Thank you for writing about who she was in whole. I’ve been sad about all the pieces that highlight the most difficult parts of her life. She contained multitudes. I’m so glad you were with her. My heart was breaking that I wasn’t.

Excellent and accurate capture of our incredible friend, Carolyn. Thank you so very much for writing truth and sharing who we knew Jennifer to be with those who never met her. To know her was to love her!

It’s been more than twenty years since I first met her as a student at Southern and found her to be one of the most gifted and intelligent women I’d ever known. But, that was only part of Jennifer. She also had the biggest heart. She learned deep compassion for the weak, vulnerable, and sufferer, through her years of pain. How she will be missed by all who knew her.

There is so much more I could share, and plan to write in a post at some point, but I’m so very thankful, dear friend, for how you’ve honored her here.

Enjoy heaven, Jennifer, we’re not far behind you! Can’t wait to have all the laughter together again!

Thank you for giving those of us who didn’t know her personally, but admired her tenacity and love for Jesus and truth from a distance, a beautiful look inside her world.

Interesting to see your post. Sad what happened due to speaking out. I am sure there are similarities with many of the victims of Sovereign Grace and C.J. Mahaney. It may be why they haven’t spoken out.
