About this listen

Have you ever felt stuck—literally or figuratively?

We’ve all been there: trapped in a frustrating limbo, asking ourselves, “Why is this happening to me?” But what if I told you that those “stuck” moments are exactly where God plants His greatest lessons? STUCK takes you on a chaotic, exhausting, and surprisingly transformative journey: ten days stranded in an airport that turned into a masterclass in faith, patience, and finding purpose in the midst of chaos.

Inside this audiobook, you’ll discover:

• How to find purpose in the waiting – because God’s timing is never a mistake, but preparation for something greater.

• What to do when your plans fall apart – and how to trust that every closed door is part of a divine design.

• Practical lessons in patience and gratitude – when all you have is time and the assurance that God is still in control.

• How God uses people on your path – from strangers to angels in disguise, they’re all part of His plan.

• Why the Bible isn’t just a book, but your daily survival guide – even when it’s buried in your checked luggage.... and MUCH MORE!

With heartfelt reflections, humour, and profound spiritual truths, this book shows you that life’s detours aren’t punishments—they’re tools God uses to shape you and draw you closer to Him.

If you’re ready to laugh, reflect, and see how God works even in life’s delays, click “Buy Now” and start this journey with me!

Because sometimes, being stuck isn’t a mistake...it’s exactly where you need to be.

PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

This book really made me think about how I handle unexpected roadblocks in life. The part about finding purpose in the waiting really hit home for me—I’ve been in situations where things felt completely out of my control, and this reminded me that sometimes delays are part of a bigger plan. The author’s experiences were both relatable and insightful, and I found myself laughing at some of the moments while also reflecting on my own faith and patience. I also shared a few of the lessons with my mom, who’s going through a tough time, and she said it helped her shift her mindset. It’s a great reminder that even when life feels frustrating, there’s always something to learn.

I’m not someone who follows organized religion, but I do strongly believe in karma and that everything happens for a reason. This book still really landed with me. The author shares lessons that made me pause and reflect—like not taking life for granted, being patient, and recognizing when things fall apart, it's not random. Even though a lot of it is framed around God, the messages are universal if you look deeper. It’s about slowing down, paying attention, and trusting that where you are isn’t a mistake.

This book surprised me in the best way. What started as a story about being stuck in an airport turned into something much deeper. Each day brought a new lesson that made me reflect on how I handle stress, change, and discomfort in my own life. It was honest, relatable, and full of small but powerful reminders to pause and trust.

The chapter on decision-making really spoke to me. Just last week, I had to make a tough call about my job. I remembered one of the author's reflections about waiting with purpose instead of panicking—and that helped me slow down and choose with more peace.

You know those times when you feel like you're just stuck in mud, wheels spinning, going nowhere fast? That’s been me more times than I can count. So, listening to Melanie Brecht recount her ten-day airport marathon in Stuck! felt so real. She doesn't just tell a story; she invites you into her head and heart as she navigates that unexpected pit stop, showing how God can really work in those moments when our own plans go completely sideways. It made me nod along, thinking, 'Yep, been there,' but also gave me a fresh lens for my own detours.

I'd definitely pass this one along to anyone who's wrestling with a 'why me?' season and needs a little encouragement to see God's hand in the waiting.
