I originally had a humorous post scheduled for today, but after seeing the movie Sound of Freedom, I felt this post needed to be shared. The movie is about children being freed from sex trafficking and Tim Ballard who started Operation Underground Railroad, which is an organization that frees children from sex trafficking.
The message of the movie is hugely important. The movie is well acted. The movie had five years of obstacles to be released into theaters. Why would corporate America not want it released when over the past five years there has been so much garbage released?
The reason I went to see it in the theater, after not having been in one for years, and not waiting for it to come out in a streaming service is because I believe good box office for the movie sends a message.
I loved the line from the movie of why Tim Ballard does what he does, “Because God’s children are not for sale.”
It is sobering to think that there are more slaves in the world right now then ever before and many of them are children victimized by sex traffickers. The country that has the largest number of children trafficked into? The USA. Let that sink in for a minute.
I think of what Jesus said about those who harm children in Matthew 18:6
If anyone causes one of these little ones—those who believe in me—to stumble, it would be better for them to have a large millstone hung around their neck and to be drowned in the depths of the sea.
Please go see the movie in the theater.
Thank you for reading. God Bless.
