Jef­frey Ten­nant, Lived-Expert, Author, Sur­vivor of child sex traf­fick­ing. Career in aero­space and after retir­ing, he has made a sig­nif­i­cant change in his life by serv­ing oth­ers through min­istry and begin­ning a writ­ing career. The min­istry voca­tion came nat­u­ral­ly from vol­un­teer­ing through­out his life, but the writ­ing career was birthed from detail­ing the strug­gle to heal from the pain of trau­ma brought about by being sex traf­ficked. The desire to help oth­ers trav­el­ing the same road as he has, led to the writ­ing and pub­lish­ing of his first book, “The Way of Escape: The True Sto­ry of a Teenage Boy’s Mirac­u­lous Escape from Sex Traf­fick­ers and a Heal­ing Jour­ney of Recovery”
