Meet Jennifer!

Hello and welcome to When God Allows! 

What do you do when you struggle with how a "good" God would allow terrible things to happen? That's been my battleground throughout most of my life, a crack in my foundation that I could never seem to fix. 

 As a survivor of abuse, I struggled with how God would allow me to endure such tragedy. I questioned His goodness and His love for me. It was rock bottom through a broken life, a pile of regret, and nowhere else to turn that I met Jesus and the power of His healing. 

Today, I'm a Jesus-loving girl with a heart for bringing the love of Christ to a broken soul. Through my story, I hope to minister to and point others to the healing power of Jesus, share His gospel, and bring light to the ever-present darkness. 

So blessed you're here!

How many of us are walking around, going through the motions, living lifewith smiles on our faces and Instagram posts of our perfect lives, but inreality, underneath that fake facade,…
