Jesus in Prison

My brother has a post about the recidivism (is this a word? my spell checker doesn't recognize it) of prisoners and how some ministries, like the Christian Restorative Justice Ministers Association, are making a difference to help change the statistics. His question at the end is stirring and convicting. More folks are needed to help make a difference and you can take the first step by reading the post, posting it and/or forwarding it on to others. The post came on the same day we presented a video to our church to close out a sermon series on "Keeping in Step with Jesus and His Mission." The video was an interview with Bono by Bill Hybels. Bono is a great example of one who speaks up for the "least of these," especially relating to the poor and sick in Africa. You can begin speaking up and out through One.org
