Beautiful Lies - Strickland
Former professional model Jennifer Strickland unveils the lies women believe and teaches the truth of who we are in God's eyes.
Do you ever look in the mirror and hate what you see?
Have the opinions of others stolen your worth?
Are there hidden hurts in your heart that say "I'll never measure up?"
Jennifer Strickland knows all too well how you feel. Fifteen years in the beauty business left her broken, ashamed, and grappling for her value. Feeling like she could never measure up to the impossible standards placed on her, she sought affirmation from men, mirrors, and the media -- hoping that if she could just be good enough in their eyes, she would be accepted.
But no matter what she did to measure up, she always fell short. Jennifer cried out to a God she did not know, and He taught her the story of women all over the world -- that we are more than what men think, more than the mirror reflects, and more than the images we see in the media. We are cherished, beloved, precious creations of God and reflections of Him in a world who desperately needs to know what real beauty looks like.
In Beautiful Lies, you will:
- Identify the lies you believe that distort your value
- Discover the beauty God sees when He sees you
- Turn away from men, mirrors, and media for your worth

With compelling honesty, Jennifer draws upon her experiences as a model for Giorgio Armani, Vogue, and Cosmopolitan to pull back the veil on the lies women believe and point them towards their real worth in God's eyes. With an M.A. in Writing and Literature and an emphasis in Biblical Studies, Jennifer Strickland is the author of Girl Perfect, More Beautiful Than You Know, and 21 Myths (Even Good) Girls Believe About Sex. She has impacted tens of thousands of women around the world with her amazing ability to bring the Bible to life and tell stories that compel her readers to take a fresh look at who we are in God's eyes.
