Join me as I take you behind the scenes of my most emotionally challenging documentary, 'Faith Under Fire.' In this deeply personal episode, I reveal how documenting the 1980 Daingerfield church shooting transformed not just the survivors' lives, but my own. You'll hear about my spine-chilling interview with the shooter's wife, the unexpected phone call from his daughter that changed everything, and the divine intervention that redirected my entire film.
Discover how God orchestrated miraculous moments during production—from providing twin toddlers exactly when we needed them to facilitating healing between families torn apart by trauma for over 30 years. I share the powerful moment when the shooter's daughter met the victim's mother, what happened at the emotional film premiere, and the incredible redemption story that unfolded years later.
Whether you're interested in documentary filmmaking, true crime stories, faith journeys, healing from trauma, or simply the power of storytelling to transform lives, this episode offers wisdom, hope and inspiration about how beauty can emerge from even the darkest moments. I hope you will listen this remarkable story of faith tested by fire and the unexpected reconciliation that followed.
