Truth about where we find our value in a world full of self absorbed philosophies. We don't need to love ourselves more... we need to love and know God more deeply. In that is where we find our purpose in this life. ( ) Rather than encouraging self love, this book promotes the manatra "Let Go and Let God" and where this makes perfect sense to any Christian, at the same time I'm thinking to myself "Well, I'd like to think I have a little control of my life". It's nice to know that you shouldn't expect perfection from yourself because God doesn't and loves you just the way he made you. The problem is when that little voice in your head tells you "You're not good enough" because when you hear that enough from other people, you start to believe it. It made no sense to me when the book said you don't have to get rid of toxic people in your life, because from my personal experience, really you do. This book also covered several sins that are considered acceptable to society, abortion, gender identity, racial superiority, and tore all these topics to shreds. The author described in great detail why these should still not be acceptable, because they are sinful and not the way God intended. I think more people need to read this book for that very reason because we are really losing touch with reality and each other, especially this year of 2020. Overall, this book was okay, just a different approach to the self help books I typically read. Did it make me feel better? Some, but most of us like to feel like we are at least a little bit in control of our overall happiness. Thank you NetGalley and the publisher for allowing me to review another book. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione

Nonfiction.
HTML:From one of the sharpest Christian voices of her generation and host of the podcast Relatable comes a framework for escaping our culture of trendy narcissism—and embracing God instead. We're told that the key to happiness is self-love. Instagram influencers, mommy bloggers, self-help gurus, and even Christian teachers promise that if we learn to love ourselves, we'll be successful, secure, and complete. But the promise doesn't deliver. Instead of feeling fulfilled, our pursuit of self-love traps us in an exhausting cycle: as we strive for self-acceptance, we become addicted to self-improvement. The truth is we can't find satisfaction inside ourselves because we are the problem. We struggle with feelings of inadequacy because we are inadequate. Alone, we are not good enough, smart enough, or beautiful enough. We're not enough—period. And that's okay, because God is. The answer to our insufficiency and insecurity isn't self-love, but God's love. In Jesus, we're offered a way out of our toxic culture of self-love and into a joyful life of relying on him for wisdom, satisfaction, and purpose. We don't have to wonder what it's all about anymore. This is it. This book isn't about battling your not-enoughness; it's about embracing it. Allie Beth Stuckey, a Christian, conservative new mom, found herself at the dead end of self-love, and she wants to help you combat the false teachings and self-destructive mindsets that got her there. In this book, she uncovers the myths popularized by our self-obsessed culture, reveals where they manifest in politics and the church, and dismantles them with biblical truth and practical wisdom.
