Child sexual abuse material (CSAM), which is legally known as child pornography, is a global pandemic.

Unfortunately, the United States remains one of the largest producers and consumers of child abuse content in the world.

Today on the Strong By Design podcast we are honored to have Bryan Weight from Operation Light Shine. Their main purpose is to create, fund, develop and equip INTERCEPT Task Forces that are working tirelessly to rid the country of child exploitation material, child sexual abuse and human trafficking.

In recent years this mission has gained some traction with advocates like Tim Tebow and movies like Sound of Freedom to help put the spotlight on a very real and disturbing truth. Sexual predators are out their and we all need to stand vigilantly to protect our children.

We thank Bryan, his father Jack and his entire OLS team for their strength, boldness, and willingness to fight for our children. 

Matthew 5:16 reads, “In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.”

 

Operation Light Shine plea…

Help shine a light of hope into the dark underworld of human trafficking and child sexual exploitation.

 

We Need You To Stand With Us (WATCH NOW)

 

“The US is the #1 producer and consumer of child sexual abuse material.” -Bryan Weight
