Track: A Student's Guide to Body Image

by Julie Lowe

Licensed professional counselor, Julie Lowe, explains what the Bible has to say to young adults about the way we see our bodies.   We are bombarded with the idea that physical perfection is everything. The flawless people on our screens tell us how to make ourselves more beautiful; the advertising industry tells us that our value is in our attractiveness; the voice in our own head tells us that we will never be perfect.   Julie Lowe’s short, helpful guide encourages us to look to Scripture to find out where our true value and worth lie. She shows how we were created with God’s image, and how we can best use our bodies to reflect him.   Each chapter includes a summary of the main point, and reflection questions that can be used individually or in a group setting.
