Thanks for listening to this Susie Larson Live podcast available thanks to support from listeners like you.

Welcome to Sissy Larson live Always always so honored to get to speak with you and spend this time with you.

In fact, I look forward to bringing you conversations every single day that hopefully inspire you in your faith walk, that deepen your understanding of God's word and that heightens your

awareness of his very real presence in your life. Really glad you joined us today. We've got a very

important program. I do want you to know that today's topic is not for young listening ears.

We're talking today about human trafficking in the U.S. It's happening globally. We've covered that

plenty of times on the show, but we're going to talk about domestically what's going on. This is Human Trafficking Awareness Month, and I've got two

mighty local heroes in studio to talk about this today. I want you to know we're going to give

away several copies of my book, Embracing Your Freedom. And this book is several years old,

but 50% of the royalties goes back into fighting human trafficking.

And it's about your freedom because the enemy wants to hold you captive.

And so there are people who are living free, who are total captives.

And it's about her freedom.

In between each chapter, there's a story of somebody who's been a slave.

And as you pray for your freedom, you're also going to pray for

her freedom. It's a pretty meaty read. I always say it's like a boot camp for the soul because

you're contending for your freedom. And then you're getting a more global perspective,

understanding that there are millions and millions and millions of slaves today, more than the

days of the transatlantic slave trade, which is hard to believe, but it's

true. So if you want another drawing, you can text the word book to 877-933-2484. That's 877-933, 2484.

Jenny Almquist and Stephanie Page are the two warriors that I'm talking about today. They work

locally to address the issue of human trafficking domestically. They're here to tell you some stories, to share updated information,
