Distorted View: My Life, My Journey
Revised & Expanded Second Edition
Some stories are written to be remembered. Others are written to help someone survive.
For years, Cherelle Patrice Ward lived through seasons of heartbreak, disappointment, loss, and painful circumstances that threatened to define her life. Looking through the lens of hurt distorted how she viewed herself, others, and even God.
But healing changed everything.
In this revised and expanded second edition of Distorted View: My Life, My Journey, Cherelle revisits her story with greater clarity, wisdom, and faith. With honesty and vulnerability, she shares the difficult moments that shaped her life while revealing how God transformed pain into purpose and brokenness into strength.
More than a memoir, this is a testimony that healing is possible.
Inside you'll discover:
- A brand-new foreword: What I Know Now
- A new chapter: What Healing Taught Me
- Updated reflections throughout the book
- Deeper insights on forgiveness, faith, identity, and emotional healing
- Encouragement for anyone rebuilding after disappointment, trauma, grief, or broken relationships
Whether you've struggled with rejection, abuse, abandonment, loss, divorce, betrayal, or simply finding your worth, you'll discover that your scars don't have to define your future.
Your past may explain your story, but it doesn't have to determine your ending.
If you've ever wondered whether God could still use someone who's been broken...
If you've ever questioned your value because of what you've endured...
If you've been searching for hope after life's hardest seasons...
This book was written for you.
Because healing doesn't erase the scars.
It changes the way you see them.
