LONGWOOD, FL-Author Tammy Grace reveals her heart for helping young girls realize their worth in Christ in her book Eyes Wide Open: Knowing and Believing God's Word in Identifying Your Beauty (paperback, 978-1-60266-942-0). She uses the experiences of her past, both negative and positive, to encourage, teach, and support teen girls. Because of her love for them, Grace reaches out and shares in their lives, asking tough questions and giving honest answers.
A facilitator-led Bible study, Eyes Wide Open offers students and leaders a fresh outlook and a sense of God's love and adoration for them. Too many women think the body God blessed them with is flawed, awkward, or just not acceptable. After discovering what God says about their beauty, they will be equipped to resist the secular views in the world that have overshadowed the true meaning of beauty.
The author believes God can use this study to bring the truth of beauty to women of all ages. She speaks from her own experience of problems with self-esteem for more than 20 years. God's Word alone restored her, she says. The study encourages readers to search for and apply Scripture to their circumstances. The focus on daily prayer and the many opportunities for reflection help foster their personal relationship with Jesus.
Tammy Grace is a motivational speaker in central Ohio who left a successful career in banking to spend more time with her husband and three children.
