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.

I wanted to love this book, I really did. The premise of the book is that you will never be "enough" because the worldly concept of self and purpose is intrinsically flawed and our identity and purpose are found in God. In reality the boom essentially said, try harder to be a better Christian so that you don't need a worldly concept of self & by the way anything that I (the author) think is worldly (read liberal) is worthless and purposeless. She completely fails to not any nuance or merit to the things she thinks are worldly (again, read liberal) while presuming to have figured out how to live with her worth in God. The book is HEAVILY biased toward white conservative/right-wing Christianity. Between the chapter on social justice that completely dismisses any non-church-based justice work and the chapter that says that if you're a woman & married that you need to have babies this book was a waste of the 2 hours it took me to listen to it (2x speed is my friend). I should have given up on it sooner, but I kept hoping it would get better because I wanted to like it.

Good premise, bad/heavily biased author
