<p/><br></br><p><b> About the Book </b></p></br></br>Christians love the idea that self-expression is the essence of a beautiful person, but that's a lie. Rachel Jankovic discusses identity, fake self-care, best self, and the Gospel in this confident and practical new book for Christian women.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>If "Who am I?" is the question you're asking, Rachel Jankovic doesn't want you to "find yourself" or "follow your heart."</em></p><p>Those lies are nothing to the confidence, freedom, and clarity of purpose that come with knowing what is actually essential about you. And the answer to that question is at once less and more than what you are hoping for.</p><p>Christians love the idea that self-expression is the essence of a beautiful person, but that's a lie, too. With trademark humor and no nonsense practicality, Rachel Jankovic explains the fake story of the Self, starting with the inventions of a supremely ugly man named Sartre (rhymes with "blart"). And we--men and women, young and old--have bought his lie of the Best Self, with terrible results.</p><p>Thankfully, that's not the end of our story, <em>You Who: Why You Matter and How to Deal with It</em> takes the identity question into the nitty gritty details of everyday life. Here's the first clue: Stop looking inside, and start planting flags of everyday faithfulness. In Christianity, the self is always a tool and never a destination.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>"Are you a person? Do you breathe? If you answered yes to either of these questions, you should read this book as quickly as you can get your hands on it. Reading this book was like being given a cup of cold water on a hot day." Summer Jaeger, Sheologians Blog & Podcast</p><p>"Rachel's contention is that we have no practical idea of what makes us who we are, because we have absorbed too much of the world and its philosophies. As we grow up we adopt titles of identities that have either been thrust on us or that we take on ourselves. "Carefree grrrrl", or "The Fashionista" or "The Nerd" might satisfy for the moment, but they are a lie." The End Time blog</p><br>
