Publisher's Description
Everyone knows that we live in a “skin-is-in” society, heavily driven by media and immodesty. So how does a young Christian woman reconcile a fashionable wardrobe with maintaining her integrity? Written by international professional model Rachel Lee Carter, Fashioned by Faith offers a cutting-edge approach to the concept of beauty with a Biblical foundation that will attract moms and daughters alike. Readers will love hearing about Carter’s exciting story as she leads them on an engaging study that touches on a huge felt need for young women: real beauty has nothing to do with looks. Offering three valuable perspectives—teen boys, a professional model, and God’s Word—Carter explains her standards of modesty in a way that will make readers acquire a specific understanding of the author’s wardrobe choices and the impact those choices can make on others. Readers will also learn to season their self-image with daily quiet time with God. A tour of Scripture will reveal the value of heart issues like modesty and why they’re important to God. Never compromising her sense of style or her faith, every young lady can discover what it means to be Fashioned by Faith. Moms and girls will love this book!

“I am extremely impressed with Fashioned by Faith. Rachel has done an outstanding job relating to young girls while proving her points with strong Bible references and verses. I work with young ladies every day at my dance studio, and it is amazing what they will say or wear without a second thought. I have already encouraged my dancers to get a copy of this book. I am proud to say that Rachel did it—a positive spin on fashion from a model who is a Christian. Hallelujah!”
“In her new book, Fashioned by Faith, Rachel Lee Carter has beautifully blended elements of purity and loveliness without condescending attitudes or impossible expectations. God’s Word for women and girls of all ages stands the test of time, and this book proves that once and for all.”
“It was evident to me from the first time we met, that Rachel had a deep spirital core. As a makeup artist in the fashion industry, it has been a pleasure working with someone whose inner light and beauty touches those around her. Fashioned by Faith will be a blessing to all who read it.”
“It’s not everyday that you find modesty in the fashion industry but somehow Rachel pulls it off in her career and in her book, Fashioned by Faith. Modesty seems to be a lost virtue in most homes and churches today and most girls don’t realize that a real and godly man looks for that virtue in a future spouse. It’s refreshing to know there are roll models still in this business for young women to look up to and aspire to be like.”
“As a youth pastor and father of two daughters, I am well acquainted with how the current culture has corrupted our view of beauty. I am excited about this book and what it will do to change the way young ladies think about how they dress. Rachel has drawn on her years of experience in the modeling industry and her biblical training at Word of Life to address this subject in a fresh new way. I highly recommend this book to young ladies, parents and student groups. It is a must read!”
“In Fashioned by Faith, Rachel shares her experience, struggles and real-world issues. Readers will be able to associate with many of them. Yet it is evident that her strong faith in God has strengthened and sustained her throughout her modeling career and life. I have had the great pleasure to know and model with Rachel for over 20 years. Her love for God radiates to everyone she meets.”
“We desperately need to share God’s vision on modesty to our young ladies’ and this book is the perfect tool to use along with your Bible to get them engaged in conversation and personal discovery in God’s Word.”
