In this powerful interview, we hear from Jay Harvey, Director of Prison Ministry for NickV Ministries. Jay shares his inspiring journey of how the Lord led him into prison ministry, and how he has seen the ministry evolve over the years. With experience working with the fastest-growing demographics behind bars, women and juveniles, Jay sheds light on the challenges faced by inmates and the need for fathers in their lives. The NickV Ministries Prison Ministry’s goal is to plant churches inside prisons. Jay shares the success they’ve seen with the discipleship programs, Free in My Faith and Staying Free, and how they identify and equip leaders to start a church. When men and women are released from prison, Jay discusses the challenges they face and how we, as the Body of Christ, can help them know they are accepted. Jay also shares his personal learnings from countless testimonies of men and women who have found hope and purpose behind bars. He addresses some of the blind spots Christians have when doing prison ministry and shares some good things to keep in mind when sharing the gospel behind bars.
