A Vision to Live By

June 6, 2013 by Jim Liske

Vision is destiny. Our feet will generally take us where our eyes are focused, so if we want to get anywhere, we had better have a clear picture of where we’re headed.

At Prison Fellowship Ministries we imagine what it would be like if we could walk into every correctional facility in America, and we could see the pervasive influence of Spirit-filled inmates changing the prison culture as they grew in faith. What if they were using their time productively, preparing to rejoin the Church outside the walls as servant-leaders?

We imagine what it would be like if we saw godly policies emerging from legislatures all across our land, because lawmakers had God’s laws written foremost on their hearts. We imagine how things would be different if the Church’s compassionate desire to advocate for the poorest and more vulnerable brought about true, restorative justice for all.

We see the restorative power of the Gospel building the Church inside of America’s prisons and jails and connecting it to churches on the outside prepared to further the restoration of those coming home.

And we imagine doing it all with you.

Does this vision resonate with you? Come walk with us in the direction God is leading. Get engaged. Give back your time. Give back your resources. Support prisoners with your faithful prayers. There’s a future full of miracles in store.
