“No matter what you've done or where you've come from there is a God in heaven that loves you. And he wants to have a relationship with you."
— Jake Bodine

This month we're focusing on the radical, endless love and forgiveness God offers sinners. Today we're seeing that love and forgiveness through the lens of prison inmates. Jake Bodine, founder of God Behind Bars, shares about the revival happening behind prison walls—inmates all over the country are experiencing the profound forgiveness and freedom found only in Christ. His stories and wise words will give us new insights into our self-justification, our sin ranking, and the radical mercies of God. You'll be encouraged to embrace the grace of Jesus for the worst of sinners (namely the person in the mirror)!

This month's memory verse: "As far as the east is from the west, so far has he removed our transgressions from us." — Psalm 103:12
 
Today's guest: Jake Bodine is the founder & CEO of God Behind Bars. He is a passionate entrepreneur with a huge heart to see those who are lost find Jesus and success in knowing Him. Jake is passionate about using his gifts and talents to change the world for the forgotten society behind prison walls. He has served as the CEO of God Behind Bars for 15 years and was recently named of the Top 40 Leaders in the city of Las Vegas.
