starving the fairy tale

by Emily Copeland

The purpose of Starving the Fairytale is to illuminate the empty messaging about “self” that is drawing Christian and non-Christian women into a dead-end journey of self-discovery and to hold it against the Light of truth to help them fully follow Jesus. The reader will explore relatable life experiences that are impacted by the message of “self-love” in today’s culture. The “fairytale” that the New-Age self-discovery journey promises is exposed along with the nuanced messaging that exists to lead women into confusion about the truth of Jesus and the “truth” of the world around them. The hollow journey of self will be unveiled as it begins subtly with self-care, leading to self-discovery, self-love, self-acceptance, self-reliance, and ultimately to self as god. And where will it land? With the Message that delivers; the Gospel, explaining salvation FROM self and to the “new” woman in Christ that they have been journeying to find all along.

A wonderful book on why it is so important to die to self and live for God! Self-worth is found only through & in Jesus, not by the practices of the world! Something this world needs to be reminded of (myself included) every single day!!

A great book reminding us to stop searching for love and peace in ourselves or the world but in the only one who can offer it, Jesus.
