Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the popular series "Voices from Prison Walls" the author has introduced readers to daily life among drug addicts, murderers, gang members, and other desperate souls. Each volume ("Voices from Prison Walls"; "More Voices from Prison Walls"; "Yet More Voices from Prison Walls"; and now the fourth in the series, "Still More Voices from Prison Walls") recounts the sad tales of sin's wages that lands men in prison. But the prison chaplain doesn't stop with despair and regret. Happily, he shows us a community of hope and rejoicing that has risen up inside the cellblocks as men turn from their sinful, fraudulent, violent and even murderous ways to fling themselves at the feet of Jesus. Chaplain Cawman urges them on into Entire Sanctification as the only cure for the evil nature that set up each of these men for their fall in the first place. Where Jesus reigns completely in the heart, his light radiates outward into the prison population, effecting real change. The author also updates his mission trips to Africa and Central America, where God has used him to combat false doctrine and proclaim the gospel message of heart holiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “An unforgettable look at the peculiar horrors and humiliations involved in solitary confinement” from the prisoners who have survived it (New York Review of Books). On any given day, the United States holds more than eighty-thousand people in solitary confinement, a punishment that—beyond fifteen days—has been denounced as a form of cruel and degrading treatment by the UN Special Rapporteur on Torture. Now, in a book that will add a startling new dimension to the debates around human rights and prison reform, former and current prisoners describe the devastating effects of isolation on their minds and bodies, the solidarity expressed between individuals who live side by side for years without ever meeting one another face to face, the ever-present specters of madness and suicide, and the struggle to maintain hope and humanity. As Chelsea Manning wrote from her own solitary confinement cell, “The personal accounts by prisoners are some of the most disturbing that I have ever read.” These firsthand accounts are supplemented by the writing of noted experts, exploring the psychological, legal, ethical, and political dimensions of solitary confinement. “Do we really think it makes sense to lock so many people alone in tiny cells for twenty-three hours a day, for months, sometimes for years at a time? That is not going to make us safer. That’s not going to make us stronger.” —President Barack Obama “Elegant but harrowing.” —San Francisco Chronicle “A potent cry of anguish from men and women buried way down in the hole.” —Kirkus Reviews

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Each volume of the series "Voices from Prison Walls" gives a glimpse of the spiritual trek of the gang members, murderers, drug addicts, and violent men who respond to the light of the Gospel inside a prison. In each volume (Voices from Prison Walls; More Voices from Prison Walls; Yet More Voices from Prison Walls; Still More Voices from Prison Walls; and now Even More Voices from Prison Walls) Prison Chaplain Cawman describes springs of joy as inmates turn from the awful bondage of the Adversary of their souls to the freedom that only Christ can give. Dealing with difficulties from a terrible pandemic, bureaucrats, confrontational inmates persuaded by other doctrines and pagan religions, he lifts up soul after soul, each one a trophy of God's grace and the cleansing power of the Holy Spirit. He also shares happy events from his personal life, such as the long-awaited "treasure" with which God has blessed him, a trip to walk in the footsteps of Jesus in the Holy Land, and the testimony of how his missionary daughter was called to serve in foreign fields.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the popular series "Voices from Prison Walls" the author recounts the stories of God reaching gang members, murderers, fraudsters, drug addicts and other convicts. Each volume ("Voices from Prison Walls"; "More Voices from Prison Walls"; and now "Yet More Voices from Prison Walls") tells how men turn from the depths of depravity to the glorious light of Christ's love. But the prisoners' pastor does not rest with seeing convict conversions; he urges them on into the fullness of Entire Sanctification. Many of these sons of God eagerly press forward into the Second Blessing, even in the face of opposition from Islamists inside the prison and even officials in the state capital. In this volume, the author also reports on his adventures in Africa, where God used him to combat false doctrine springing up amidst fledgling national church groups. He endured heat and malaria, being stranded by broken down vehicles, and opposition from rival groups to proclaim the gospel message of heart holiness.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: God loves prisoners, even those guilty of horrible crimes. Locked away from the rest of society, forgotten and reviled by the outside world, these men and women nevertheless are not beyond the reach of His love and grace-if only a messenger will bring the Good News to them. Such a messenger is William Cawman. He is a chaplain in the New Jersey Department of Corrections, ministering to inmates at South Woods State Prison. In Voices from Prison Walls he tells the stories of many of the men in the New Jersey prison system. Here are gang members, murderers, drug addicts and many others. Most importantly, here are the dramatic acts of God's grace to save and sanctify even the vilest, turning them into shining lights of redemption.

Download or read book Voices from American Prisons written by Kaia Stern and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-06-20 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Voices From American Prisons: Faith, Education and Healing is a comprehensive and unique contribution to understanding the dynamics and nature of penal confinement. In this book, author Kaia Stern describes the history of punishment and prison education in the United States and proposes that specific religious and racial ideologies - notions of sin, evil and otherness - continue to shape our relationship to crime and punishment through contemporary penal policy. Inspired by people who have lived, worked, and studied in U.S. prisons, Stern invites us to rethink the current ‘punishment crisis’ in the United States. Based on in-depth interviews with people who were incarcerated, as well as extensive conversations with students, teachers, corrections staff, and prison administrators, the book introduces the voices of those who have participated in the few remaining post-secondary education programs that exist behind bars. Drawing on individual narrative and various modern day case examples, Stern focuses on dehumanization, resistance, and community transformation. She demonstrates how prison education is essential, can provide healing, and yet is still not enough to interrupt mass incarceration. In short, this book explores the possibility of transformation from a retributive punishment system to a system of justice. The book’s engaging, human accounts and multidisciplinary perspective will appeal to criminologists, sociologists, historians, theologians and scholars of education alike. Voices from American Prisons will also capture general readers who are interested in learning about a timely and often silenced reality of contemporary modern society.

Download or read book Beyond Walls and Cages written by Jenna M. Loyd and published by University of Georgia Press. This book was released on 2013-12-01 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The crisis of borders and prisons can be seen starkly in statistics. In 2011 some 1,500 migrants died trying to enter Europe, and the United States deported nearly 400,000 and imprisoned some 2.3 million people--more than at any other time in history. International borders are increasingly militarized places embedded within domestic policing and imprisonment and entwined with expanding prison-industrial complexes. Beyond Walls and Cages offers scholarly and activist perspectives on these issues and explores how the international community can move toward a more humane future. Working at a range of geographic scales and locations, contributors examine concrete and ideological connections among prisons, migration policing and detention, border fortification, and militarization. They challenge the idea that prisons and borders create safety, security, and order, showing that they can be forms of coercive mobility that separate loved ones, disempower communities, and increase shared harms of poverty. Walls and cages can also fortify wealth and power inequalities, racism, and gender and sexual oppression. As governments increasingly rely on criminalization and violent measures of exclusion and containment, strategies for achieving change are essential. Beyond Walls and Cages develops abolitionist, no borders, and decolonial analyses and methods for social change, showing how seemingly disconnected forms of state violence are interconnected. Creating a more just and free world--whether in the Mexico-U.S. borderlands, the Morocco-Spain region, South Africa, Montana, or Philadelphia--requires that people who are most affected become central to building alternatives to global crosscurrents of criminalization and militarization.

Book excerpt: In "More Voices from Prison Walls," New Jersey state prison chaplain William Cawman recounts the chronicles of gang members, drug addicts, murderers, thieves and other renegades turning from the kingdom of darkness to the warmth of God's love. Many of these forgotten men become missionaries in their own right as they are moved to different sections inside the prison, or even to other institutions. There they spread the Good News of their own conversion to other inmates, igniting the fires of evangelism in new territory. In this sequel to "Voices from Prison Walls" (ISBN 13: 978-0-88019-588-1) are further moving accounts to cheer and inspire God's people everywhere- even those who have never seen the inside of a penitentiary.

Book excerpt: The school to prison pipeline refers to the pattern of tracking students out of educational institutions into the penal system. This narrative study was designed to explore the reasons young Black men aged 19-25 are being incarcerated at a growing rate from the young men's perspectives. By giving these young men a voice, this research allowed these young men to tell their stories of why they think they were incarcerated and what interventions could have helped them. This study highlights the young men's perception of influences in their lives that funneled them into the school to prison pipeline. Research suggests the need for social and political programs that will assist families in the formative lives of young Black me.

Book excerpt: Part of the Poetry Behind the Walls series, this anthology collects the work of incarcerated youth worldwide. The poems and autobiographical sketches featured remind readers that incarcerated youth are thinking and feeling individuals with the same aspirations and goals as other children, not merely statistics to analyze or incorrigible people to forget and discard. As a creative outlet and space for expression, the book provides a means for the poets to empower themselves and resist victimization by the supposed criminal justice system.
