If you haven’t already watched the movie “Sound of Freedom” then you really should. The movie circles around the abduction of two kids from a single father in South America who are sold into child sex trafficking and finally rescued by a special agent gone rogue. But not all cases end up like this. Most kids are never rescued!



Destiny Rescue is an organization committed to rescuing children sold into child sex trafficking and giving them hope of a better life. How dangerous is it to be involved in such a specialized mission? In this conversation with Michaela Jones, former member of child sex trafficking rescue team at Destiny Rescue, we peel back the reasons why child sex trafficking is the fastest growing international crime network in the world today and Michaela’s first-hand exposure to rescuing kids sold into child sex trafficking. It’s a conversation you don’t want to miss!

The "Black Saturday" bushfires were a series of bushfires that either ignited or were already burning across the Australian state of Victoria on Saturday, 7 February 2009, and were one of Australia's all-time worst bushfire disasters. The fires occurred during extreme bushfire weather conditions and resulted in Australia's highest-ever loss of human life from a bushfire, with 173 fatalities. Over 3500 homes were burned to the ground leaving many people homeless as a result. More than 1 million acres of land were burned up.



Deputy Prime Minister Julia Gillard described Black Saturday as "a tragedy beyond belief, beyond precedent and beyond words … one of the darkest days in Australia’s peacetime history."



And at the centre of this disaster was Lyn Gunter, mayor of the Murrindindi council where the bushfires occurred. In this emotional interview that takes us back to the devastation that occurred in the now 15th year anniversary of the tragedy, we discover how Lyn's past prepared her to take on a role of this nature, how she pulled herself together to lead in a time of crisis, and the lessons she learned looking back on the event. You won't want to miss it! I'll see you there...

In this podcast I interview much loved leader, Robert ("Bob") Eales, on his handling of some extremely challenging news from the doctor that he only had a few more days to live...

We do a deep dive into Bob's thought process, his unique ability to find peace in the midst of the storm, his regrets, and an intimate revealing of his hopes for the future.

Some key takeaways are invaluable lessons learned by Bob from over 30 years in active church leadership, how to handle difficult people, managing conflict, and Bob's motto for living each day to the full.
