About

Hopelessness is everywhere. It doesn't discriminate. It's a form of spiritual poverty lurking in remote villages, destitute refugee camps, suburban homes, and corner offices. The sheer magnitude of the needs we see can paralyze us, harden our hearts, and tempt us to choose indifference.

But when we lose hope, we surrender both our earthly influence and our spiritual inheritance. With rich biblical teaching and remarkable stories, Heath Adamson invites you to exchange what is with what could be. The hope he writes of isn't wishful thinking. It's a biblical, transformative, future-focused force that breaks through our circumstances, and makes it possible for us to work alongside God to effect meaningful change.

If you have been discouraged or overwhelmed, you are not alone. By seeing beyond your life, you will discover how true hope can change your mindset and reignite your passion to serve others.


Endorsements

"We're often tempted to despair by the external struggles we see all around us--poverty, war, pain, loss--but Heath Adamson rightly reminds us that our truest, deepest struggle is often with hopelessness. In Hope Breaks Through, he gives a powerful invitation to overcome this spiritual poverty and help others do the same, without sugarcoating the world we live in."

Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author. The Circle Maker; lead pastor, National Community Church

"Before I read a book, I ask two basic questions: Does the author have credibility? And do they have something meaningful to say? Author Heath Adamson scores on both counts. His book Hope Breaks Through offers a fresh approach to a timely topic. This book will help you better understand the ways and purposes of God. On a scale of 1 to 10, this is a 10."

Hal Donaldson, founder and CEO, Convoy of Hope

"Hope Breaks Through compels us to step into our calling as the hands and feet of Jesus in a broken world. With compassion and clarity, Heath Adamson shares the profound truth that the hope we carry is not meant to be kept to ourselves but shared as a living testament of God's mercy and love. This book is a powerful reminder that when God's Spirit works in and through us, we become agents of change--bringing light to darkness, healing to the hurting, and hope to the hopeless. This is not just a book; it's a call to action!"

Daniela Freidzon McCabe, pastor, King of Kings, Buenos Aires, Argentina

"In a world that often feels paralyzed by hopelessness, Heath Adamson's words serve as both a beacon of light and a call to action. With deep biblical insight and inspiring stories, this book reminds us that hope is not a distant dream but a present, transformative force. Adamson challenges us to step out of our comfort zones, to exchange what is for what could be, and to partner with God in making a tangible difference in our world. His message is clear: Hope is not passive--it is a catalyst for change. I wholeheartedly recommend this book to anyone longing to rediscover the power of hope in their lives and communities."

Rev. Samuel Rodriguez, author; lead pastor, New Season; president and CEO, National Hispanic Christian Leadership Conference

"In Hope Breaks Through, Heath challenges us to not so easily give up our rightful inheritance as children of God, which is the ability to hope in him once more. Through telling powerful and redemptive stories that reveal God's faithfulness to those who trust and believe, Heath walks us through an insightful scriptural journey of the power of hope so that we, as God's children, can be used and blessed by the Lord more than ever before!"

Al Toledo, lead pastor, Chicago Tabernacle

"Hope Breaks Through is a transformative read, where Adamson masterfully draws from his personal world travels as well as Bible stories to reveal hope as the spiritual inheritance of every believer. His reflections powerfully demonstrate a reminder that even in dark and desperate circumstances, hope remains an ever-shining light."

Rob Hoskins, president, OneHope

"Indifference and fear cease where love is in action; hope abides where there is knowledge and wisdom. We need to be a people who create an environment of hope that can help people move away from despondency and move toward optimism about their future. Heath encourages us to change focus and see a God who thinks differently about us."

Rev. Philip Kitoto, general superintendent, Kenya Assemblies of God; chair, Evangelical Alliance of Kenya
