Long story short, the documentary got me thinking about the issue of slavery again. (In fact, I had to pray so that I wouldn't stay up all night just thinking and could get rest to teach the next day.) I have been ruminating on the issue for days now, and in my search for what I can do practically to end slavery, I put this blog out to share what I know with you. May you join the fight that others may live and be given the love and dignity that we all are worthy of!

ReplyDeletethanks amanda! it's so good to see other people talking about this incredible film. there are so many things that people can do to make a differene in this absolutely nightmarish situation and the call and response website makes it so simple. it's especially lovely to see people who love God trying to spread the word and take serious action. i mean, that's what the church is supposed to do right? set the prisoners free, bring hope and deliverance to the captive. 27 million people in slavery means the church is not doing her job. we all need to respond to the call.
bless you and thank you again,
