Maybe Brandon would go if it would sell a plot at Round Mountain Reserve and maybe Jen would consider it if it meant she move some books, courses or whatever it is she's shilling. I think they both feel as if the church hurt them when they came out with their views. However, I doubt they'd ever be able to look inward to see that they themselves also probably hurt members of ANC. I've gotten the impression that both of them have walked completely away from their faith.

Jen still likes to bring up Jesus, though. But he sounds more like a hype man and her personal genie. “Fix it Jesus!”
Not quite sure how you can throw out the Bible, but keep Him?

Her own private hype man. I laughed at that. Isn't that the perfect way to describe how these people talk about God/Jesus, though?

In case anyone’s forgotten… this is a snark/gossip forum. No one posting on this site is genuinely concerned about Jen. This space exists solely for the purpose of sharing frustration, anger, and annoyance that people cannot gather and discuss any other way. It’s a modern day small town quilt circle. And people can say they’re concerned and offer prayers and dress up their posts however they want to. But at the end of the day we’re all just here for the tea and the Jen bashing.

100% and no one needs to go sit in the dark and think about how they think about Jen.

I wonder if Jen knows that she’s a predatory actor. Or if she truly believes that she’s “serving her people” and is a force of good in the world.

Maybe it depends on the day?

But then again, she’s not stupid. She HAS to know she’s a grifter schemer, right?

I think there was a time when she really believed that. But she absolutely knows what she’s doing now.

Well here's hoping there are no tragedies in Texas related to their weather after her tone deaf attempt at being funny. We get it, you REALLY don't want school closed so you don't have to babysit your child.

Where Jen is now is not the end of the story. Where she was a few years ago was not necessarily fraudulent just because she's in a challenging time now and questioning and challenging everything. Jen at 47 is not who Jen was at 37 and is not who she'll be at 57. Give her the space and time to figure it out that you'd want people to extend to you.

If any part of you feels a little happy about where she is right now because you feel justified and better about your own life, go sit with yourself in the dark for a while and tell Jesus you have f*cked it up and you'll try to do better. And then, you know, do better.

Oh honey, we are sitting in the dark on this thread. And our lower selves are thriving here.
If just one woman opens even one eyelid to this scheming false teacher or any others who look like she does, we will have done our jobs.

Who is this person? Why have I never heard of her? No. I will not google her.

She has no respect for her fans and believes she deserves their money and adulation because they’re dumb and weak while she is amazing. She doesn’t see herself as a predator but rather as someone who is inherently better than most humans and thus worthy of riches, success and fame no matter the cost to others. 

Losing Brandon messed up her self-esteem so she jumped into overcompensate mode. I’m playing armchair psychologist when I say that her overly fawning parents largely contributed to a situation where her self-esteem is so fragile that she needs a constant supply of praise to maintain it. Not being regarded as uniquely exceptional is unacceptable so if it’s convenient to hurt people in her quest for recognition, she’s justified (in her mind). 
I’m not saying she’a evil. I’m saying her core issues with self-esteem contribute to a pattern of manipulative and entitled behaviors. 

If only she had a competent therapist (likely needed at the PhD or MD level due to the complexity of treating these kinds of symptoms), she could’ve done wonders to capitalize on her divorce without sullying her public image to this extent.

Deep stuff. Wow. You make a great point about how she really views her "corn-eaters". They are dumb and weak and needy so if she can get narcissistic fuel from them while also lining her pockets it's a double win. I think that a lot of women who once followed her but and got a little close saw the rot at the core and soon left. Her real longtime friends are either sycophantic wannabes or so-conspirators in the grift. Mature women who know who they are and have a measure of confidence and self-worth are eventually repelled and are no longer her marks.

We already had one fatality from icy roads.
We aren’t diaper babies, Jen. We don’t have the infrastructure to make travel safe when there is ice accumulation. But go on about how upset you are about your Instacart delivery. If you were an actual person of character and not a tomato-faced dumpster pile you wouldn’t ask someone to be out in ice to deliver your groceries for barely livable wages.

She is such a moron-does she think it was canceled bc of the prospect of flurries or bc of the constant all day RAIN in freezing temps? She's so insensitive and who told her she's so funny? these people who "cackle" at every comment just feed a monster.

Notice how on most all of her posts she'll end it with asking people to comment. Comments increase engagement stats so she can use that to increase how much money she makes with those partnerships that she never discloses as paid ads.
