Welcome to Litsy!

All she ever wanted was to feel special. Beautiful. Chosen. As a teenager, Chrissy Cymbala Toledo would listen to songs about girls whom someone adored. Often they were songs her boyfriend gave her, ones that made her believe, “That's the kind of girl he wants. That's who I have to be.” So she tried . . . and tried. Her whole world centered on looking good and doing whatever it took to keep her boyfriend by her side. She never meant to drift so far from God along the way, or to hurt her parents; she thought she was following love wherever it led. But the song changed when Chrissy's life took a shocking turn, one that left her devastated and alone. Nothing would ever be the same again. And if she wasn't the girl in the song—could anyone love the girl she really was? Intimate and emotionally compelling, The Girl in the Song is the page-turning story of one woman's journey to discover her true self—and the God who loved her enough to send a miracle. As you experience the song God is writing through her story and yours, you'll sense his hand on your own life, and know you are accepted and loved at last.
