It's Chicago in the 1980s and '90s, and Kevin Matthews has it all as one of the nation's most recognized on-air radio personalities. He's partying with celebrities, rubbing shoulders with famous athletes, and the world is at his fingertips. Then everything changes -- he's diagnosed with a debilitating illness and the spotlight gradually slips away. At the height of his anguish, he stumbles upon a broken statue of the Virgin Mary, and his life takes an unexpected turn. In this moment of spiritual awakening, Kevin finds his true purpose and calling, discovering what matters most. Calling himself "Mary's Roadie," he offers his fans something deeper: inspiration and hope.

The man who was once famous for his radio shows, now becomes “Mary’s Roadie,” famous for his testimony to the hope that can be found when we acknowledge our brokenness and call upon Jesus, through the intercession of Mary, for healing and forgiveness.

Such a great personal testimony that so many people, not just Catholics, can relate to. It was an amazing treat to stay after to pray the rosary with him in the theater.

This was a very touching true story. The pacing was good and the narration was descriptive and authentic to ones feelings. It made me think more about taking time to acknowledge Blessed Mother Mary and praying the rosary.
