In Mississippi, a man stepped forward with tears in his eyes. He had just undergone a major medical procedure. The baptism tank was set up. Dozens were stepping into the water. But he couldn’t.
Still, he asked, “Is there any way I can be baptized today?”At a women’s maximum-security prison, a similar scene was unfolding. One woman had been praying from her cell, believing God could make a way. But she was in a wheelchair and unable to enter the tank. Still, she asked, “Can I be baptized, too?”
In both prisons, we grabbed water bottles. We gathered around them. Prayed. And we poured the water over their heads as they wept, baptizing them in the name of the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
The same Jesus meeting people just as He always has. In different places, under different circumstances, the same miracle unfolded.
This is what revival looks like behind bars. People are responding to the Gospel.Unlikely places. Unshakable faith.And a God who still saves.
After reunifications in Oklahoma and Las Vegas, we went to Texas, and in Bartlett and Allred we watched 98 more children run into the arms of their parents in a family reunification that was as amazing as any other so far.
There has never been a greater urgency to reach men and women behind bars. The cycle of generational incarceration is massive, but together we get to do something about it. Whether you choose to give once or monthly, know that your donation is not only helping here on earth, but is changing eternities forever.
Thank you for your interest in getting involved with God Behind Bars! We just need a few pieces of information to get the application process started.
