Our Bodies

What Do You See When You Look in the Mirror? 

If your first instinct is criticism, you’re not alone. Research shows that 97% of women experience at least one “I hate my body” moment every single day. But what if the mirror could show you something different? In this episode of God Hears Her, hosts Elisa Morgan and Eryn Eddy Adkins dig into one of the most personal struggles women face—body image—and bring it straight to Scripture. Together, they explore what it really means to be made in God’s image and how that truth can interrupt the negative thought patterns we’ve carried for years. This isn’t a pep talk. It’s a Bible study, and it might just change how you see yourself.
