Around the world, incarceration does more than deprive people of physical freedom. It strips away identity—who a person is—and crushes hope—why they should keep going or change their ways? What is the purpose of their life? Shame becomes the loudest voice. Despair becomes the everyday reality. The future is bleak, stripped of hope and purpose.

But into the darkness, the Gospel speaks to those who are open and listening, offering freedom, identity, and hope.

It’s easy to forget those behind bars.

Out of sight…
Out of mind…
But not to God.

Every man and woman in a cell has a story.
A past.
A future.
And a soul deeply loved by Jesus.

Scripture reminds us to remember those in prison as if we were there with them.

Because compassion doesn’t stop at prison walls.
It steps inside.
It listens.
It shares the hope of Christ.

And that’s exactly what chaplains do every day. What a privilege to share the Good News with the forgotten behind bars.

Are you a passionate believer? Then let's GO together to proclaim the light, life, and love of Jesus behind bars.

We go to proclaim that true freedom begins in Christ.
We go to proclaim that hope is still possible behind bars.
We go to proclaim that identity is not defined by the worst mistake.

Let's GO!

We go where most people would never choose to go.

Into locked facilities.
Into solitary units.
Into places where shame feels heavier than chains.

Why?

Because men and women behind bars are not beyond redemption. They are not their worst mistake. They are in need of hope.

And when the Gospel is proclaimed, something remarkable happens — freedom rises in the very place freedom was taken. Identity and hope are restored through Christ.

That’s why we show up.
That’s why we stay.
That’s why we proclaim.

Let’s disrupt the darkness of incarceration with God’s Word and Christ’s redemption!

More than 11 million men and women are behind bars worldwide—living without hope and without the freedom only Christ can give.

The light of Jesus Christ is needed behind bars—shining into places marked by despair, isolation, and brokenness. When chaplains GO, the Gospel is proclaimed, and lives are transformed.

Let's GO and bring the gospel behind bars! Learn more at gnglobal.org.

Jails are full of people serving time, but they’re also full of people searching for hope.

Every day, our chaplains walk into cells and common areas with a simple mission: to listen, to pray, and to proclaim the freedom found in Jesus.

No spotlight.
No stage.
Just faithful presence.

And in quiet conversations, Bible studies, and unexpected encounters…lives are changed.

Thank you for helping bring the light, life, and love of Christ behind bars. The Gospel is transforming hearts — one encounter at a time.

Real Peace & Joy

Not long ago, he was terrified—young, alone, and overwhelmed by the walls around him. Today, after giving his life to Christ, he’s reading the Bible and praying openly in the dayroom.

Some people may assume it’s “just a phase.” But those who know the power of Jesus know this: Christ gives REAL freedom. REAL hope. REAL new life.

Please pray that this young man will continue to grow in faith—and that those around him will see the hope of Jesus and respond, too.
Because no one is beyond redemption.

A Place in the Family

Jesus said, “In My Father’s house are many rooms…” (John 14)

A chaplain recently shared this promise with a frightened 18-year-old inmate who had never known stability or a home. As he listened, he learned something powerful: Christ doesn’t just offer forgiveness, He invites us into His family.

That young man broke down in tears and said, “I want to be part of Christ’s family.” They prayed together, and he surrendered his life to Jesus.

This is the Gospel behind bars. A home. A Father. Freedom behind bars.
