Synopsis

How do you get perspective and encouragement to focus forward when you are in the middle of a sad, distressing or life-altering challenge in your life?Mess to Message serves as a great start. It provides a story in each chapter about a life challenge and the good - the message - that resulted. It provides a reflection after each story that encourages us to see and seek God in the mess. It provides hope - through a positive lens - to negative situations.Scott Wittig and Allison Cain allow themselves to be radically vulnerable as they share their own stories for the good of their fellow man. Mess to Message is a manifesto for adults and teens in search of what can be life-saving perspective, that good can come from not-so-good.They believe that owning the perspective that a message can come from a mess not only grants us strength and perspective to claw through the fight that our own life challenges pose, but also the wisdom and words that friends, family, and loved ones need as they seek our love and assistance during their battles. If you are living through some messiness of your own, find hope in these pages. Their prayer is that you will look back to this book as a force that led you toward good.

About the Author

Scott Wittig is a survivor of two failed suicide attempts. His perspective of
finding the good in the not-so-good has probably saved his life by keeping his
mind from defaulting to the negative as so many minds do. He is a believer, a
husband and a dad. He is also the author of two books - "Holy It! A Guide to
Finding and Doing Your Thing - Your 'It'" and "The Second Day."

Allison Cain is passionate about finding God in the ordinary and encouraging
others to open and explore the Bible. She is the author of several books
including: In the Mi[God]dle, Revision of a Heart, The Whisper of God and
Wholeheartedly. In addition to her role as an author and teacher, she is a wife,
mother, sister, daughter and friend. Allison views herself as a child of God who
strives to discern His voice in her everyday life and live in a way that blesses those around her.
