generation is being fought between our ears,” contends Jennie Allen in her latest, popular book Get Out of Your Head – Stopping the Spiral of Toxic Thoughts. But when we submit our minds to Christ, the promises and goodness of God flood our lives in remarkable ways.

Our enemy is determined to get in our heads to make us feel helpless, overwhelmed, and incapable of making a difference for the kingdom of God. In Get Out of Your Head, Jennie inspires and equips us to transform our emotions, our outlook, and even our circumstances by taking control of our thoughts. Freedom comes when we refuse to be victims to our thoughts and realize we have already been equipped with power from God to fight and win the war for our minds. Jennie Allen knows what it’s like to swirl in a spiral of destructive thoughts, but she also knows we don’t have to stay stuck in toxic thinking patterns.Īs she discovered in her own life, God built a way for us to escape that downward spiral. Other people have better lives than I do. Are your thoughts holding you captive? I’ll never be good enough.
