News Talk 94.1/AM 1600 Where The Upper Cumberland Talks
Life Church’s prison ministry hopes to touch lives throughout the Upper Cumberland and beyond.
Associate Pastor Bob Sotis said the ministry began 10 years ago at the Putnam County Jail. Since then, it’s spread to Overton, White and Clay counties. Now, it’s moving into Davidson.
Life Church partnered with a women’s ministry and the Metro-Davidson County Correctional Center.
“What we do now is we actually package the DVD up, and send it to a lady and she takes it into the women’s ministry in Davidson County, when you start to think about the parameters of how God does this you just step back and go ‘wow listen to that,'” Sotis said.
The ministry provides county jails with DVDs of each week’s service, then teams go in to minister to inmates. Sotis said the church is expanding its reach to try to help inmates once they’ve been released.
