Coffee and Bible Time Podcast Cultivating Inner Beauty in An Appearance-Obsessed World | Ashleigh Brophy
In today’s culture, appearance matters more than ever. From social media to fashion to aging, Christian women are constantly told what to look like, what to buy, and who to become. But what does Scripture actually say about beauty — and how does our identity in Christ reshape the way we see ourselves?
In this episode, Ellen talks with Ashleigh Brophy, creative director of Preserve Magazine, about:
• How to break free from cultural beauty standards
• What identity in Christ means for everyday confidence and worth
• How creativity, motherhood, and calling flow from a secure foundation in Christ
• How to renew your mind about appearance and comparison
• Why biblical beauty begins with rest in your identity in Christ, not striving
True beauty isn’t something you achieve — it’s something that flows from a heart anchored in your identity in Christ.
