In this powerful conversation, Tracy Daugherty sits down with Freedom Sister Wheeler Fisher, who has spent nearly a decade walking alongside women impacted by trafficking. From her early days in Kansas to frontline work with survivors in San Diego, Wheeler shares what advocacy really looks like behind the scenes—both the heartbreak and the hope.

You’ll hear how one encounter changed everything, why choosing to “show up for the one” matters more than fixing everything, and how healing can look slow, messy, and deeply beautiful.

This episode also offers practical encouragement for anyone engaging in this space—how to stay tender, care for your soul, and continue showing up without becoming overwhelmed or numb.

You don’t have to solve everything, but you can still make a difference.

  • Why Freedom Challenge events are experiences, not just events
  • The power of corporate prayer and worship in the fight for freedom
  • How focusing on one face instead of statistics changes everything
  • Why prevention begins with teaching intrinsic, God-given worth
  • How worship becomes a spiritual battleground where God brings victory

In this powerful episode, Freedom Challenge Director Tracy Daugherty sits down with Teresa Vardilos and Jennifer Lemburg to reflect on their recent mission trip to Pattaya, Thailand, where they served alongside the Tamar Center, a long-standing ministry supporting women affected by sexual exploitation.

Teresa and Jennifer share what it was like to move from knowing the statistics to standing face-to-face with the realities of human trafficking. Through stories of bar outreach, prayer walks on Soi 6, haircuts, gel nail classes, and deep relational ministry, they reveal how God meets people through consistency, compassion, and presence—not forced transformation.

This conversation explores the emotional and spiritual weight of witnessing injustice, the importance of preparation and prayer, and how anger, grief, hope, and faith can coexist. It’s a raw, honest look at what it means to say yes when God invites us into hard places—and how that yes can transform both the giver and the receiver.

Ruth and Alyse, Freedom Challenge team members leading our mission trip to Thailand, reflect on the realities facing women, men, and children in vulnerable situations, especially in the aftermath of COVID and the increased desperation fueling exploitation.

This episode is not about information alone—it is an invitation to cry out. To groan. To intercede. To see people not as labels, but as sons and daughters deeply loved by God.

Together, we pray for:

  • Women exploited in the sex industry
  • Men caught in cycles of brokenness and demand
  • A Freedom Challenge team of nine women preparing to travel to Thailand to help serve Tamar Center, a project we support
  • Organizations like Tamar Center working faithfully on the ground

We talk honestly about anger, grief, forgiveness, and justice—and how God invites us to pray with His heart and His authority.

As you listen, we encourage you to pause, pray, worship, and join us in standing in the gap.

Together, they break down what trafficking truly looks like today: sexual exploitation, forced labor, domestic servitude, child marriage, organ harvesting, online exploitation, and the rise of scam centers. They talk openly about the vulnerabilities traffickers target — poverty, displacement, age, lack of opportunity — and the spiritual darkness driving this brutal industry.

But woven through the heaviness is deep hope.

Tracy and Jessica share the story of how Freedom Challenge began, the four pillars that shape the work (Prevent, Develop, Rescue, Restore), and how OM projects around the world are changing lives — from TrafficWise trainings in Africa to safe houses and long‑term restoration programs globally.

This conversation reminds every listener:
 You cannot fix 50 million… but you can move toward one.
And when women pray, give, go, and challenge themselves on behalf of others, God multiplies it.

They also share exciting ways to get involved:
 • The upcoming virtual global prayer event on February 8
• Freedom Challenge USA and Africa 2026 challenges
• Opportunities for short‑ and long‑term mission work 

If you want to understand the depth of the issue AND the depth of God’s response through His people, this episode is for you.

Disturb us, Lord, when

To venture on wilder seas
Where storms will show Your mastery;
Where losing sight of land,
We shall find the stars. Amen.

This episode gives insight into how the intense environment of a challenge creates and strengthens relationships between older and younger women. Women leave the events with life-long friendships they wouldn’t of pursued without this experience, and mothers and daughters who participate together build a stronger bond.

Excerpts from the episode:
"We had one woman on the team who was certainly several decades older than a group of us young girls. I remember we were gleaning wisdom from her the entire time asking about her marriage, asking about her family, her life, the way that she lived and the decision she made." - Drew Walsh

"What I remember most was the help and the tender care, being almost 73 and feeling a little bit wobbly and in some cases a fall risk, of the two [younger] women coming alongside to help me cross a river. That that was an encouragement to me and a fond memory." - Barbara Christensen

]]> "A lady came to us at the age of 58. She said she didn't have a chance to go to school or a chance to have a child in her life. She said women would laugh at her, they say she's barren, and has no skills. I told her Tabitha is made for people like you. She started doing the sewing training and she never missed a day or a class. Last year, The Tabitha ministry gave her a machine and she uses it from home... she told me she will use it to make clothes for the fellow poor people in the community and when she sells something she wants to send somebody to school. I said wow God, I think you have done something in the life of this lady. When I look at that I see we have not wasted our time" - Pharen Mulusa 

The Freedom Challenge supports ministries that Prevent, Develop, Rescue, and Restore exploited or vulnerable women and children. For this episode, Pharen Mulusa, the Director of the Tabitha Ministry in Zambia, joins to discuss how their ministry helps Prevent exploitation and Develop women and children.
