âMy dear friend Jennie Allen shows us how to make true emotional connections with the right people so that our authentic relationships can be healthy for all.ââLysa TerKeurst, author of Itâs Not Supposed to Be This Way
Â
In a world thatâs both more connected and more isolating than ever before, weâre often tempted to do life alone, whether because weâre so busy or because relationships feel risky and hard. But science confirms that consistent, meaningful connection with others has a powerful impact on our well-being. We are meant to live known and loved. But so many are hiding behind emotional walls that weâre experiencing an epidemic of loneliness.
Â
In Find Your People, bestselling author Jennie Allen draws on fascinating insights from science and history, timeless biblical truth, and vulnerable stories from her own life to help you:
⢠overcome the barriers to making new friends and learn to initiate with easy-to-follow steps
⢠find simple ways to press through awkward to get to authentic in conversations
⢠understand how conflict can strengthen relationships rather than destroy them
⢠identify the type of friend you are and the types of friends you need
⢠learn the five practical ingredients you need to have the type of friends youâve always longed for
Â
You were created to play, engage, adventure, and exploreâwith others. In Find Your People, youâll discover exactly how to dive into the deep end and experience the full wonder of community. Because while the ache of loneliness is real, it doesnât have to be your reality.
