"Life is Messy" by Matthew Kelly
Pick up your FREE copy in the back of church
It isn't a color within the lines exercise. It's a wild and outrageous invitation full of uncertain outcomes.
The mess of life is both inevitable and unexpected. It is filled with delightful mysteries and frustrating predicaments.
In our disposable culture, we throw broken things away. So what will we do with broken people, broken relationships, broken institutions, broken families and of course our very own broken selves? We are all broken and wounded.
This book is about putting our lives back together and allowing ourselves to be put back together, when life doesn't turn out as we expected it to.
Based on his own heart-wrenching personal journals, Matthew Kelly shares how the worst three years of his life affected him by exploring this question: Can someone who has been broken be healed and become more beautiful and more lovable than ever before?
The answer will fill you with hope. There has never been a more urgent need for us to attend to what is happening within us.
This is quite simply the right book at the right time.
