Girl, Wash Your Face: Stop Believing the Lies About Who You Are so You Can Become Who You Were Meant to Be

Product Information

However, ultimately it doesn't work for me because a lot of the time the advice contradicts itself, the stories she shares aren't relatable and often I see her advice subtly digging at people who can't do what she can. Your dream is worth fighting for, and while you’re not in control of what life throws at you, you are in control of the fight.” There’s a lot more I could say, but putting the faith part aside, I still hated it. I cannot even deal with people who run around spewing “Love my tribe!!!! Hustle!!!!! Positive vibes!!!!” I can’t roll my eyes hard enough. She said “I run a lifestyle media company” more times than she referenced the Bible. She CONSTANTLY brags about working with A-list celebrities. I am zero percent impressed and one hundred percent annoyed. She talks about going to the Oscars and the “internet going wild” over her glammed up pictures, but she tries SO HARD, you guys, to make us believe that she’s not glam!! Sometimes she pees a little when she jumps on the trampoline because she’s had babies! Giggle!!! I could not get over the amount of shameless bragging and conceit. Through lies she's told herself, Rachel Hollis takes her readers on a journey through her triumphs and losses, heartbreaking moments and celebrations.

If we can identify the core of our struggles, while simultaneously understanding that we are truly in control of making changes, then we can utterly change our trajectory.❞ She’s funny, honest, and is okay going through life just figuring it out along the way. She seems to have found the secret sauce to maintaining a great marriage, healthy kids, and a thriving career. I enjoy her live streams with her husband and she clearly has love overflowing from her cup onto her children. Like myself, her spiritual gift is likely exhortation and she is passionate about helping women do the same thing she has - work hard and achieve their dreams. We all make judgments. What’s important is that we judge rightly. As Jesus said, ‘Judge with right judgment’ (John 7:24).Religious pluralism is basically the idea that all roads lead to God. There’s no right way or wrong way to think about God, and my religion is no better or more right than yours. This is a message Hollis shouts from the rooftops. The only problem? It’s a narrow religious assertion. It’s a belief about God that claims to trump all others. What do I mean? If you claim that all religions are equally valid and true, then you’re excluding all religions that don’t affirm that view.

She, generally, comes off as self-absorbed and with an inflated sense of the value her advice is worth. Recognizing the lies we've come to accept about ourselves is the key to growing into a better version of ourselves.❞ Even as the core of Hollis's business shifts away from being, as she puts it, “a lifestyle influencer,” this lifestyle is still largely what Hollis is selling. She wants to be relatable, and she is, to many thousands of women, in her blog posts and her speeches and her best-selling book. “I’m not an expert. I’m not a guru,” Hollis told the AP in September. “Anything I’ve ever done, the work I’ve done, has always been like your girlfriend telling you what worked for her.” Hollis is all of us — overloaded, exhausted, smiling through the long days of work, child care, meal prep, and relationship highs and lows. Only she doesn’t have to try at all. Or is she trying the hardest? PDF / EPUB File Name: Girl_Wash_Your_Face_-_Rachel_Hollis.pdf, Girl_Wash_Your_Face_-_Rachel_Hollis.epub So, Book Rachel doesn’t care what I say, but Social media Rachel says I should write a review because “it means so much” to all the people that work hard to create content? But Live Stream Rachel doesn’t care either? So, which is it? Does my review only matter if you like what I have to say? Does In Real Life Rachel read them or not? Who is Rachel Hollis really and does she care or not?

Logically, this sentiment can’t be true—because all religions contradict each other at some point. And Christianity, by nature, is exclusive. Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father but by me” (John 14:6). Religious pluralism is a dogmatic religious belief—and it contradicts Christianity. ​Lie 4: Judgment Is Bad But this is where the good news comes in. God sent his Son to live a sinless life, so that he could take the punishment of our sin on himself. He paid for it. On the cross, justice was finally done. And if we put our trust in Jesus, we can be made right with God. Does this mean that we won’t still have our struggles, or that we’ll magically have the power to never sin again? Of course not. But it does mean that we won’t have the same relationship with sin we had before. We used to be at peace with sin; now we are at peace with God, declared righteous in his sight. But there’s more. We’re not just acquitted; we’re adopted. Adopted? By God himself? That means I’m not a failure—even if I never lose the baby weight (my “baby” is 7—don’t judge). Even if I never successfully complete a diet. Even if I have a bad day and yell at my kids. Even if I never reach my financial goals or climb the ladder at my dream job. Even if my life consists of nothing more than living in quiet and humble service to the God of glory. Don’t Read This Book for Rest
