For Immediate Release (TAMPA, FL) – It was a presentation on human trafficking made during a Bible study that changed the trajectory of Ted Greenfield’s life. When he learned that children and women were being bought and sold in the U.S., he felt impressed by God to do something about it. In his new book from Aneko Press, “GOD IS IN THIS FIGHT: How God Made a Way to Rescue Human Trafficking Survivors,” Greenfield chronicles the hurdles as well as the miraculous interventions that — quite literally — got his nonprofit rescue organization, Invisible Angels, off the ground.

Through raw storytelling and firsthand accounts, Greenfield pulls back the curtain on the dark underbelly of human trafficking in the United States — a crisis that reaches far beyond major cities into quiet towns like Albany, Georgia and Eau Claire, Wisconsin.

“To traffickers, each human life — man, woman, boy, girl — is about a $200,000-a-year commodity,” says Greenfield. “Victims are raped between eight and twelve times per day. That’s the price of bondage in the U.S. People think this is a foreign problem, but all the survivors we transport are Americans — from kids under 10 to adults in their 40s — trafficked by someone they know, often a family member.”

In the book, Greenfield shares how his background in special education, media production, and aviation culminated in the founding of Invisible Angels, as he quickly discovered that transportation for victims was the missing link in many recovery scenarios.

“When survivors are recovered, they need to be taken to a safe house far away from where the trafficking took place,” says Greenfield. “For their safety and security, they need to be taken to a completely new environment. Survivors are typically off the grid at a very early age. They don’t have any identification which makes commercial travel impossible, they don’t have any family to help them, and they don’t have financial resources. The logistics of these rescues are crucial. We need to be in and out within ten minutes without seeming rushed or concerned. Traffickers can — and will — reengage, even in public places like federal airport properties. We need to be quick, focused, and invisible.”

Invisible Angels is the only Part 135 carrier specifically focused on human trafficking recovery (FAA certification IAGA486A), ensuring every rescue meets rigorous FAA safety standards. Every rescue flight includes a backpack with new clothes, a journal, a Bible, scripture cards, and a handwritten letter from a prayer team member. “Sometimes, it’s the first thing these survivors can call their own,” says Greenfield.

In “GOD IS IN THIS FIGHT,” Greenfield recounts divine moments, such as the unexpected donation of a $250,000 aircraft even before his nonprofit had a bank account or business cards. He also shares the heart-wrenching and hope-filled stories of survivors — like the child trafficked by his father and the teen girl whose desperate jail-cell prayer led to deliverance.

Greenfield says each rescue costs between $2,500 and $5,000 and is fueled by small monthly donations. While he plans to expand the fleet and reach of Invisible Angels in the near future, Greenfield hopes the stories he shares in the book will remind people to seek God’s will and be attentive to His promptings.

“When God calls you,” Greenfield says, “He doesn’t start with your strengths. He starts with your surrender. John 14:13-14 says: ‘And I will do whatever you ask in my name, so that the Father may be glorified in the Son. You may ask me for anything in my name, and I will do it.’ Some may read this verse as a personal guarantee from God for a genie in the bottle. We often don’t fully understand the ‘in my name’ part. The last thing Jesus is talking about here is a bottomless credit card for answered prayer. Rather these verses are an invitation to alignment. If you are aligned with God’s will, He will give you whatever you need to accomplish it. I have seen that happen over and over again, and that is why I know God is in this fight against human trafficking. I have watched Him move mountains to rescue people who have been discarded and forgotten by society.”

“GOD IS IN THIS FIGHT: How God Made a Way to Rescue Human Trafficking Survivors” releases September 1, 2025 through Aneko Press. All book proceeds will benefit Invisible Angels.
