Never Enough

Description

Let’s admit it, we want to be beautiful and successful. But could these marks of being an empowered woman actually be idols requiring our slavish devotion? If you have struggled with this, you probably know the feeling that you will never be pretty or perfect enough. In Never Enough, Sarah Ivill discusses issues related to body image and performance as she shares her personal struggle with an addiction to thinness and fitness. In the process, she confronts five common lies we fall prey to and points us back to our acceptance in Christ, where we find the true solution to our pursuit of beauty and success. Five lies we are prone to believe: • My ways are better than God’s ways, and my wisdom better than His wisdom • I have to look like “her” in order to be beautiful • My worth is defined by whether or not a man loves me • My significance is based on my success as defined by our superiors • If I had what “she” has I would be more satisfied than I am now Endorsements: “Never Enough is a rich theological book that wasn’t penned from a theological ivory tower. It was written from Sarah Ivill’s heart as a life message grounded in biblical truth. Her transparency and practical insights invite women, young and not-so-young, to dismantle the world’s deceptive definition of beauty and achievement with the power of the gospel. The author leads us straight to Jesus to embrace His truth that sets us free. As women learn to replace error with truth, the chains of spiritual bondage are crushed and Christ alone defines our worth, beauty, and significance—setting us free indeed!” —Leslie Bennett, women’s ministry initiatives and leader connection blog manager, Revive Our Hearts
