You’ll meet IJM investigators who bring rescue to young girls sold into prostitution and the aftercare specialists who assist them in reclaiming their lives. The odds have long been against the poor in India, but IJM is changing that. Indeed, miracles are happening in South Asia – and in this podcast you’ll also hear about those taking place in IJM’s offices in the Philippines, Thailand and Rwanda.

Sara Groves - IJM Artist Partner
Sara Groves, a former high school teacher in her native Rosemont, MN, burst onto the gospel scene at the dawn of the new millennium with her fresh vocals and spiritual songwriting. She's been compared to the likes of Shawn Colvin and Rich Mullins, however, Groves defines her own musical demeanor. Her music spans from its contemporary Christian roots and molds into delicate pop. Signed to Epic, Groves issued her debut, Conversations, in early 2001. Songs from Add to the Beauty (CCM 2005 Album of the Year) and recent release Tell Me What you Know reveal Groves’ heart for the poor and oppressed, inspired by her partnership with International Justice Mission. Groves orchestrated the 2008 Art*Music*Justice Tour with other notable artists to inspire new advocates to seek justice and rescue the oppressed.
