Do we really think Jen met these two women and had this exchange?

And Canada only passed gay marriage in 2005, not 32 years ago in 1992.

She’s so full of shit!

I agree about Jen. She has such warmth about her and was a great story teller. She also seemed much more humble and self-aware. I recall she had friends then too, but there wasn't this obsessive need to brag about all her friends and post girlie photos like a middle school girl who wants you to know she's popular.

In her earlier books, she wrote about her friends being very supportive to her in various, normal ways, and how they would band together and pool resources to help folks in their community, like single moms who were quietly having food insecurity or general needs, like dishes, etc. No fanfare, but just friends doing good work in the name of Jesus. Even her anecdotes about Tray and his pager were actually funny. But these were Interrupted and 7 stories- so I wonder if she changed editors after them?
What bits I read of subsequent books were just family stories and increasing braggy content, without much warmth or relatability or much of a point, really.

Except even that was BS. I posted this before but I had an ANC Meal Train when my family really needed support and surprise surprise I was ghosted by Jen. No call, no sorry I forgot. Nothing. She signed up because it looked good and left us high and dry.

She had no problem dropping her kids with any of us at any time or taking our tithes and our book sales.

After the whole affirming LGBT incident at church they even had the congregation (what was left) hand make them greeting cards because their lives were so hard.

If I read this forum because I’m still mad it’s because I am.

Also, I don’t remember her plugging Beth Moore’s book. In fact, I thought it was the opposite, that she didn’t plug it while everyone else in her circle did. Let me know if I’m wrong on that. I’m not sure how she’s going to write an entire book without making herself the victim in every single scenario.
