“I was in prison, and you came to me.”
Matthew 25:36
- Ministry arm
- Behind Enemy Lines | Prison, Reentry & Community Restoration
- Purpose
- Behind Enemy Lines develops Christ-centered outreach inside correctional facilities and in communities needing renewal. The vision trains disciples who can lead studies and gatherings under facility authority, pass the work to others, and connect people leaving incarceration with lawful reentry support, employment relationships, housing pathways and ongoing discipleship.
- Invitation
- An incarcerated person or authorized family member may eventually request connection through a secure pathway; no facility access, funding, job, housing or placement is currently promised.
Raise disciples
Equip willing participants to follow Jesus, study Scripture and lead approved gatherings that can continue when another person leaves.
Support human dignity
Develop governed help for basic hygiene or commissary needs when funding, facility rules and eligibility are approved.
Prepare the handoff
Coordinate lawful reentry relationships with ongoing discipleship, employment possibilities through Dominion Builders and housing pathways through Eden Restored or Eden Ranches.
Your next step
Move from reading into connection.
An incarcerated person or authorized family member may eventually request connection through a secure pathway; no facility access, funding, job, housing or placement is currently promised. Choose the pathway that fits what God has placed on your heart; an initial connection never implies automatic ministry assignment, endorsement or access.
People before programs
Welcome openly. Serve responsibly. Keep Jesus at the center.
