About this listen

Confident in her ability to overcome her troubled, nomadic childhood, Missy is determined to become the perfect woman who will partner with her new husband to achieve the American Dream. When her husband is enchanted by a mysterious prophet who promises to show them how to escape the final, climactic end of the world, Missy surrenders everything to save her marriage and her own immortal soul.

In grippingly intimate details that can only be achieved through personal experience, A Message Wife describes one woman’s journey into and out of The Message, an apocalyptical church that demands absolute submission from wives and grants absolute power to husbands. Far from enjoying the wholesome family and marital bliss she craves, Missy discovers a world of secrets, of shameful whispered confessions, and a return of the thing she dreads the most.

A Message Wife is a story of self-deception and misplaced trust, of forgetting and remembering, of failing and continuing to fight. It is a reminder of the power of truth and love and the importance of facing what we do not wish to see.
