The PNW Shine Seminar equips Jesus followers with a passion for social justice and practical knowledge of how to properly support survivors of the sex trade and human trafficking. We aim for every student to be empowered in their unique abilities in contributing to the abolishment of modern day slavery, be voices of hope in their spheres of influence, and be advocates for Biblical justice and for the marginalized. This course explores the global sex trade and the Christian response. We aspire to offer excellent, Jesus-centered training to students through teaching, spiritual reflection and practical application. Students will be taught by experts and will grow in understanding the core elements of the sex trade and human trafficking; while increasing in compassion and humility toward its survivors. Students will be introduced to Biblical, person-centered, trauma-informed and survivor-empowering care, and also be able to advocate for justice with a biblical worldview; being equipped to “Shine” God’s heart for justice within their own communities.
