When I saw the movie Caged No More, I had no way of knowing the serious content this movie would bring to light.  While I knew the movie was brought to us by the co-producers of God’s Not Dead and knew it would be moving, it wasn’t until the plot began to unfold that I realized this wasn’t just a movie.  No, it happens every day – whether we like to think of the possibility of it or not. It’s out there; sex-trafficking.

I have two precious daughters that, due to their age and limited exposure to the world, think everyone is honest, true, and would not harm a hair on their head.  That couldn’t be further from the truth in this cruel world.  I’ve talked with them about how just because we’re good people does not mean that everyone around us is nor do they always have the best of intentions toward us.  I’m honestly not trying to scare them or make them leery of everyone they come in contact with, but they need to know the dangers that are lurking in the dark shadows of this cold world.  They are so innocent at this point in their lives, yet some where someone is seeking to harm young girls just like my daughters.  This movie hit so close to home because I DO have two beautiful daughters who are my heart and soul, and I try with all my might to shelter and protect them.

In this movie, two young girls are taken and sold into sex-trafficking.  The thought of it is purely sickening, yet the reality is this is someone’s life!  How horrible to think of what they are enduring in dingy living spaces, dimly lit with hands of strangers touching their bodies violating them.  Oh, dear God!  Their innocence – stolen!

Several of my blogging friends have mentioned sex-trafficking on their blogs, in their Facebook messages, etc. in an effort to bring this topic that is only whispered about out into board daylight.  It isn’t someone else’s problem. It’s OUR problem as a whole.  We shouldn’t rest until every person that was forced into this form of slavery is freed!

Help us break the silence!

Please …

There are innocent victims that need you to be their voice.  Help free them.  You may think it doesn’t matter, you may not feel you have a big following to make this plea to, but every one that gets to talking HELPS bring light to this often avoided topic of conversation.  We need your help, and we need you to be their voice.

If you haven’t seen the movie, I encourage you to stop into your local Family Christian and pick up a copy.  Don’t let that be the only thing that you do, though.  Remember, it isn’t “just” a movie.  It is someone’s life!

If you suspect or know of someone that is involved in sex trafficking, please visit the National Human Trafficking Resource Center.  You can report a tip, and you can even request services.

Help spread the word.  Someone out there NEEDS your help!

Women are not objects to be lusted after, groped on, raped, beaten, used, abused, etc.  We are not here for anyone’s pleasure, certainly not against our wishes!

Speak up and speak out about this!

While I did receive a copy of this movie in exchange for a review, I feel passionately about this.  I hope you will see the urgency in this as well and vow to help do something about it!
