When his walk with God began, Hank Dixon was facing a life sentence for murder. Little did he realize, God's grace would not only set him on a path to encounter the ghosts of his past, but also call him to prison ministry.
A Lifer's Journey is a heartfelt journey through the most meaningful of encounters that have spanned an ex-con's twenty-year prison ministry career, where expectations are sometimes turned inside-out. From encounters with an ex-cop serving time in a maximum security seg unit to the powerful moment, in the fire of a riot, where God reached out to touch the life of one the most rejected of criminals, Hank's story weaves together life changing personal experiences with a deep compassion for both inmates and staff, revealing a prison world where invoked or not, God is present.
