Ask the Christian Counselor Struggling with Body Image

Struggling with Body Image helps readers reject the world’s distorted messages and embrace a biblical vision of the body as valuable to God. Lainey Greer helps readers to see what God sees when he looks at us and gives a biblical basis for caring for our bodies without negativity or obsession. Everyone has a body image, and whether from society’s influence or age-related changes, most people battle a negative one. In a world with confusing messages about the body and social media’s promotion of unattainable standards for thinness or muscularity, it’s difficult to think well about our bodies. Greer, a counselor and fitness trainer with a firsthand understanding of body image struggles, helps readers reject negative messages and embrace a biblical vision for thinking about our bodies. Because our bodies matter to God, it’s important that his Word, not the world we live in, informs how we view our physical selves. Struggling with Body Image helps believers develop a biblical understanding of the body that is foundational for a God-honoring body image. Struggling with Body Image offers practical biblical help for building a positive body image based on God's Word instead of the world we live in. It is part of the Ask the Christian Counselor series, which walks readers through their deepest and most profound questions.
