Our Cross To Bear: Abused Women And Children A Look At Human Trafficking

When did slavery end? Was it in 1863, when President Lincoln issued the Emancipation Proclamation? Or was it in 1865, when the Thirteenth Amendment was ratified? The answer is neither. In fact, slavery has not ended. Not even in the United States. In Our Cross to Bear, Charles Linhart embarks on a frank analysis of human trafficking. It's a practice that persists in so-called civilized countries despite what you might have heard-or more accurately, not heard. As a Christian, Linhart is unable to ignore this problem and urges his readers to face the difficult truth. By sharing real stories of children and women who have been victims of human trafficking, Linhart brings startling clarity to this dark practice. Though some of these victims are delivered from their circumstances by acts of God, many more remain enslaved due to inaction and corruption. The enslavement of women and children isn't just the problem of the enslaved and their families-it's on all of us. In short, it's our cross to bear.
