evangelical 360°

What if the everyday products you buy are fueling modern-day slavery? Join us on evangelical 360 as we sit down with Anu George Canjanathoppil, CEO of the International Justice Mission of Canada, to explore a reality many of us overlook: the insidious presence of slavery in today's world. Anu's harrowing personal journey and dedication to justice shed light on the staggering $49 billion Canadians unknowingly spend on slave-produced goods annually. Through powerful storytelling, Anu redefines our understanding of slavery, highlighting the dire conditions faced by those trapped in bonded labor and the urgent need for justice and protection for the most vulnerable.
Discover the pivotal role of partnerships and faith in combating sex and labor trafficking as Anu shares how International Justice Mission collaborates with ministries, organizations, and NGOs worldwide. Learn how faith-based motivations drive their work without imposing beliefs on others and how consumer awareness and legislative changes, like Canada's Modern Slavery Act, are crucial in this fight. This episode challenges listeners to rethink their definitions of community and neighbor, urging collective action against normalized violence and injustice inspired by the example of Jesus. Join us for an eye-opening and empowering conversation that calls for global responsibility and change.
