In this episode of Straight Talk, No B.S. with Matthew’s Hope, presented by Imagine Marketing, Pastor Scott and Shelley continue their Real Faces of Homelessness series with Katie, a current guest of Matthew’s Hope.

Katie shares how her life started out “normal.” Growing up in a stable home with loving parents, graduating from college, having a successful corporate job and buying her first home at age 26. But then things quickly unraveled. Her life spiraled completely out of control and she found herself homeless and eventually on the verge of death.

This episode is part I of II with Katie so be sure to follow up next week to learn about the complete transformation she is in the midst of thanks to the support of Matthew’s Hope.

Each week, Pastor Scott, Shelley and guests share their experiences from operating a homeless outreach in Florida's Orange and Brevard Counties to raise awareness and tackle some of the biggest misconceptions surrounding the homeless crisis in America today.
