In prison, inmates are surrounded by some of the worst evils in the world. Hope is often lost, and despair and depression set in. Inmates are faced with ongoing violence, anger, hatred, strife, deceit, sexual immorality & assault, pornography, and all sorts of evil. A Study Bible, the Holy Spirit, and a walk with Jesus teach them the spiritual tools necessary to have victory over darkness!
Many inmates hit rock bottom while in prison. At this juncture, the heart is open, and the eyes and ears are ready to receive. This is a time where real change can occur. What if they saw hope? What if they received a Bible? This is where YOU can help make an eternal difference by changing a life, one Bible at a Time!
Did you know it costs the taxpayer about $30,000/year to house a prisoner? For only $30, you can help change a life behind bars with the gift of a bonded leather-bound Study Bible. That’s 1/1000th the price of 12 months imprisonment. Inmates who desire change are waiting for God’s Word to arrive into their hands. Two thousand are currently on our Bible waiting list. The Word of God is sharper than any two-edged sword. It has the power to change lives. It is the single most influential and powerful tool to bring a prisoner out of the darkness and demolish recidivism rates. What if you gave $30/month for 12 months? 12 lives become transformed behind bars. Will you help us change a life today? Will you consider partnering for $1/day ($30/month) and helping us raise up twelve disciples this year behind bars? Transform a life with the gift of a Study Bible today!
For $30/month (just $1/day), you can change 12 lives this year by helping a prisoner come in direct contact with their Lord and Savior through the Word of God. Partner with the Holy Spirit to transform a life today!
When you give $30/month for a bonded leather-bound study Bible, your gift reaches first into the prison to transform a life, and then outside the walls of the prison to his family. Your gift helps reduce the statistical chance of his son or daughter going to prison by approximately 300 percent. Help transform a life and family for $30 today!
“The jailer called for lights, rushed in, and fell trembling before Paul and Silas…and asked, “Sirs, what must I do to be saved?” 31 They replied, “Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved–you and your household.” 32 Then they spoke the word of the Lord to him and to all the others in his house…then immediately he and all his family were baptized.”
– Acts 16:29-33
Sean, Incarcerated in Colorado
I wanted to let you know I received my beautiful Bible. Thank you so much for your faithfulness to all of us incarcerated. As Jesus said in Matthew 25, In as much as you did it to one of the least of these my brethren, you did it to me. May God continue to bless all of you at HEART of America as you continue to reach out and touch the world with the love of Jesus.
It begin to thank you for this beautiful Bible. I love it! And I really love the historical notes and the way it is illustrated through and through. This may sound crazy, but I think it means more to me because of the wait. I don’t know, but it seems almost like I grew into it. Please let the people whose donations and time were spent making this possible know that I really appreciate it and that I will be adding them to my prayer list. I hope one day to be able to help someone the way you have helped me, not only with this Bible, but also with your letters over the years. You have given me a great gift.
I was placed in the AR prison system for selling meth. I was crushed and very depressed. The thought of being away from my family, especially around the holidays, was a lot to bare. The first month of intake, you are in a single man cell in complete solitude. The only reading material allowed is a Bible. As I started reading, something drove me to focus on the New Testament. Being Christmas, it felt right to have a better understanding of Jesus. It ended up being the best Christmas I have ever had because I spent it with Jesus, just me and him. It was the first time in my life that I could hear God speaking to my heart, and I’ve had Him there ever since.
