Episode 40 of The LOVE JUSTICE PODCAST: "What If It Was the Person You Love Most?" | hosted by Hannah Munn | LoveJustice.NGO
3w ago00:46:44Tap to summarizeHuman trafficking can feel distant—something that happens somewhere else to someone else. But what if the next person at risk was the person you love most? In this episode of the Love Justice Podcast, Hannah Munn is joined by John Molineux, Founder and CEO of Love Justice International, and Aksha Molineux, Regional Steward for Nepal, for a deeply personal and perspective-shifting conversation about injustice, compassion, and responsibility. Together, they explore how moving from distant awareness to personal conviction transforms the way we see—and respond to—the world’s greatest injustices. Through powerful stories and lived experiences, John and Aksha reflect on when injustice became personal for them—and how that shift continues to fuel a life of sacrificial love in action. They unpack the reality that none of us choose where we’re born, how vulnerability is often inherited rather than earned, and why human trafficking thrives at the intersection of poverty, inequality, and lack of opportunity. This conversation also wrestles honestly with compassion fatigue, the temptation to look away, and the tension between feeling overwhelmed and taking meaningful action. John shares why a “broken heart” is not something to avoid, but something that can form us—and how that brokenness, when surrendered, becomes resolve.If you’ve ever wondered what your role is in the face of injustice—or how to move from emotion to action—this episode is for you.

Episode 39 of The LOVE JUSTICE PODCAST: "Sacred Pace: Why Slowing Down Can Save Your Calling" - with Terry Looper | hosted by Hannah Munn | LoveJustice.NGO
Feb 1801:09:05Tap to summarizeIn this honest and hope-filled episode, Terry Looper—business leader, author of Sacred Pace, and longtime mentor to Christian executives—joins Hannah Munn to share the story behind his dramatic burnout, his spiritual awakening, and the countercultural rhythm God used to restore his life. Terry reflects on the hidden idols of success, the spiritual danger of “speeding,” and the painful but redemptive journey of learning to surrender control. He unpacks the four-step framework he calls Sacred Pace—consult your friend Jesus, gather the facts, watch the circumstances, and get neutral—offering listeners a practical way to discern God’s voice without being driven by pride, fear, or people-pleasing. This conversation holds powerful parallels to the work of Love Justice International, where justice work can never be sustained through frantic striving. Just as Love Justice intervenes before exploitation occurs, Terry’s message points to another kind of prevention: slowing down before burnout, protecting the soul before collapse, and learning to operate at God’s pace so mission remains rooted in love—not pressure. With wisdom forged through pain and humility, Terry reminds us that when we surrender, we don’t lose—we finally begin to flourish.

Episode 38 of The LOVE JUSTICE Podcast: "Why Forgiveness Comes First in the Fight for Justice " - with Matt Smallbone | hosted by Hannah Munn | LoveJustice.NGO
Feb 1101:00:17Tap to summarizeIn this timely and deeply challenging episode, Matt Smallbone—Lead Pastor of Church of the City (Downtown Nashville)—joins Hannah Munn and John Molineux for a conversation that cuts straight to the heart of sustainable justice work: forgiveness. Matt unpacks why unforgiveness quietly shrinks our world, distorts our perception, and eventually makes meaningful impact impossible. Together, the group explores what Scripture teaches about forgiveness as a daily discipline—not a one-time event—and why forgiveness is not the same as reconciliation. Through the parable of the unmerciful servant and the practice of praying the Lord’s Prayer, listeners are invited into a vision of freedom that is both deeply biblical and profoundly practical. This message carries direct parallels to the work of Love Justice International. Just as monitors intervene before exploitation begins, this episode highlights a different kind of prevention: guarding the heart from bitterness, pride, and resentment—the very things that can derail teams, destroy community, and sabotage long-term mission. Whether you’re serving in justice ministry, leadership, or everyday community, this episode is an invitation to release the debt, reclaim your peace, and step into the flourishing life Jesus intends.

Episode 37 of The LOVE JUSTICE Podcast: "Healthy Homes as the Foundation for Justice Work" - with Rebekah Lyons | hosted by Hannah Munn | LoveJustice.NGO
Feb 400:33:42Tap to summarizeIn this deeply encouraging episode, Rebekah Lyons—author, speaker, and co-host of the Rhythms for Life podcast—joins Hannah Munn and special co-host Cambri Driskell to explore a truth often overlooked in justice work: that sustainable impact begins at home. Rebekah shares how emotional health, marriage unity, and embodied rhythms are not separate from calling—but foundational to it. Drawing from her own journey through motherhood, hidden seasons, anxiety, and vocational clarity, she offers practical wisdom for couples and individuals carrying heavy burdens on behalf of the vulnerable. This conversation resonates deeply with the mission of Love Justice International, where frontline work against trafficking demands not only courage and excellence, but also resilience, repair, and spiritual wholeness. Just as Love Justice monitors stand in high-stakes spaces to protect the exploited, Rebekah reminds us that those who fight for justice must also fight for their marriages, their margins, and their emotional integrity. Honest, hopeful, and richly pastoral, this episode is an invitation to build lives—and homes—that can endure the long road of justice.

Jan 2100:55:50Tap to summarizeIn this compelling episode, Ashleigh Chapman—human rights lawyer, social entrepreneur, and founder of multiple anti-trafficking initiatives—joins Hannah Munn to share the story of discovering her calling at just eleven years old and spending a lifetime responding to it with courage, innovation, and faith.

From launching global tools like Engage Together, Justice U, and Freedom Council, to pioneering a B Corp model that scales life-saving solutions through innovation, Ashleigh unpacks how systems, collaboration, and excellence can disrupt trafficking before it begins. This conversation challenges listeners to rethink justice not as awareness alone, but as responsibility—and invites each of us to see our skills, professions, and communities as essential to protecting the vulnerable.

Episode 34 of The LOVE JUSTICE Podcast: "The Rope Runner: When Obedience Creates a Platform for Justice" - with Marissa Groenewald | hosted by Hannah Munn | LoveJustice.NGO
Jan 700:39:48Tap to summarizeIn this remarkable episode, Marissa “The Rope Runner” joins the podcast to share how an unexpected injury—and a simple act of obedience—sparked a global platform for justice. What began as a creative fitness experiment evolved into something far greater: running marathons and ultra-marathons while jump roping to raise awareness for human trafficking. Marissa reflects on the “divine download” that connected her unusual calling to Love Justice International, and how visibility, vulnerability, and perseverance opened doors she never could have planned. Through stories of endurance, solitude, and faith, she reveals how God uses what’s already in our hands—no matter how small or unconventional—to protect the vulnerable and inspire others to say yes. This episode is a powerful invitation to rethink influence, faithfulness, and impact. Whether your platform feels big or small, Marissa’s story reminds us that obedience—not scale—is what God multiplies.

Episode 32 of the LOVE JUSTICE podcast: Stories Edition | "A Survivor’s Story and Journey Through Healing" | hosted by Paula Cornell
Dec 1000:33:12Tap to summarizeIn this episode, Paula Cornell interviews Isami, a survivor of human trafficking, as well as a public speaker, a content creator, weight lifter, aerialist, cat lover, and self proclaimed amateur human, professional weirdo. Isami shares her journey from witnessing trafficking as a flight attendant, to realizing years later that she herself had survived familial trafficking, to finding healing, faith, and a voice that now helps others step out of shame and into freedom. Listen in on this powerful conversation. Paula Cornell is from Seattle and joined Love Justice International as a writer in 2021. Prior to joining Love Justice, Paula spent several years volunteering with Youth With A Mission, where she heard and witnessed incredible stories from around the world of healing and redemption in the face of injustice. Seeing how stories like these could inspire hope, bring understanding, and spur people into action, she began to dream of how stories could change the world. This dream eventually led her to return to college to pursue a journalism degree from the University of Washington and delivered her into the hands of Love Justice, where she is happily learning to write (and now podcast) with an awesome team of people for a cause that she cares deeply about.

Dec 300:49:29Tap to summarizeIn this foundational episode, Love Justice leaders John Molineux and Kirk Schweitzer join host Hannah Munn to explore the DNA of Love Justice’s work—how decades of mistakes, breakthroughs, and humility crystallized into our core competency: searching out the people, places, and tools to maximize mission impact.
