Call to Justice
In a recent episode of the Freedom Challenge Online Podcast, host Tracy Daugherty sat down with Andrew Ginsberg, the newly appointed President and CEO of Operation Mobilization (OM), for a deeply moving and insightful conversation. As a father, a man of faith, and a passionate advocate for justice, Andrew brings a unique perspective to OM’s global mission to reach the least reached.
A Journey of Faith and Leadership
Andrew’s story is one of transformation—from a career in biotech and pharmaceuticals to full-time ministry. Raised in a Jewish household and later coming to faith through InterVarsity in college, Andrew now leads one of the world’s largest mission organizations. His heart for the marginalized, especially women and children, is rooted in both personal experience and biblical conviction.
“I grew up with a strong mom and married a strong woman,” Andrew shared. “Empowering women isn’t just a cause—it’s part of my life.”
The Power of the Father’s Heart
This special Father’s Day episode highlights the importance of men stepping into roles of advocacy and support. Andrew, a father of three daughters, speaks candidly about how his family has shaped his passion for women’s empowerment. He also reflects on the biblical call to care for the marginalized, drawing from scriptures like Proverbs 31, Galatians 5, and 1 Corinthians 12.
“We’re called to love our neighbors—all of them,” he said. “And that includes the enslaved, the powerless, and the forgotten.”
Freedom Challenge: A Movement of Purpose
Tracy and Andrew explore how the Freedom Challenge—a movement of women taking on physical challenges to raise awareness and funds—embodies the mission of OM. These challenges are more than symbolic; they are acts of intercession, solidarity, and empowerment.
“Not everyone is called to break down a brothel door,” Andrew noted. “But everyone can do something—pray, give, advocate. And that matters.”
A Call to Action
As the conversation wrapped up, Andrew offered a powerful reminder: “It was for freedom that Christ set us free. Let’s not re-enslave ourselves with burdens we were never meant to carry. Let’s do this work with God, not just for Him.”
Whether you’re a longtime supporter or just discovering the Freedom Challenge, this episode is a call to live boldly, love deeply, and act justly.
