  • How Prison Ministry Changes Lives on Both Sides of the Bars with Heather Rice-Minus of Prison Fellowship - Episode 1093

    How Prison Ministry Changes Lives on Both Sides of the Bars with Heather Rice-Minus of Prison Fellowship - Episode 1093
    Nov 2 2026
    When we hear the word serve, we immediately start thinking about all the things we should be doing, the places we should be volunteering and donating our clothes, serving meals, and being the hands and feet of Jesus. But what if serving starts with paying attention to the people God has already placed around us? What if we start by asking where there’s a need and how God might want to use us to meet it? Today, I get to talk with Heather Rice-Minus, who is the President and CEO of Prison Fellowship, an organization that works to restore those affected by crime and incarceration through the Gospel. Heather is going to help us think about what it looks like to serve people in our own communities, especially people we might not naturally think about or even know how to reach. I think this conversation is going to help us see our cities a little differently and maybe even recognize an opportunity to serve that we’ve been walking past. I’ve gotten to serve in prison ministry the last couple of years and it has truly changed my life. . . . .

    Unlock Your Creativity and Discover How God Wants to Use You with Al Gordon- Episode 1091
    Oct 26 2026
    God made you creative and your gifts have a purpose. Today we start talking about another rhythm that’s helping us get spiritually stronger: service. We're talking about how to serve in your gifting, how to recognize the ways God has uniquely wired you, and how to use those gifts to bring hope to the people around you. Al Gordon is a Christian leader, pastor, and voice in the global creative movement within the church. He’s the founder of Renaissance, leads SAINT, a church in East London that was planted with a mission to bring hope and renewal to a neighborhood where less than 1% of people attend church. Al recently released his book Spark in March and it’s the perfect resource for this conversation. Find the show notes here . . . . Thank you to our sponsors: Compassion International: One name.
