On August 7th, 2019, Cyntoia Brown Long was released from the Tennessee Prison for Women.

It was 13 years after she had been sentenced to life without parole for the murder of a man to whom she had been sex-trafficked.

In this special episode, Cyntoia tells an uncensored account of the great personal and systemic brokenness which led to her imprisonment, and the dramatic, at times hard-to-believe nature of the grace and providence which brought her to faith and ultimate release.

Please be advised this episode contains details upsetting to some listeners, including references to sexual assault and trafficking. Additional resources are available at NO MORE.
