Beautiful Lies by Jennifer Strickland
When women and girls look to men, mirrors, magazines, movie stars, and media for a picture of their value, they see a grossly distorted reflection of who they are. The author tells the truth: when women turn away from these mirrors of the world and look into the never-changing mirror of the Word, their beauty, and identity become crystal clear.
"Every woman should know that she is loved and valued simply for being who she isIn Beautiful Lies Jennifer reveals the lies that so many women believe. She tells her story honestly and compellingly and then offers practical hope for all of us as we seek to live a life of meaning. This book will help everyone who reads it!" -Holly Wagner, author and founder of GodChicks and Survival Guide for Young Women "Beautiful Lies is a book every woman should read. Jennifer Strickland weaves the powerful story of her life throughout each chapter while emphasizing transformational truths from God's Word. Her vulnerability, exquisite writing style, and practical take-home applications make this book the ideal choice for personal or for small group use." -Carol Kent, speaker and author of Becoming a Woman of Influence "Jennifer Strickland's story is absolutely compelling. It reads like a novel but it is real life. There isn't a young girl or woman in the universe who would not be enthralled with this message. As a beautiful young model, Jennifer found emptiness and deep sorrowful pain. Yet today she is a wonderful wife and mother who has found true beauty, hope, and restoration. It's a message for this generation." -Jim Burns, PhD, President of HomeWord and author of Confident Parenting and Teenology "This is not another 'how to' book. This is a personal journey shared by Jennifer. She opens her heart and exposes the pain she experienced while being a successful model. Jennifer puts her modeling experiences on paper in a beautiful, descriptive way. I too went through these same feelings of rejection and being treated like an object and not a person. Sometimes we have to go on an emotional roller coaster to find true love. Come share Jennifer's journey as she discovers what beauty really is. This book will help you to identify the lies and deceptions of the world and help you find the true meaning of beauty, acceptance and love." -Kim Alexis, spokesperson and author, former Cosmopolitan and Sports Illustrated cover girl "There is a spiritual battle for the minds and hearts of women. It's real and it's raw and it's destroying lives. With transparency and authenticity Jennifer uncovers lies, deception, and distractions that keep women searching for something that will never satisfy. This book is a message of healing truth, spiritual realities, love, and freedom that every woman longs for. Jennifer tackles the tough struggles and issues that women have learned to hide and helps us find hope in our true identity and purpose." -Debbie Stuart, Church and Leadership Development Director, Women of Faith "I am a big believer that destructive lies are rooted out only by truth. As an eyewitness to the sinister power of lies in the lives of those God loves, Jennifer Strickland offers good news to girls and women who have believed the lie that they're not worth much. Beautiful Lies is food for those who hunger for that which really satisfies." -Margot Starbuck, author of Unsqueezed "Beautiful Lies captivated my heart in so many ways! The stories of Jennifer's life brought me from a place of clinging to a place of surrendering. Jennifer reminded me of a better way to live-to move from being a victim who lives in fear to loving myself through God's eyes and living in freedom! If every parent read this book, they would know how to bless their daughters. If every woman read this book, we could move from living in isolation to living in true community." -Pat Cimo, Family Life Director, Willow Creek Church "Beautiful Lies is a must-read for women today. We are lured and seduced to the lies of magazines in stores, our image in a mirror, and the approval of men-only to leave us haunted by what-ifs. Beautiful Lies is a true story of Jen's authentic journey and insight into the traps of the world and the redeeming love and healing that can only come from God, the creator of beauty and our true identity." -Debbie Eaton, Director of Women's Ministry, Saddleback Church
