You Are Not A Problem To Be Fixed

Made For This with Jennie Allen
About this episode

In this powerful opening episode of Season 19, Jennie Allen takes us into a raw and honest conversation about our thought lives. She shares personal stories from the past 24 hours, filled with anxiety, worry, and struggle while highlighting how common these spirals are in all our lives. But here’s the truth: God isn’t here to fix us. He loves us right where we are, and He wants to walk through these challenges with us.


We’ll dive into God’s Word to remind ourselves that we’re not disappointments—He’s not mad at us. Instead, He offers us grace, peace, and freedom. Jennie guides us through surrendering our burdens to God, helping us let go and trust Him.


Key Takeaways:

  • God doesn’t see you as a problem to be fixed, but as His beloved child.
  • Surrender your anxieties and burdens to God, trusting He will provide.
  • God’s grace is sufficient, and He is present with you in every moment.

Bible Verse: Ephesians 2:4-5

Take a deep breath—you are loved, safe, and seen by God. Let’s walk this journey together.
