About this listen

New York Times, USA Today, and The Wall Street Journal best-selling author.

Life is messy. 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 audiobook 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 audiobook at the right time.

Supportive and Inspiring for those feelings broken

This book hits home for people feeling broken, betrayed, and otherwise at low points. Not only shows a ray of hope, but also some simple things anyone can do to better our own lives at humans, no matter where we are in our journey to becoming “more.” Highly recommend!

Grate book for perspective on life.

This book was suggested to me by a friend. I was going through a tough spot and this was a good book to read to help with how I was looking at my issues and how I would be after. Highly recommend.

My Life is Messy, too

Thank you Matthew, This book talks to all the messiness and heartache of my life. I know now the messiness has purpose. It is the journey of being real. I don't need to hide in the shadows in shame or sadness. You have given me a new challenge to take risks. I have been avoiding risks, because I don't want another failure. May God continue Blessing you Matthew any Dynamic Catholic.

A must read/listen.

This is one of the best books I've ever read/listened to. Loved it! I have actually both read the book and listened to the audible and will probably do it again. I hope everyone has someone to love them when they are sad and that we never waste our gold dust. ♥️

Everyone should read this book!

Life is Messy was given to me by my aunt. I read the book and then downloaded it to audible. I have listened to it several times now. I have become a huge fan of Matthew Kelly after listening to several more of his books!

Absolutely amazing.

This is by far one of the best books I have ever listened to. I’m so grateful that I happened upon it. I will listen to it over and over. The author is genuine. Some of the messages are difficult to hear but necessary for proper healing. I would highly recommend it to anyone who’s been through trauma.
