About this episode

This episode focuses on intercessory prayer for vulnerable individuals in Thailand, particularly in Pattaya, amidst the challenges posed by COVID-19.

In this prayer-focused episode, we invite you into a sacred space of intercession for Thailand—specifically Pattaya, often known as the unofficial sex tourism capital of the world. 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.
