This inspiring read from author and speaker, Elizabeth Oates, is written for women who have struggled with self-worth and self-esteem. Whether you've grown up in a dysfunctional family or simply have bought into the lies sold by today's media, If You Could See as Jesus Sees promises hope. . .joy. . .a life of purpose. . .and more, while offering you a brand-new look at just who your Savior created you to be in this world. As you begin to see yourself through the lens of the Master Creator--through His lens of beauty, love, forgiveness, and mercy--you will begin to feel differently about yourself. A true life-changer!

Most people know Elizabeth Oates as the poster child for women who grew up as a product of dysfunctional families . . . a typical Generation X kid. Her family tree was plagued with generations of divorce, addiction, abuse, abandonment, and general brokenness. Yet, over the years, God taught her that she is more than her deep roots . . . she is a child of the King.

Elizabeth overcame her past and earned her undergraduate degree from Baylor University and her M.A. in Christian Education with a focus in Marriage and Family Studies from Dallas Theological Seminary. She has authored two books, including Dealing with Divorce: Finding Direction When Your Parents Split Up (Zondervan) and If You Could See as Jesus Sees: Inspiration For a Life of Hope, Joy, and Purpose (Barbour). All that sounds fancy, but Elizabeth knows God doesn’t care about achievement . . . He cares about calling, and He has called her to share a message of hope, healing, and restoration.

Today Elizabeth lives in the suburbs of Waco, Texas with her husband, Brandon, and their four loud children, including three biological and one they adopted through foster care. Her life sounds embarrassingly cliché, yet Elizabeth knows no matter how perfect our Instagram posts, no matter how Pinterest-worthy our homes, no matter how well manicured our lawns—we all need Jesus.

In her “spare” time Elizabeth loves catching a date night with the hubs, eating ice cream, teaching yoga (to offset the ice cream), reading, spending time with friends who don’t let her get away with anything, and cheering on her kids as they play a variety of sports.
