From the website, "Although we might not want to admit it, many of us are unaware of the terrible injustice that is happening all over the world. Human trafficking, sex slavery, inhuman labor practices, and unfair trading is everywhere—even in our own community.  The purpose of this conference is to inform you of such injustice, and empower you to make a difference in the world by combating injustice. Speakers from organizations that are passionate about the freedom the Gospel brings will be addressing how justice is worship that matters to God."
