Wilson Hickman is a spiritual storytelling visionary and a devoted follower of Jesus with a deep passion for crafting meaningful, God-honoring stories. From a young age, Wilson began writing books across multiple genres, and his creativity eventually led him into the world of visual storytelling and film.
Today, Wilson uses his gift to create stories that reflect real human struggles, spiritual truths, and the ongoing battle between good and evil. When developing a film, he often draws inspiration from his own life—learning, growing, and discovering meaning alongside the characters he creates.
His latest work is an award-winning proof-of-concept episode for a Christian-themed fantasy TV series called The Lost Healer, a project inspired by real-world spiritual warfare and designed to transport viewers into a rich new world while helping them navigate their own struggles. Think Pilgrim’s Progress meets Narnia—a compelling blend of imagination, adventure, and biblical truth.
Recognizing the power of media to shape culture, Wilson is committed to creating entertainment that is excellent, engaging, and grounded in a Christian worldview. His work aims to reach broad audiences while pointing them toward hope, goodness, and the heart of God.
