Finding Hope

A Note from Ricky Mathews:

Are you struggling right now, wondering if you'll ever find hope again? Or are you concerned about someone you care about who is going through a storm?

Life's storms come for all of us. After walking through my own, including battling undiagnosed dyslexia as a child, surviving Hurricane Katrina, overcoming PTSD as a first responder, and getting a wake-up call when my own heart stopped, and meeting so many inspiring people on my journey who overcame incredible challenges, I wrote Finding Hope as a practical handbook of hope for you.

This book follows the natural journey of hope, from the small spark inside us, through the hard testing and growth, to the point where hope shines brightly and then spreads outward to others. I share 25 battle-tested lifelines that offer real encouragement, hard-won wisdom, and the strength to keep going when everything feels heavy.

Hope isn't just found.

It's fought for - and meant to be passed forward.

If you need a light in dark times, or want to help someone you love find theirs, this book was written for you.

Pass Hope Forward(TM)

With hope,

Ricky Mathews
