At age seven, Isabel Perez-McCoy stared at her school picture and thought, "I'm an ugly duckling." That one negative thought planted in her young mind and grew over the years and reaped years of self-rejection, self-hatred, low self-esteem, and struggle with her weight.
The peer pressures and the dictates from society's false paradigms that women have to look a certain way just to fit in had its grip like a trap on Isabel's heart and mind. She wanted to break free and walk in the love of God.
God took Isabel on a journey and revealed to her that she and other women possess an inner beauty that is only found through His Son, Jesus, the Bridegroom, the true paradigm of true beauty and perfect love. Inner beauty is not just about body image. It is about the whole person.

What others are saying about the book?
Isabel's journey is one of beauty and strength. She is vulnerable, thoughtful and thought-provoking. This is a book every girl who longs to know God should have.

Isabel begs the question of what does a life fully surrendered to God look like. In this book, she dissects and categorizes just that. With illuminating questions at the end of the chapters, Inner Beauty becomes more than a book. It becomes a personal journey to achieve a life surrendered to our own true inner beauty. Mrs. McCoy has created an effective structure for a dynamic devotional. I highly recommend this book to anyone who's not afraid to look in the mirror.
