Move On: When Mercy Meets Your Mess
Vicki Courtney
About the Book:
You can say good-bye to the person you’ve been pretending to be!
Life is often messy. God makes provision to help us move beyond our messes.
Oftentimes our first instincts are to hide, deny, ignore, or run. In Move On best-selling author Vicki Courtney helps readers come clean with their muddy messes, revealing the deeper issues they must face, including:
- the need for approval
- struggles and broken dreams
- shame
- legalism
- idols
- Christian snobbery
It is in the middle of our messes, Vicki says, that Mercy shows up and offers us a safe place to process our struggles, imperfections, doubts, and fears. Once we face our messes, God, with his sweet mercy, can help us to get real, deal, and truly move on. Then with Mercy by our side, we are able to break free and experience the grace and freedom God intends.

My Review:
When I first seen Move On by Vicki Courtney and I read what the book was about, I was scared to pick this book up. I thought to myself “can this book really fix the mess I am?” Then I started reading and realized that this book was written for me and how much I really needed to read this book and let the truths soak in.
It is easy to run, to hide, to give up, to put on a mask and not let anyone know that your life is a mess. We want people to think we have it all together, but deep inside we are screaming for help and want someone to just ask us “Are you really okay?” Vicki Courtney helps us with that by tackling issues such as:
The need for approval, our brokenness, and shame we feel, what idols we have and even those cliques you may be in at church (Yes, the snobby ones). God wants to help us and we can let Him help by allowing His Mercy in to our lives. We long for freedom and there is only one person that can give us that freedom, God!! So, what are waiting on, allow God’s mercy to help you overcome these messes you have your life. I am glad I did!!!!!!!
