The Fight Against Sex Trafficking
by Arthur Goldberg, Church Militant:
Sexual trafficking is a booming industry, whether we speak of highly developed countries in the Americas or in Europe, or in less developed countries within Asia and Africa. Several projects or individuals around the world are speaking up to affirmatively do something to stop the escalation of sexual exploitation and to follow the biblical injunction of Proverbs 31:8–9. There we learn of our obligation to “Speak up for those who cannot speak for themselves; ensure justice for those being crushed. Yes, speak up for the poor and helpless, and see that they get justice.”
Two situations profiled at Funding Morality follow the biblical injunction by seeking to raise funds through a unique, Bible-based, crowd-funding web platform.
The first situation involves a highly decorated London police officer, Jon Wedger. After discovering a major child prostitution ring in Metropolitan London, Wedger attempted to bring the perpetrators to justice. Unfortunately, because of the influence of those involved in the ring, the police chose to cover up his investigation.
