GETTING CREATIVE & COURAGEOUS FOR JUSTICE- What happens when a woman refuses to ignore injustice and instead uses everything in her hands—her story, her skills, and her platform—to make a difference? In this conversation with Christina Zorich, actress, producer, and director of the powerful documentary The New Abolitionists, we get to witness what it looks like when passion, purpose, and calling collide. Christina shares the personal journey that led her into filmmaking, the heart-wrenching realities she encountered while exposing human sex trafficking, and the redemptive thread of hope she found woven through it all. This episode is for any woman who’s ever wondered if her gifts really matter or if her story could be used for something bigger than herself. Christina's life is a reminder that you don’t have to be loud to make impact—you just have to be willing.
Key Takeaways
-
Your gifts are not random. Christina’s background became the very tool God used to illuminate the darkness and give voice to the voiceless.
-
Obedience opens doors. Her yes to one small step of faith led to international impact and collaborations she couldn’t have orchestrated on her own.
-
You are not too late. No matter what your past holds or how unclear your next steps feel, God can use your surrendered story to change lives.
StoryMaker Challenge:
Reflect on this question-
If you could use your voice, your gifts, or your experiences to shine a light on one area of injustice or need in the world—what would it be? Journal your response, pray into it, and ask God what small step of obedience He may be inviting you to take. Then take it.
