Shattered and Broken...By God's Grace...Forgiven and Whole
Changed by God’s grace by unimaginable life circumstances, searching for her significance. Now, her title,
“Overcomer” from, abandonment, emotional, physical, sexual, abuse. Abortion, divorce, suicide, and depression.
God’s plan for Christie was centered on the cross.
Christie’s story is about one life changed by God’s grace by unbelievable life circumstances. A childhood survivor of emotional, physical, and sexual abuse. She suffered severe abuse in the girl's home where she lived during childhood. Later in life, her father was murder in her home. In dealing with severe depression, she contemplated her own suicide. But by the grace of God, He Intervened miraculously, and her attempt was unsuccessful. Years later, she then endured the horror of her husband committing suicide in a federal courthouse. Christie's life appeared destined for failure.
But God had different plans for Christie. Along the way, she got saved and found that Jesus promised her a plan for her life-giving her hope and a future, Jeremiah 29:11. Christie then embraced her past and started sharing her story of how God used her past for His good. Which started Christie's speaking ministry in 2007, and founding Hope Knows Your Name Ministries. She tells her life story with such vulnerability, which is so captivating in her book “Hope Knows Your Name.” She speaks believing passionately that each of us is born with a purpose. Christie’s Story will leave you breathless, as she shares all the details about her journey in life, and the precious road she took to finding Christ, leaving you feeling full of hope.
Christie is committed to working with individuals, organizations, churches, conferences, weekend retreats, schools, radio, television, boys, and girl’s detention centers, and social media platforms. Christie captivates and stuns audiences with her story and then calmly empowers them to accept challenges, embrace change, and to take action in their everyday life, to realize no one, nor any situation is hopeless. Her Tenacity and credibility are indisputable as she so obviously lives her message by example. People leave inspired and encouraged to take action regardless of the obstacles. Imagine the impact of these same words of hope in your organization or congregation.
In 2019 she filmed with the 700 Club with Pat Robertson, to share her story.
As Christie often says, "God has a miraculous way of taking the shattered pieces of your life and making them whole again." You will be encouraged and challenged by God's amazing grace to overcome seemingly impossible circumstances. Purchase her copy of Hope Knows Your Name, and you will see one Shattered and Broken life, But God....forgiven and whole. Mistakes were made, but you have your whole life in front of you waiting to be filled. Whatever has happened in the past in no way prevents you from filling that experience to the brim with real goodness and joy. Right now, is entirely up to you. Right now, is your time to make a choice. Choose to focus on your positive possibilities. Choose to look upward. Choose to look ahead. Put a smile on your face. Stand up, shake yourself off, and step confidently forward. Step forward in the direction of your dreams—yes, your goals. You owe it to yourself, and you owe it to the entire world, to bring those dreams to life.

Christie Musso in one word is a survivor! No matter the challenging times she faced; she pulled herself up, moved forward, inspiring so many of us along the way. I first met Christie more than 10 years ago at a single ministry dinner. We hit it off immediately. Her new book God Grace is enough will make such a difference in the lives of anyone who reads her words. So many people, me included, have faced miseries and obstacles we never anticipated. I am so grateful to call Christie a friend. She's a hard worker, a tireless advocate for all in need. Had it not been for her openness and helpfulness, many of us would have never reached the other side of the mountain.

It's not often that a speaker leaves you on the edge of your seat, totally engrossed in a compelling testimony, and then fills you with such a sense of hope for the future...Christie Musso accomplishes this and so much more. Christie's compelling story of triumph over defeat gives her audience such encouragement to meet every trial with renewed determination. In addition, she's warm, charming and accessible! I highly recommend Christie for your next gathering, meeting or conference.

It is my privilege to commend to you, Christie Musso Bruce. Christie was an active member of our church that I have known for several years now. Christie’s story is an amazing story of survival and perseverance, but more than that, a testimony of the grace of God in her life. She is more than a survivor - she is someone who has been transformed by the love of God. Christie also has high natural leadership abilities that have allowed her to be very efficient in affecting the lives of others in positive ways. I commend her to you, believing that her story of grace will inspire anyone who hears it.

I heard Christie on the morning radio show on 93.7 WDJC. I am part of the Youth Jail Ministry program. We go to the Coosa Valley Youth Services where there are 3 facilities. There is the Lewis Center that houses all boys, Attention which is all girls and Detention which is boys and girls. I go to the Attention every week to hang out with the girls and try to encourage them someway. When I heard Christie on the radio I knew I needed her to come speak to the girls. They need HOPE, Christie is the perfect example of HOPE. The girls loved her! They ask when she can come back all the time. The boys and girls were locked in to Christie and listen to her story of hope.
