From the DesiringGod.org website:
The Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola, LA, is the largest and historically one of the bloodiest maximum-security prisons in the USA. In 2009, Desiring God and John Piper were invited to Angola to learn about prison life, hear from men who have been radically changed by the gospel, and minister to many of the 5,000 inmates.
Don’t Waste Your Life Sentence confronts you with the realities of inmates who, though their lives appear to have been wasted, often have a greater grasp on eternity than those on the outside.
Watch the trailer below. If you’re near Minneapolis Minnesota, join Bethlehem Baptist Church for the film premier and the prison ministry they do. (Info here).
“It maybe that your presence here will enable you to see better than the people in my church can see.” -John Piper
“It’s easy to get into trouble. But it’s so hard to get out of.” -Inmate

I very much want to see this!
