I am joined by Bethany Johnson, Communications Director for Rapha International. 


Rapha International is a public benefit 501c3 nonprofit committed to ending the trafficking and sexual exploitation of children. Founded in 2003, Rapha continues to rescue and rehabilitate children, while bringing them to lasting freedom. Rapha’s vision is to see all children living in sustainable freedom within safe communities.

Over the last 20 years, thousands have been impacted by Rapha's mission- to end the trafficking and sexual abuse of children- one child, one family, and one community at a time.

We will talk about:

​Defining sexual expression versus sexual exploitation

• ​Media portrayals of trafficking and their accuracy
• ​What your financial contributions to this organization actually fund
• ​How proper sex education and healthy expression can help protect the vulnerability of individuals susceptible to exploitation
• ​How communities and support systems like the Church can better assist individuals in navigating the complexities of sexual identity, healthy covenant-bound sexual expression and sexual exploitation​
• ​How you can partner with Rapha in awareness, prevention and aftercare.
