Ever wondered how someone can pivot from a high-pressure TV career to finding peace in faith? Julie Mirlicourtois shares her incredible journey on this episode of 'Anchored by the Sword'. Raised in a secular home, Julie was initially skeptical of religion. Her passion for storytelling led her to a successful career in documentaries and television, working with big names like CBS News and The Oprah Winfrey Show.
But the relentless demands of the industry took a toll on her mental health, causing anxiety and depression. Everything shifted when Julie moved to Houston and stumbled upon Story Church while searching for a school for her daughter. The community and teachings there didn't just change her perspective; they transformed her life. Julie and her husband found faith in Jesus, which became a cornerstone for her new purpose in life.
Inspired by her newfound faith, Julie began producing testimonial stories through the Maybe God podcast, touching hearts and minds worldwide. Her 2023 documentary 'ACROSS' shines a light on the struggles of asylum seekers and those who help them, showcasing her commitment to impactful storytelling. Join Gina Fox as she sits down with Julie to discuss this remarkable journey from skepticism to faith, and from mental turmoil to spiritual peace.
This episode is a testament to the power of community, faith, and the art of storytelling.
