Eunice R,
As I began to read more and more of this book, Ending Human Trafficking, I became more and more overwhelmed and agitated and the "citizen savior" emotions arose。 There were sleepless, mind whirling nights。 Indeed, I had had no idea of the extent of human trafficking that bridges and taints the world with all its evil capacities and comprises。 However, as I read further into the book, I found that there are comprehensive helps for victims, not just in the rescue domain but from where the traffic As I began to read more and more of this book, Ending Human Trafficking, I became more and more overwhelmed and agitated and the "citizen savior" emotions arose。 There were sleepless, mind whirling nights。 Indeed, I had had no idea of the extent of human trafficking that bridges and taints the world with all its evil capacities and comprises。 However, as I read further into the book, I found that there are comprehensive helps for victims, not just in the rescue domain but from where the trafficking sources can be nipped in the bud with pre-emptive, prevention measures。 From this, light began to dawn in my heart that hope for the most vulnerable of victims could be available when ongoing, wisely-determined efforts could be sustained。Awareness is a giant key to prevention and this book explains how a person can help without causing worse trouble for the victims, which starts by being rid of the dangerous 'citizen savior' desire。 The authors systematically unfold this awareness using a series of five Ps which are expounded upon of how a collaboration of churches, law enforcement and other anti-trafficking organizations can work together to achieve these Ps。 The authors want each and every one of us caring people to know the undergirding thought and the basis for making the effort to stop the trafficking, be it for labor or for commerial sex exploitation, is that human beings are 'imago Dei' - made in the image of God。 As such, each individual should be respected and treated with decency and dignity。This is definitely a faith based, Christian book。 Various Bible verses are quoted and prayer is an important viable factor P which adheres and joins the other Ps in effective community (read the book to discover those Ps)。 Additionally, the book ends with some important Appendices and makes note of some case studies from which lessons have been learned。 This is very much a "must read" and then "take action" sort of book。 Church leaders, pastors and even congregants, the world over, should all be encouraged to read and then act upon, in the way best suited to your particular membership and community; being sure to partnership with those who are more experienced in the goal of ending human trafficking。 ~Eunice C。, Reviewer/Blogger~ January 2022Disclaimer: This is my honest opinion based on the complimentary review copy sent by NetGalley and the publisher。 。。。more
Carlee Miller,
I have read other books on this topic, but I still found this very educational and informative。 This is a much needed read, and I would recommend it or get it for people when it comes out。 This book is intended for members of the church and leaders of the church who want to help those victimized by trafficking。 Something I appreciated about this was the breakdown of types of trafficking, as well as the authors’ work and strategies for supporting those victimized by trafficking。 I also appreciate I have read other books on this topic, but I still found this very educational and informative。 This is a much needed read, and I would recommend it or get it for people when it comes out。 This book is intended for members of the church and leaders of the church who want to help those victimized by trafficking。 Something I appreciated about this was the breakdown of types of trafficking, as well as the authors’ work and strategies for supporting those victimized by trafficking。 I also appreciated that the authors referenced specific books and verses of the Bible throughout。 Thank you NetGalley for the ARC and the opportunity to share my opinions on the book! 。。。more

This is a book that can help churches and other establishments to help in the human trafficking issue we have in our nation and worldwide。 It is especially helpful for faith based communities to get involved and become organized with local law enforcement to help with this out of control problem。 This book is very good at laying things out in how it should be done, working with law enforcement and listening to what they say to keep from you and others getting hurt。 It lays out how to help and ho This is a book that can help churches and other establishments to help in the human trafficking issue we have in our nation and worldwide。 It is especially helpful for faith based communities to get involved and become organized with local law enforcement to help with this out of control problem。 This book is very good at laying things out in how it should be done, working with law enforcement and listening to what they say to keep from you and others getting hurt。 It lays out how to help and how to do it safely。 Thank you to #NetGalley and the publishers IVP Academic , and the authors, for the opportunity to read and review #EndingHumanTrafficking with my honest thoughts and opinions。 。。。more
MoShelfLove,
From a human trafficking literature perspective, this book does a great job of breaking things down and giving practical tips of how to move forwardFrom a Christian literature perspective, while this book does a good job of pointing out where churches are lacking, it also brings in scripture to point out that human trafficking in not a new phenomenon。

"Ending Human Trafficking: A Handbook of Strategies for the Church Today" was written by Shayne Moore, Sandra Morgan, and Kimberly McOwen Yim。 This book was written for church leaders and members who are interested in effectively helping those who have found themselves entangled in the world of human trafficking。 The authors use the 6 P's to summarize their work: prevention, protection, prosecution, partnership, policy, and prayer。 With each "P", helpful tips and anecdotal evidence is given。 I a "Ending Human Trafficking: A Handbook of Strategies for the Church Today" was written by Shayne Moore, Sandra Morgan, and Kimberly McOwen Yim。 This book was written for church leaders and members who are interested in effectively helping those who have found themselves entangled in the world of human trafficking。 The authors use the 6 P's to summarize their work: prevention, protection, prosecution, partnership, policy, and prayer。 With each "P", helpful tips and anecdotal evidence is given。 I also appreciated the transparency from the authors, and their own real life stories。This book would be very helpful for church leaders wondering how to help this needy population。 Thanks to NetGalley for the ARC。 All opinions are my own。 。。。more
