What’s God Doing Behind Bars?

By August 1, 2011Church, Culture, Missions

There are close to three million prisoners now in the United States and that population is growing at a compounded rate of well over 2 percent a year. What will the future bring?

Introducing God Behind Bars

God’s prompting of the founder, Jake Bodine, and the skyrocketing number of incarcerated men and women in the United States has led directly to the creation of this one of a kind prison ministry.

Here are some of the features of what makes God Behind Bars unique:

* Unique four-step strategy that will allow a person to have full life change instead of some life change.

* Partner with churches an d faith-based organizations to stream live, dynamic, high-quality worship experiences into prisons all over the world.

* Online campus called “Church With Inmates” that allows the families of prisoners to see and experience the same service that their loved one is watching from inside the prison.

* Intentional about family reunification through outreach ministries such as their promising new children’s ministry “Project 22”, a ministry focused on providing children of inmates with a safe place to live and restoring the child and parents relationship through biblical principals.

* Next-generation aftercare program that pledges to walk with and care for each former pris oner who completes the three prerequisite steps. Among some things that will be provided initially by the ministry are temporary living quarters, groceries, gas, a cell phone, clothes, employment training and placement.
