In January 1983 Burt Folsom read a story in Time about Mitch Rutledge, a man on death row with an IQ of 84 who said he was sorry for what he did. "Forget him," the last line of the story read. But Burt wrote Mitch a letter and discovered a man more interesting and intelligent than the article revealed. Burt and his wife, Anita, began a friendship with Mitch and saw him become a leader and role model for others in prison, teaching himself to read and write (starting with copying down the spelling of items he knew from TV commercials) and becoming a national spokesman on prison life. Death on Hold is the amazing story of their friendship, and of grace, reconciliation, and redemption for a man without hope who was given a future.

"Some true stories move us. Pamela's story changes us." - Dale S.Recinella, Chaplain for Florida's Death Row and author of Now I Walk on Death Row Pamela Perillo was set to die on March 24, 1996. Convicted of capital murder in 1980, Pamela sat on Texas's Death Row awaiting lethal injection. But less than two days before her scheduled execution, she was given a second chance, and in 2000, she was resentenced: from death to life in prison with the possibility of parole. Her first chance at new life had come shortly after her arrest, when Pamela embraced the Christian faith and began bringing her fellow inmates to redemption in Christ. That's why although Pamela's story is one of imprisonment--first by abuse and addiction and ultimately behind the locked doors of the criminal justice system--it's also a story of hope--of finding a new path in faith, of taking courage from the promise of salvation, and now, of praying for parole in 2019 after nearly forty years of incarceration. Salvation on Death Row combines true-crime reporting with a powerful spiritual memoir, reminding us that every life is a journey, every person is capable of change, and every individual can make a positive impact on the world. "This is a great story with a wonderful conclusion: The only good answer is the Lord!"- -Bill Glass, founder of Bill Glass Ministries The author's proceeds from Salvation on Death Row will benefit Patriot PAWS service dogs.

Product Description. Prayer Journal For Incarcerated Women: 52 Weeks Scripture, Devotional and Guided prayer Journal. The perfect companion for Individual worship or bible study, created with great love specifically for female prisoners. A NOTE FROM THE AUTHOR "When our loved ones are incarcerated, we hope and pray everyday for their welfare, missing them and knowing that they are deeply missing us and their freedom too. Imprisonment is a severe punishment delivered by society and along with it can come many hardships leaving our loved ones feeling isolated, terrified and alone. Throughout the years, turning to God has proven to be a miracle lifeline for many inmates. Not only does it give them a purpose and sense of hope, but if offers them a place to lay down their load, take much needed comfort and start the process of self-transformation whilst connecting them to other inmates with the same values. Prison is a place designed to punish those who break the law, but God can and does use it as a place of transformation, healing and refinement, pursuing prisoners with love and never giving up on them. When an inmate is enlightened with this truth, they will gain a sense of peace and hope and see a new way emerging for them. The time spent in prison does not have to be an unproductive hardship but a time of not only surviving but thriving. It can most definitely be a time of renewal and optimism for a new way of living whilst carrying out the sentence given and most importantly, starting a new life on release never to be never incarcerated again. Everyone deserves a second chance in life and to find their way back to God. The Christian Prayer Journal for Incarcerated women includes: Weekly Bible Verses for Prayer Journal prompts to enhance and strengthen the walk with God, including forgiveness and gratitude Weekly Scripture (52) to reflect on throughout the week, really taking the verse into our hearts with a reflection page to record thoughts and responses. Own personal prayer section. A perfect gift of hope for your loved one. "I, the Lord, have called you in righteousness; I will take hold of your hand. I will keep you and will make you to be a covenant for the people and a light for the Gentiles, to open eyes that are blind, to free captives from prison and to release from the dungeon those who sit in darkness" Isaiah 42:6-7
