Encouragement for young girls to know their true beauty, value and purpose in a world obsessed with self-image and social media.

In today's world, youth are growing up in a society where social media is an integral part of their sense of self. But what are the repercussions of this, and how can we teach young girls where their true worth and identity is found? Jessie sets out to put the record straight and redefine how girls see themselves. Highlighting the pervasiveness of selfies, the distortion of beauty on social media, and the chase after perfectionism, she offers hope amidst the pressures of internet perfection and reaffirms our identity as God's masterpiece: original, exquisite, and of infinite value.

Jessie is the founder of Belle Ministry, an organisation who lead workshops on identity, self-image, purpose and worth within schools. She is a blogger (http://jessiefaerber.blogspot.co.uk/), a contributor to Premier Praise (where she focuses all her short thoughts on beauty and image), and has been featured in several magazines and online websites (NW Invest, Milk and Honey, Ladies Who Brunch, Valour). Jessie recently graduated from St Mellitus where she studied Theology and Youth Ministry.
