ALLIE ANDERSON is a credentialed private investigator that oversees the research arm of SkyWatch TV and Defender Publishing.
Her exploratory works have appeared in numerous books, documentaries, magazines, and television specials. Her contributions to the book Timebomb (with Joe Ardis Horn) led to fact-finding discoveries involving GMOs, harmful chemicals in processed foods, and how consumers can avoid their detriments.
Her new book, Unscrambling the Millennial Paradox, probes deeply into the issues of modern society’s young adult population, revealing the shocking reasons that they are leaving the church, why some of their elders have deemed them the “Unreachable” generation, and why this upcoming collective just could lead the next Great Awakening.
