Prisons Weeks - Holding Fast to Hope

The theme for Prisons Week (November 15-21) this year is ‘Holding Fast to Hope’. As the author of the Letter to the Hebrews says: ‘Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful; and let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another’ (10:23-25).

Prison Facts

Prisons Week (November 16 – November 22) has as its theme : Talented or Worthless?  There is a view, prevalent in society at large, which holds to the view that a prisoner should be treated with contempt, locked away (and preferably with the key thrown away) and very much ‘out of sight, out of mind.’
This however is not the Christian view which always holds out the prospect of conversion, change and redemption. The truth is that there but for God’s grace we all go and we at Bible Alive uphold that every prisoner, just like every human being, is created in the image and likeness of God and has God given talents and abilities.
