Abstract
The Wall Street Journal earlier this month published a major article entitled “Prison Ministry Becomes A Sophisticated Business.” Most of the article was devoted to the success of a program called “Starting Line” which boosts charismatic Christianity among prison populations by bringing high-velocity entertainment into the big house. Celebrity guitarists, comedians and war heroes catch the attention of inmates, and glossy videos point the way to Jesus. The article attributed the birth of Starting Line to Prison Fellowship Ministries of “Washington, D.C.” Of course we all know that the headquarters of Prison Fellowship (PF) is in the heart of Reston.
