Every day we are exposed to messages about health, food, exercise and looking good. It's hard not to get swept along with it all; in fact, it’s easy to end up caring too much about these things and even to feel trapped trying to live up to the ideals that we see in the media. 

Author Stacy Reaoch points you to the Bible to find freedom! The Bible tells us that our physical selves do matter. But it also invites us to think about our bodies in a God-centred way—helping us to reset and find a balanced approach that is grounded in our faith.

Beautiful Freedom is an invitation to love the body God gave you and to explore his priorities for the ways in which you live, eat and exercise. 

This book will help you find freedom from damaging narratives about weight, fitness, appearance and ageing. Even better, it will turn your gaze towards Jesus and help you love him more and more.

Reflection questions at the end of each chapter are useful both for personal reflection and group study.

A must read!

The author shows us how we can break free from the idol of being a fitness fanatic or a food-binger. She tells us how we can honour God with our bodies without being trapped by idolatry or fear. She gives us practical tips on learning to say no to the extra bit of cake because we feel sad, or to say no to the fear of gaining an extra pound. Ultimately, she shows us to think about food, fitness and beauty in a Jesus-centered way. I found this book immensely helpful, gentle and practical in thinking about a difficult issue. It would be an excellent book to do in a book group, with helpful discussion questions at the end of each chapter. There is also an extra chapter at the end helping the reader to think through whether their issue with food has become an eating disorder and how to go about getting help if it has. I will be sure to reread this with my teenage daughter!
