Prison society is no better or worse than those inmates who make up its population. As goes the attitudes and actions of inmates, so goes much of the prison culture. The Christian in prison does not have to conform to the evil that often confronts him, but can choose to be a light in a dark place by living for Christ. This requires the discipline necessary to learn God’s Word and the courage to live His will. Where the light of Christ shines, there the soul is free to live and love, even in the midst of spiritual darkness where evil rages against God’s truth. Overcoming Evil in Prison addresses some of the basic issues related to helping the Christian advance to spiritual maturity and to be a light for Christ in a dark place.
