Prisoners in the Bible

Each chapter of my book, Prisoners in the Bible, is about someone in the Bible who was in prison. In the book, I draw comparisons to situations inmates face today with those imprisoned people faced in biblical times. 

As is the case with people in prison today, no two biblical prison stories are the same. Likewise, God responds to each person's situation in a unique way.There are questions for discussion or personal reflection at the end of each chapter. 

I am currently working on an updated version of Prisoners in the Bible that will include revisions, a new cover, and three new chapters. The price of the updated edition will be lower than the current edition.

Endorsements: 

"I have read Prisoners in the Bible once and am planning to read it all the way through again soon. I have gone back to it when I've felt alone, down, and even lost. It has helped me a lot. I liked several parts: How Joseph Handled Temptation, How God Can Use Anyone, Fear in Prison, God's Power to Change a Life, etc. I could go on about what I liked about it, but just know that it's helped me survive!"
--Thomas, Inmate at Federal Prison Camp in Duluth, Minnesota

"I loved Zach's book. It's well-written and interesting. I would have loved to have had this book to share with others while I was in prison. Every prisoner can relate to the stories of biblical heroes who were used by God in spite of being in prison. 

The stories give hope to inmates that they, too, are already forgiven and can serve God despite their past failures." 

- Pat Nolan, Former Vice President of Prison Fellowship

"As example piles upon example, we see that there are no throw-away people when it comes to God's mission. 

Zach's book is a ringing message of hope for prisoners, their families, or for those whose lives, like Zach's, 

have teetered so close to the boundaries that redemption stories will be like a cup of cold water."
