Carl Ralston is a former businessman from Ohio who was divinely led to combat child sex trafficking. Carl shares a poignant testimony about how a vision trip to Thailand in 2003 led him to start Remember Nhu, an organization dedicated to preventing children from entering the sex trade. Remember Nhu has now expanded to 20 countries, preventing over 15,000 children from being trafficked. Carl recounts his personal journey of faith, the challenges faced, and the divine moments that guided him. The episode also explores how Carl balanced education, family restoration, and global expansion while deeply emphasizing the role of divine guidance and prayer.
