Welcome to the Word and Story Podcast! In this episode, we explore a case-study, where Bethany, a 34-year-old woman who struggles with body image, illustrates the pressures many face today. Despite professing faith, Bethany feels her self-worth is tethered to her appearance, demonstrating the challenges posed by societal standards and personal expectations. Listen in as Chandler and Meg explain a biblical anthropology and talk about how to help Bethany apply the principles found therein.
