Welcome to the weekend, and welcome to the Saturday 7.
At age eight, David Gaspar was the victim of a violent crime. At 22, he was the perpetrator. Now, he has dedicated his life to helping stop the cycle of crime before it begins. Read about what Gaspar and other prison ministry leaders told us about problems in the prison system, what life is like for those encountering God behind prison walls, and the organizations answering Jesus’ call to care for the incarcerated from bail to reintegration into community.
We hope this will help you learn more about this important cause Jesus himself pointed us to.
“It’s an unbelievable thing to see a man who has no hope come to hope.” Short on employees to work for his two companies, Pete Ochs answered a unique call – to run his business inside a prison. What he found was an unexpected ministry among incarcerated men that provided him with a “whole new vision” for what he could do as a business leader.
Every human has the capacity to change. Jesus calls us to preach his unending supply of forgiveness for the sins of every person. Listen as Nashville musicians, The Warren Brothers, with Send Musicians to Prison sing at a maximum-security prison.
