Known for his quick wit, parody characters, and massive influence in the Chicago media scene, Kevinās life took a shocking turn when he was diagnosed with a rare form of multiple sclerosis (MS) in 2008. But a chance encounter with a broken statue of the Blessed Virgin Mary, found discarded near a dumpster, changed everything. The Turning Point Kevin saw the shattered statue and felt compelled to take her home. That moment became the beginning of a profound spiritual awakeningāhis return to the Catholic faith he had long ignored. The statue, lovingly called āBroken Mary,ā became a symbol of beauty in brokenness and a reminder that God never discards His children. The Film: Broken Mary The new movie tells the incredible true story of grace, suffering, and redemption through Maryās intercession. Shot in Chicago and Michigan, it traces Kevinās journey from fame and ego to humility and hope. The film highlights how God uses broken thingsāand broken peopleāto reveal His mercy. Ministry and Mission Kevin now travels the country sharing the message of hope, forgiveness, and healing through his Broken Mary Project and Rosary podcast. He reminds audiences that every wound can become a window for grace. Follow Kevinās work, Rosary app, books, and updates on the film at BrokenMary.com and on social media @BrokenMaryProject.
