My Big Bottom Blessing was a delight! Written with candor, Teasi Cannon has invited her readers into her head, her life, and her struggles with her weight. I laughed, I cried, I shared pieces of Teasi’s story with others as I read through her book. Well written and easy to read, My Big Bottom Blessing is an easy winner!
Any woman who has ever struggled with self-image should read this book. If you’ve ever struggled with thoughts like I’m fat, My nose is too big, My ears stick out, My eyes are too small, My feet are too wide, My toes are crooked, My hair is too curly/too straight/too thick/too fine, you should read this book. Teasi tackles the lies behind those beliefs, the feelings produced by believing those lies, and the behaviors that follow the feelings. She also shares the truth of what Scripture says about you, how God feels about you, and how you can adjust your feelings and behavior to match His truth.
With questions at the end of each chapter to help you think about your own struggles, the lies you believe about yourself, and God’s truth about your worth, this book is entertaining and inspiring, challenging and honest, helpful and freeing. If you feel trapped inside your flawed self, let Teasi Cannon show you the way to God’s victorious freedom! Because you are fearfully and wonderfully made!

ReplyDeleteI would love to win this book.
ReplyDeleteI also want to say that I have dealt with bad self image all of my life. I struggle with how I look and how GOD can love me and how he created me. If I don't win a copy I will definitely read this to help me with my own issues. Thank you
ReplyDeleteBrenda, I finally got around to reading one of your blogs. Way to go, girl!! I don't know of a single woman that hasn't struggled with her self image at some point in her life. But our God IS an awesome God....he is faithful in all things, to heal and renew! So good to catch up with you by e-mail recently!!!
ReplyDeleteBrenda, I didn't know you posted blogs. I enjoyed reading about your daughter praying for the neighbor. Several times I have watched select young children & I understand why we should approach God as children do. On the subject of this book. I have heard others say that God created us w/ a purpose, so we should accept ourselves the way we are, but it is a challenge. Thanks for the thought-provoking comments.
ReplyDeleteMy friend Lorraine wasn't able to post a comment for some reason, so I'm posting for her. :) She says, "I have struggled with self image issues for a long time. It sounds like winning and reading this book might help me see myself the way God sees me."
ReplyDeleteI've read and enjoyed this book as well (so you don't have to enter me in the drawing). Great review of a fabulous book! It’s been said that real change happens when we become aware of the negative self-talk in our heads, and replace it with positive messages. This book takes it a step further. Rather than just “thinking positive,” Teasi became deeply aware of God’s love for her. Knowing she was God’s beloved made it possible for her to love herself. I know all women, regardless of size, will appreciate Teasi Cannon's honesty!
