[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think Jen was never really about evangelizing a Christian Gospel though.  It was just what she knew growing up and what was right in front of her.  She saw and opportunity and seized it.  Once she outgrew that she pivoted to what she thought would be wider, more secular opportunities.  She basically destroyed her old audience in the hopes of finding a bigger, newer one.  It really didn't work out to well, though, as she's not nearly as successful anymore with her books, speaking tours, no TV show, all of it.  The secular woke audience is fickle and moves on to newer, brighter things.  Her old conservative and Christian audience was more loyal and steadfast.  She's now just reaping what she sowed several years ago.[/quote]

YESSSS! I’ve thought this for years now! She chased fame in the bubble she knew at the time (evangelical world) but at some point, being famous in the Christian world wasn’t enough anymore. She wanted mainstream FAME. So she went looking for ways to grab a wider (secular) audience - “edgy” social media posts and public stances on issues that she knew would push buttons. And for about 5 minutes she almost had what she wanted, but things quickly began to spiral downhill. And now she’s completely alienated her original fan base, and the rest of her world couldn’t give a crap what she says. The grass is never greener. [/quote]
