Ep. 6.8 : Body image and biblical truth with Rachael Gilbert

Body image is a topic that has major implications in our lives, yet we tend to avoid talking about it because it’s so personal and oftentimes sensitive.

I’m so thankful my friend Rachael Gilbert is bravely speaking into these body image issues through her new book, Image Restored. She addresses our most common body image pitfalls and, as a licensed counselor and mom, comes at it both professionally and practically.

Here’s a few of the topics we cover:

• Signs we’re dealing with body image concerns that need addressing

• Core beliefs impacting our body image

• Ways to reframe our body image biblically

• Current health trends that are red flags for healthy body image

• Parenting healthy body image with our kids

I hope you’ll take a few minutes to listen to this important conversation today. I also pray each of us will ask the Lord to reveal the places in our lives where we need to reframe our attitudes towards our bodies, not only for our own benefit but also for our families.
