Most of us have a complicated relationship with what we see in the mirror. 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 in God’s image, designed to worship Him. This truth transforms our primary concern and directs us to a better question: how can we best use our bodies to honour Him?
