Background Knowledge:
From whatever perspective we choose to look, it is clear that fashion plays a tremendous role in modern society, controlling and governing human masses. With this reality taking place, it is only natural to wonder where the Lord Jesus Christ, the Author and the Finisher, is in all that … because He must be there somewhere. “I AM” GOD OF FASHION is dedicated to souls’ redemption inside and near the fashion industry. Looking beyond superficial experiences, this book explores fashion through the light of the gospel of Jesus Christ. It examines industry’s key realities for the insiders, consumers, and fans of fashion, and equally inspires all to seek and find the Lord’s heart.
Fashion is a litmus test of any society and it embodies all major characteristics of human life of any given point in time and space. Not only that. In fashion, all of these qualities grow grotesque and reveal the true seed that is on the inside. Fashion and other artistic industries, however significant and fairly admired, are often regarded as “sinful” and un-redeemable. Additionally, they are certainly perceived as foreign and distant to the lordship of Jesus Christ. And it is therefore, nowhere else more than in fashion, that we are to reveal and deliver His Light, Love, and Truth. (From Goodreads)
Review:
~I'd like to thank the author for sending me a free copy in exchange for my honest review!~
This was one of the best non-fiction books I've ever read! It was very engaging, and I learned a lot. Even though this book was primarily about fashion, there are many principles that can be applied to everyone's daily life, such as consumerism, having idols, etc.
Even if you aren't interesting in fashion, I really recommend this book to you! You will learn a lot, even from this short book. It has blessed me and I hope it will bless you as well :) I can't wait to read more by this author!
