Broken

Macy's Story

De: Janice Broyles

Narrado por: Emily Macario

Macy’s past won’t let her forget.

Macy Elmsworth has found herself in a mess. The 18-year-old pastor’s daughter got in trouble with the law, nearly died, and in the process, damaged her relationship with her family. She now needs to fulfill community service hours. As a last resort, she moves in with her grandparents, where they need a housekeeper at the small motel they own.

Feeling broken and defeated, Macy counts down the days to when her community service hours will be over, until she meets others at the motel. People a lot like her. People with questionable pasts and bleak futures.

As friendships are forged, Macy begins to come out of her shell and help her new friends. It is through these new relationships that she begins to repair the broken relationship with her family. But her past isn’t about to go away, and Macy is going to have to turn to God for the complete restoration she needs.

A tale of love and redemption

Families can be difficult and Macy’s is no different. I enjoyed her journey of not only finding and accepting herself but also learning to love the ones who have hurt her, forgiveness and redemption is the only way forward. Every young girl should take the time to listen to Macy’s story. I also really enjoyed the narrator who made the characters come to life! I’ll be watching for more work from Janice Broyles and Emily Macario.
