I WAS A FORMER SEX-TRAFFICKER
April 7, 2012
Courtesy of The Resurgence, here is a short film about Jacob, a man who was a former sex-trafficker turned slave-liberator due to the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
The Urban Gospel Mission is a Christian resource website that is devoted to building the bridge between the gospel and urban culture by presenting articles, videos, testimonies, and music that not only address cultural problems, but point to solutions for each issue. Our desire is to raise up a movement of Christian revolutionaries who are proactively creating long-lasting change in the urban culture.

“The churches didn’t want to get involved at all. They just gave me a pat on the back and said, We’ll pray for you.” -Jacob #ReadIsaiah61
“At the root of sexual exploitation is demand.” – Tony Anderson #SiddharthKara http://www.hks.harvard.edu/cchrp/isht/aboutus.php
Everything stops. Everything changes. Except Jesus.
I believe one of the most powerful things said is that “men” are the problem. We are supposed to lead women and children towards Christ. But when we are heading in the wrong the direction, that changes everything.
But the hope is not in men changing but in “the Gospel of Jesus Christ” because that is what changes the heart.

Thanks for posting this. This is really an inspiring story.
It’s so encouraging and awesome to see how God can transform people! Kinda makes you think twice about the people in your life that you have given up on, saying “God can’t change people like that.”
