Book Description

The Orphans of Siem Reap, Cambodia, made a lasting impression upon me when I met them during my 2003 visit to Angkor Wat, Cambodia. I have not encountered anything sadder or more disturbing than seeing Khmer mothers and fathers selling their little girls’ virginity to Western pedophiles. These little girls, some as young as five years of age, are being exposed to the transmission of HIV. Often, this results in the murder of these young girls after they contracted AIDS from these men. I wrote a capstone-research paper for my Master of Arts in Theological Studies - Trinity Evangelical Divinity School - Class of 2020. From a biblical perspective, I researched how to restore these traumatized child-victims once they have been rescued from pedophile brothels in Cambodia. After graduation, I turned my capstone-research into a book called, ‘The Least of These.’(Defend the weak and the fatherless; uphold the cause of the poor and the oppressed. Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.– Psalm 82:3-4, NIV) *****ABOUT THE AUTHOR*****Rev.
