The Girl They Called Ugly: A Journey from Wounded Identity to God's Restoration (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9798195279882)

The Girl They Called Ugly
How God Restored the Identity the World Tried to Break

What happens when a word spoken over you as a child... follows you into adulthood?

For Lisa Renee James, it was one word: ugly.

It started in seventh grade, on a school bus, where boys ranked girls and decided who was "pretty" and who wasn't. No one had to say her name. She already knew.

But what began as a moment became a belief.
And that belief shaped everything.

This book is a raw and powerful journey through the hidden impact of rejection, identity wounds, and the patterns they create in relationships, self-worth, and decision-making.

Inside, you'll discover:

• Why you don't choose your type, your wounds do
• How early words shape your standards and relationships
• The difference between being chosen and being valued
• Why you keep attracting "almost" instead of alignment
• How healing changes what you tolerate, pursue, and accept

This is more than a story.
It's an invitation to confront the root of what you've believed about yourself.

If you've ever felt:

• overlooked
• unchosen
• not enough
• or defined by something that was never true

This book will meet you there, and walk you out.

Because you are not what they called you.
You are not the words that wounded you.

You are the woman God saw from the beginning.

Whole. Worthy. Chosen.

If you're ready to break the word that tried to break you, this book is for you.
