“Growing up, her dad told her ‘you are dirty, you are shameful, you are only good to be raped.’ That would mess with a grown woman, let alone a three year old.” - Tiffany

Abandoned at birth, Tiffany eventually found her hope and true identity in Jesus Christ. The gospel now compels her to lead other Christian women into brothels and strip clubs in order to serve and share the love of Jesus with women trapped in sex trafficking and the commercial sex industry.

"With Jesus in the Strip Club"

"I'm not a physician, but that little girl was just a hair's breadth away from shock. Her mother said that she hadn't let go of her in days. The blank look scared the daylights out of me."

Being a veteran, Tom has witnessed his share of tragedy and heartache, but what he encountered in Moore was something entirely different.

Going Back

“I was basically like a sex slave and a mistress for him.”

After being exposed to pornography at a young age, Lorraine found herself wanting to live a life of worldly pleasure. For years she tried to find her fulfillment in sex and in men. Desperate for real love, Lorraine quit college in order to have an affair with a man in Sweden for several months. When that relationship painfully ended, Lorraine was left at her breaking point, searching for a way out.

This story was recorded in April 2013 at The Gospel Coalition Conference in Orlando, FL.

Fiercely Loved

“…in that moment we began to mourn, and not mourn our daughter but mourn our lives.  Mourn this reality of what life was going to be like.  Who knew how long this suffering would go on?  Who knew the type of care we were going to go through?”

With cancer comes sorrow, and the Beisels share their story of journeying through the cancer of their baby daughter, and how they have been able to find purpose in the midst of mourning.
