In a world obsessed with image and social media, it can be easy to lose sight of who we really are - loved by God.

In this timely book for young women on navigating the pressures of adulthood, Rachel Gardner challenges you to live boldly from the standpoint of being beloved, rather than striving to live up to the world’s impossible standards.

With warmth, humour and honesty about her own struggles, she tackles a range of important topics, from beauty to career choices to relationships, using women from the bible as examples of those whose faith took courage.

With plenty of prompts for personal reflection, this book is an essential resource for any young woman seeking to grow in their identity in God.
Rachel is the best selling author of The Sex Thing (SPCK, 2021) and The Girl De-Construction Project (Hodder, 2018). She is part of the team at Youthscape and is also President of the Girls Brigade England and Wales. Rachel is a keen advocate for young people. She and her family are based up in Blackburn, where they lead an intergenerational church plant.

An honest, inspiring and powerful read. We wholeheartedly recommend this to every young woman on an adventure following Jesus. Buy it, read it, live it!

- Gavin Calver, Director of Mission at the Evangelical Alliance, and Anne Calver, Associate Minister at King's Community Church, Oldbury

Beloved' will change the way you view yourself, your future and your relationship with God. It's easy to read and so full of honest, thought-provoking wisdom. I could not put it down out of hunger to learn more about what it means to be a woman of God and how to live it out in a practical way. Rachel uncovers a new side to topics I thought I knew. An inspirational and totally transforming read.

- Meg Cannon, founder of koko (thekokostory.com), a website aiming to encourage and inspire teenage girls

I can't shout loudly enough about this book! Pick it up and digest the words of hope, encouragement and challenge. This is one of those books that you'll want to highlight big chunks of and go back to over and over again!
