Sometimes, we extremists are criticized for lack of moderation. We throw ourselves into most things we do that we want to do. When I was a problem and addicted alcoholic, I drank to excess on every occasion. And, once I started the process of binge or session, the end was I often passed out, ended […]

As a new Christian, I was exposed to a number of scripture verses about dying. They talked about dying to self, the old self dying, and being crucified with Christ. Early on, I didn’t know exactly what that meant, but I kept wondering about when, where and how that death occurs. The verse of Galatians […]

Preston and Anabel Gillham wrote a little book called A Study of the Mind. In their opening statement, they state, “Spiritual battles are won or lost at the threshold of the mind, not the mind”. They go on to stay that once you allow a thought to enter your mind, the battle is over because […]

Recently, we received a note via our Prison Evangelism Facebook account of a man who had served some time. His note was to encourage us to “keep it up” and continue to send gospel books into prisons. He went on to say that this is the only encouragement some of those in administrative custody, administrative […]

Sometime ago and a few years into my salvation experience, I realized there really was a specific plan for my life. God didn’t save me (or any of us) to teach us how to make lots of money or find out how many kids we could have. He had a very narrow and self serving […]

Before it can be printed, it had to […]

This number grow constantly as we strive to include all who are incarcerated. On a permanent basis, there are some 2,000,000 residents of these facilities. We see this as a wonderful opportunity to take the […]

Twenty-one months ago Prison Evangelism sent our sixty thousand copies of How to be a Child of God to three hundred and fifty-five prison units in nine states. In this particular printing, we bound in a reply card in the back that asked the reader or recipient to tell us what he thought about our […]

A famous bank robber was asked, “Why to you rob banks?’ He replied, “ Because thats where the money is.’” The same can be said for prisons and evangelism. That is where the lost souls are. It is a slow process for most of us to really come to a point of surrender and admit […]

Probably one-half of the people under forty in this country (US) grew up in a one parent household and chances are that parent was a women. I have seen how difficult it can be for a single mom to raise children while maintaining a semblance of a home and working full time. It is a […]
