Learn More About Her Story
Nita Tin is not just a survivor. She’s a storyteller, a prayer warrior, a speaker, and a faithful guide for others navigating life’s valleys. Her story of grace and grit spans continents and callings. Through it all, she remains anchored in hope.
Born into an aristocratic Burmese family, Nita’s early life was one of opulence and luxury – until political unrest, civil war, and personal loss changed everything. Forced to leave her homeland with her husband and two small children, they began their life anew in the United States with only twenty dollars and unwavering faith.
What followed was a life grounded in sacrifice, service, and an ever-deepening relationship with Christ.
Nita calls herself “an emptied, broken vessel, saved to tell of the glorious gospel of Christ.” For over five decades, she has been doing just that, whether from a stage, across a table, or through the pages of her book.
Her journey is one of cultural courage, marital devotion, and spiritual awakening. From the ashes of grief and hardship rose a radiant testimony of God’s healing love. Through each twist in her journey, Nita found purpose not only in surviving but in helping others thrive.
Today, Nita resides in a creative arts community outside Atlanta, Georgia, where she writes, speaks, coaches, and crafts beautiful things with her hands and heart. Her story is not the end. It is an invitation for you to step into your own.

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. It’s not to be popular or to receive accolades but to be an ambassador for Jesus Christ... 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.
An ambassador for Jesus Christ

Wow. What a life…. Nita Tin’s story is truly hard to believe, and she has captured it so well in these pages. From Burma to New York to Chattanooga, from wealth to poverty and everything in between, Nita and her amazing husband faced challenges you will struggle to believe. Nita Tin is a courageous survivor who lives out the word ‘grace’ like no one we have ever met. One of the richest blessings of Sharon and I moving to Georgia has been meeting and getting to know Nita.
What a life!
