These 75 inmates fell to their knees to give their lives to Jesus in a maximum-security prison. Most of these men are serving life sentences in a Missouri prison.
The inmates raised their hands and shared that they were struggling with anxiety, depression, and addiction. But God healed and set them free! Now, they have a new hope and a future. There is a revival happening within prison walls!

75 Inmates Give Their Lives to Jesus
God Behind Bars Ministries has been ministering to different prisons throughout the United States.
They have helped lead inmates to be baptized, accept Jesus, and embrace a new life inside and outside prison.
Like this man, who has been imprisoned for 30 years:
“I am sentenced to 30 years for armed robbery. Knowing Jesus and having a relationship with Jesus makes a big difference. For many years, I knew of Jesus, but I didn’t have a relationship with Him,” he said.
“It was in 2008 that I came to have a relationship with Jesus. A prison without God? There’s no worse prison than any prison man can ever make,” he added.
Moreover, another testimony comes from a man who was sentenced to 20 years in prison. Now, as a former prisoner, he has been leading hundreds of people to Christ.
In a detailed post, RJ shared his testimony, likening it to the story of the prodigal son in the Bible.

“Since 2009, God Behind Bars has partnered with churches around the country to transform the lives of prison inmates and their families. Most prisoners—as many as 92% of all incarcerated individuals—will be released back to society at some point, and 75% of them will return to prison within three years. We address this problem with a unique three-step approach that focuses on the physical, spiritual, and relational needs of inmates and their families.
“By inviting God into prison and showing His love in tangible ways, God Behind Bars is restoring lives, building faith, fighting addictions, reconnecting families, and giving thousands of inmates hope for the future.” – God Behind Bars
