Inhaltsangabe

Approximately 10,000 people are released from prison each week in the U.S. and up to 66% return to prison within 3 years because of new crimes or parole violations.

What is the answer?

GET FREE and STAY FREE - Stories of inmates who found freedom inside and out tells the compelling and moving account of 11 inmates who have been successful at achieving and maintaining physical and spiritual freedom. These in-depth interviews will be difficult to read and may bring tears to your eyes and pain to your heart. The soul-bearing accounts of dysfunctional families, chaotic neighborhoods, addiction, poverty, emotional pain, violence, and shallow goals led to very foolish choices. Once arrested, convicted, sentenced, and incarcerated the challenges became more intense. But these 11 sinners found the way to abundant life.

They each, in their way and in their own time, decided to follow Jesus Christ. They had help from loved ones, chaplains, corrections professionals, and Christian ministries like Yokefellowship Prison Ministry. But it was their confessions, prayers, and encounters with the Holy Spirit that took them from darkness to light.

There are patterns in these stories. Tragic as they may be, these are stories of hope! There is encouragement and wisdom here for inmates, returned citizens, their families, the professionals who work with them, and all who believe that everyone sins and that everyone can change and that second chances can lead to men and women who bless the world. There are important lessons here for those who care about Correctional Ministry and for all of us who sin.
