Heartbeat of a Survivor: From Golden Pagodas to a Soul Set Free

A former Buddhist, Nita Tin is originally from Burma, currently known as Myanmar. She is the co-founder of Tin Laser Vision and was Practice Administrator of the Chattanooga and North Georgia medical practice for 45 years. She is an avid motivational speaker, a conference leader, a Bible teacher, and author. She received the 2023 Lydia Impact Award from the Scenic City Women’s Network for her contribution as an Extraordinary Working Christian Woman. A movie script based on her story, Love Without Borders, was officially chosen by the Christian Worldview Film Festival 2023 and was awarded 2nd place. Her prolific letters of encouragement and heart-warming lectures pointing to God’s grace and mercy have ministered to hundreds of students, friends, colleagues, and patients.

The journey to our eternal home is her theme, and her message is hope, strength, and encouragement for a child of God traveling through the pain and hopelessness of a fallen world and God's offer of freedom and salvation for those who are still trapped in sin's darkness. Her life's verse is found in Jeremiah 31:3. “I have loved you with an everlasting love, Therefore with lovingkindness have I drawn you” (AMP). God's unending love is what she pours out through her life and ministry as she seeks to draw believers closer to bask in the love of a heavenly Father. Nita describes herself as an emptied, broken vessel, saved to tell of the glorious gospel of Christ.

Nita Tin’s story seems like something that couldn’t have really happened, but it did—the wealth, the poverty; the darkness, the light; the way she and her husband have loved each other; and the way they have loved God. I often wondered, Did they really love each other and trust God like that? Yes, they did. But don’t believe me. Read for yourself.

Nita Tin has always walked with the Lord, depended on Him, and desired to glorify Him in everything she does. She knows the reason she has written her story, Heartbeat of a Survivor. It’s not to be popular or to receive accolades but to be an ambassador for Jesus Christ.

God sent Nita as an example among believers in thought, word, and deed, and in purity, godliness, and holiness—and it is a privilege to say these things. She is a valiant warrior. God has given her to us as a representative of what He will do when we walk fully hand in hand with the Lord, desiring to serve Him and exalt Him as we take no glory for ourselves.
