Jennifer Dukes Lee is an award winning journalist covering stories about crime, politics, and natural disasters. Now, she uses her skills as a journalist to tell the biggest story ever: the redemptive story of Christ.
Her first book Love Idol addresses the need we all feel to be valued, to be respected. To be loved. Yet this yearning too often turns into an idol of one of God’s most precious gifts: love itself. If you, like so many of us, spend your time and energy trying to earn someone’s approval—at work, home, and church—all the while fearing that, at any moment, the facade will drop and everyone will see your hidden mess . . . then love may have become an idol in your life.
Love Idol will help you dismantle what’s separating you from true connection with God and rediscover the astonishing freedom of a life lived in authentic love.
Her latest book, Happiness Dare. In this book, Jennifer has good news for anyone who’s ever secretly, longingly (even guiltily) dreamed of being happier: It’s okay to want to be happy. God cares about your happiness; He created it as a sweet spot, a gift, and something you can faithfully, freely pursue. And He’s daring you to trust Him enough to discover it.
Listen to the podcast to find out what tried to rob her of her happiness in the middle of writing her second book and what helped her find her happy place again.

What a great way to put a ribbon on my experience of reading Jennifer’s book! I SO loved her words today on being a doer and keeping that feeling of accomplishment in balance with all the other important things in life.
Michelle, you are so sweet to say this. I’m glad you are enjoying Jennifer’s book and podcast.
