How many slaves work for you? Take the test and see what kind of impact you have on slavery. You will be amazed!
"I have stated several times that these new forms of slavery – human trafficking, forced labour, prostitution, organ trade – are very serious crimes, a wound on the body of contemporary humanity.
The whole of society is called to grow in this awareness, especially with regard to national and international legislation, in order to prosecute the traffickers and redirect their unjust gains to the rehabilitation of victims."
Pope Francis, Address to the Participants in the Plenary Session of the Pontifical Academy of Social Sciences, Saturday, 18 April 2015

Christian therapy is different from other types of treatment because it’s based on the principles of Christianity. If you decide to work with a Christian therapist, you can expect a faith-based approach to resolving problems and learning how to communicate effectively. In addition to helping you address personal issues, a Christian therapist should aim to help you have a better relationship with Christ. As you heal from the hurts of life, you’ll be reminded of God’s love and grace, making your faith even stronger. A person who is very strongly aligned in their faith may seek therapy with a Christian counselor because it can enhance their therapeutic experience.
