WHAT THEY’RE SAYING
Holley Gerth
Wall Street Journal–bestselling author of What Your Mind Needs for Anxious Moments
“Every woman has struggled with body image issues, but not every woman has a wise, insightful, encouraging, and authentic guide to help. That’s exactly what you’ll get through Rachael Gilbert on these pages. Her words are an echo of the heart of the Creator, who deeply loves and intentionally designed every part of you.”
Alisa Keeton
Founder of Revelation Wellness®; author of The Wellness Revelation and Heir To the Crown
“The church needs more books like this that teach us how to live out our faith as human beings with a body – an embodied faith. According to the book of James, faith without action is no faith at all. Wouldn’t it be just like the enemy of our joy and freedom to keep us stuck in a cycle of obsessing and neglecting our bodies, never free to glorify God with our bodies? This book will help you break free from that fruitless cycle. Rachel doesn’t just talk to you about your body image but works with you until how you see your body mirrors how God sees you. By the time you finish this book and do this book, your body home will be built on The Rock. This way, the next time a trending fitness fad or food rule rolls into town, you stay free!”
Michelle Myers
cofounder of She Works His Way and author of the Conversational Commentary series
“Body image struggles are so much more than a body issue—and finally, there’s a book that tells the whole story. Inside these pages, Rachael pulls from her love for the Lord, her training as a counselor, and being a woman who has been there to weave together a beautiful combination of God’s truth, personal reflection, and practical application. If you struggle to see yourself how God sees you, this is the conversation for you.”
Dr. Jon Chasteen
“I’m so glad you picked up this book. I doubt if you’ve read a more transparent and unfiltered book that is sure to change the way you think. From the very first pages, my longtime friend Rachael Gilbert wastes no time reading your mail and challenging your thinking. If you need your image restored, this spiritually accurate yet profoundly practical book will give you a perfect blueprint to construct a healthy picture of who you are in Christ. What are you waiting for? Start reading it today!”
Dr. Linda Hoover

“A must-read for anyone struggling with body image or identity. Rachael artfully brings together personal experience, clinical expertise, and spiritual truths for a winning combination. Her honest stories welcome the reader through healing’s open door. She provides the practical guidance of a professional counselor’s voice and the gentle invitation to measure beliefs against the plumbline of God’s Word.

Dr. Mary Dainty

“If perfectionism has ever influenced your self-image, this book offers relief and hope.

She captures the nuances of self-awareness and recovery while providing a road map for healing the soul. Rachael’s skilled and informative approach as a licensed mental health professional offers a safe place for finding healing.”
Dr. Amy O’Hana
PhD, licensed professional counselor and author of Beyond Burnout
“For the Christian woman struggling with body shame, author Rachael Gilbert has a message of freedom for you: Your body is good. In a creative integration of spiritual and psychological principles, Rachael shares the hard stories—the real stories—that convince you of this truth. Image RESTored will positively change your relationship with your body—and yourself—and the God who beautifully designed it.”

Dannah Gresh

“Rachael has written a delightful guide for every Christian woman who wants to finally replace the lies she believes about her body with truth from God’s Word. She writes like a friend who is cheering you on. But make no mistake— you’re reading well-researched wisdom from a counselor who is trained to help you!”
Ashley Willis

“Image RESTored offers readers an incredibly clear and thorough blueprint for overcoming body image issues.

This resource is chock-full of real-life stories, therapeutic insights, practical tips, applicable Scripture, and so much more.
