Hey friends, today's episode is brought to you in part by our friends at international justice mission.

IJM, as you'll know, is a global nonprofit working to end slavery, like in slavery and violence around the world.

And Eddie, you work there.

Like you said, like end slavery.

I mean, sometimes people just hear us say in slavery and it just like passes over.

But like, IJM wants to end slavery.

Oh, yeah.

And it's actually happening, which has been my favorite part is once you get inside IJM.

And you see what it's really like.

Like, are is it really happening?

And yes, in fact, slavery is ending all around the globe in, you know, Southern Asia.

We work with law enforcement in Latin America.

I mean, all around the globe, you can see that, you know, we're in some really dark, hard places and some really deep pain in the world.

But we are helping the full force of the law come to bear and to provide justice and healing for people.

And we've been at it for 20 years.

I've been at it with IJM for six, which I feel privileged.

And it is just because of the amazing partners that we have and really the miracles that we see, that we see over and over and over again that hope is possible.

And it is beyond tragedy when we come together for good.

We've seen over 50,000 people come out of slavery because of the work we get to be a part of.

And so it is absolutely stunning to get to be a part of that with you.

Yeah.

And there are thousands more y'all children, men, women who are still waiting for rescue to end slavery means these people cannot be in slavery anymore.
