A Mother’s Love and the Savior’s Love: Lessons from Surrogacy with Myndie Tullis

You've heard this story through my eyes, but in this episode, you're hearing it from my mom's.After the complications that led to my emergency hysterectomy, my mom felt an unexpected impression while sitting by my hospital bed. As I was waking up from surgery, she voiced an impression that would change both of our lives: "You know I'll have your baby, right?"In this conversation on His House, my mom, Myndie Tullis, shares what happened next—from the spiritual promptings and confirmations that led her to become my gestational carrier to the lessons she learned about faith, motherhood, and trusting God through the unexpected.She opens up about those difficult weeks in the hospital through a mother's eyes, the experiences that gave her confidence she was on the right path, and how the journey deepened her understanding of Jesus Christ. We also talk about how God prepares us for mountains we don't yet see coming, the power available through covenants, and why a mother's love can teach us so much about the Savior's love for us.We also discuss lessons from nearly three decades of motherhood, the encouragement she would give to her younger self, and why she believes moms are often doing far better than they think.Whether you've followed our story from the beginning or are hearing parts of it for the first time, I hope this conversation reminds you that God prepares us for hard things, walks with us through them, and can turn even the most unexpected circumstances into something beautiful.
