Our guest this week is Doug Bennett who is the Creator of Magdalene Hope an organization with a mission to fight and end sex trafficking. In 2016 Doug was awarded the Individual Humanitarian award by the Bakersfield Chamber of Commerce.

One day Doug went to church. And the speaker called Doug out of the audience and said, “You are going to be a pastor for Bikers, Prostitutes, and Drug Dealers.”

Doug thought the guy was completely crazy.
