About

Let's redefine beauty for our world!

What is beautiful? We spend our money on beauty products, weight-loss programs, and age-defying medical interventions to attain beauty. We set impossible standards and feel bad about ourselves when we don't reach them. Is beauty truly that elusive? Or could it be that our idea of what's beautiful is simply too narrow?

Through engaging personal stories and dramatic before-and-after photography, filmmaker Rebecca Friedlander uncovers the true beauty of twelve women from around the world, empowering us to shatter the lies of rejection, doubt, and low self-esteem. Utilizing compelling biblical truth and questions for personal reflection, Friedlander helps us identify our own personal battlegrounds, celebrate our uniqueness, and embrace God's definition of beautiful.

"If you are like me, you love to be given a front-row seat, a backstage pass, or that red-carpet invitation! I had the honor of seeing this book, and the TV series that inspired it, blossom from a seed to an amazing, beautiful adventure because its very talented creator, Rebecca, took a few weeks in her travels to edit and do a few photo shoots from my home. Not only did Rebecca find beauty all over the world, she teamed with God to create beauty wherever she traveled! This book will create beauty in your life and will give you the tips and tools to paint a path of beauty wherever you travel too!"

Pam Farrel, bestselling author of Men Are Like Waffles--Women Are Like Spaghetti and 7 Simple Skills for Every Woman

"Finding Beautiful is a wonderful book full of intriguing stories that reveal the miracle of the Father's love for His daughters.

"From California to Paris, Rebecca Friedlander has searched for stories of true beauty. Not stories of glitz and glamour but stories of women who know their identity in Christ and have let their beauty overflow to those around them. Pick up this book to redefine your own beauty and learn how to share it with others."

"Transformation is God's idea. But Rebecca Friedlander has shown with clarity that the will to change is ours alone. With before-and-after pictures that speak a thousand words, compelling testimonies, and thought-provoking questions that will ignite your own transformation, Finding Beautiful is unlike any other book I've ever seen. Can I be next? Will you?"
