  • Heather Vescio (From the Frontlines of Crime to the Footsteps of Faith)
    Jun 3 2025

    In this episode, we sit down with a former FBI Forensic Examiner who was working on the front lines of the FBI, battling the darkest corners of child exploitation and terrorism. Her work was intense, heartbreaking, and deeply personal.

    Fighting evil took a toll on her soul, but she eventually found restoration and faith in Christ. This is a raw, redemptive conversation about trauma, triumph, and trust in a God who is good.
