Award-winning author Heidi Tucker never planned to write books until a vivid dream on an airplane changed everything. After battling severe postpartum depression that left her hiding under her baby's crib, she discovered how to transform life's darkest moments into sources of strength and service. Her latest book, "A Necessary Lie," tells the harrowing story of North Korean defectors and is now being developed into a worldwide feature film. Through her father's examples of secret service and her own journey through mental health struggles, Heidi learned that faith isn't just about believing but about taking action on those beliefs. Listen as she shares how God continues to bring her the stories she's meant to tell and why she sees Christ as the steady lighthouse guiding us through life's storms. Her insights on patience, service, and finding purpose after trauma will inspire anyone seeking hope in their own difficult seasons.
