A Christian’s Guide to Prison Survival – David T. Beardsley

Not only a compelling testimony to the power of rehabilitation through regeneration, but also a practical guide for Christian living beneficial to all believers. This unique tool for jail or prison ministry is based upon the authors’ personal experience with prison life. His resume includes serving a segment of time in all of the past four decades and embodies incarceration in one federal, four state, and eleven county facilities in four states.

As a rebellious youth, the author pulled his first stretch in a state institution at the age of fourteen. He floated in and out of various institutions for several years until he faced long-term incarceration in his late twenties. While serving a sixteen-year sentence for armed robbery, he surrendered his life to Christ Jesus and buried his past life in Christian baptism. He was released from prison having served only a fraction of his original sentence.
