In a culture that idolizes perfection in outer beauty, it's time for us girls to take a stand for True Beauty. Therefore, I am asking you to join me and other girls around the world by taking the "True Beauty Challenge."
Three Steps in the True Beauty Challenge...
Step #1: Take Action
It's time to take action. As part of the "True Beauty Challenge," I am asking you to consider all of the money you normally spend on your outer beauty each month. Then, find something that would cost you about $30 for the month...it could be a manicure, haircut, new outfit, make-up, new pair of shoes, etc.
Now, here's the challenge: For one month, go without that manicure or give up a new outfit and instead spend that money to help someone get their basic needs provided. I am encouraging you to use your money to provide clean water for people in Africa through the Living Water International.
Did you know that just $1 can provide one girl your age clean water for one year? Wow! And by giving up something that costs you $30, you can provide 30 girls with clean water for one year. Talk about true beauty! You've probably heard that drinking more water can help your skin and your natural beauty. Well, it also sustains all of life! Without clean water, people are dying from preventable diseases everyday. And you can make a difference!
Let's say you realize you could go without that extra $30/month for one year? In that case, I would encourage you to take that money you spend on your outer beauty and sponsor a girl in another country through Compassion. My husband and I have sponsored children with Compassion for years. Not only do you help provide clean water for her, but also food, education and basic health care. On top of that, you develop a relationship with her by writing letters back and forth and she learns about Jesus through the Compassion program. Wow.
You can be part of something much bigger than yourself. Will you take the plunge and join in the "True Beauty Challenge" for one month or one year?
If so, let us know by signing up for the "True Beauty Challenge" here and get a free audio MP3.
Step #2: Display Your True Beauty
Take a stand and display your true beauty with one of our custom designed t-shirts. Then, when people ask you about it, share with them what you've learned on this website and encourage them to come check it out for themselves! You never know whose life you could impact by displaying your true beauty! Get your shirt, button, mug or bag today by clicking the links below.
In a World that Idolizes Outer Beauty... Display Your True Beauty!
Finally, it's time to apply what you’re learning about true beauty to your life. It takes time to find your true beauty, especially when the media and your friends pressure you to focus on and idolize your outer beauty. Therefore, I am asking you to commit to reading my book about true beauty, "Mirror Mirror...Am I Beautiful?" and use the free bible study guide to learn what true beauty is all about and apply it to your life. I'd recommend finding some other girls to go through the book together, that way you can hold each other accountable and support each other as you find your true beauty.
**Note** If you don't have the money for the book, don't let that stop you! You can download the PDF version for free when you sign up for my newsletter. So you really have no excuse! Sign up for Shelley's newsletter here
