International Prison Ministry
Distributing Bibles and Christian literature to prisoners as a gift. The distribution of Christian literature is the fundamental way that God has used IPM to reach prisoners for Christ. During many typical years, the International Prison Ministry has published and distributed hundreds of thousands of outreach items to inmates (including Bibles, New Testaments, Life-Changing testimony books, and Christian greeting cards). The testimony books are the true stories of ex-convicts who turned “from crime to Christ” and became vibrant, fruitful Christians. Many became very effective jail and prison volunteers. Some even established prison ministries themselves. In addition to providing these materials free to every prisoner who requests them, this literature is also available to other prison ministries (through our Acclaimed Books department) for less than wholesale cost, in order to assist in their outreach to prisoners.
