Welcome to God Behind Bars, a podcast where we explore the intersection of faith and incarceration. Join our CEO and Founder, Jake Bodine, as we take you inside prisons across the U.S. and have candid conversations with current and former inmates, Department of Corrections officials, and other various other guests and discuss why we believe God belongs in prison. Tune in every other week and be encouraged by stories of faith, resilience, and the transformative power of God behind prison walls.

We traveled to Washington, D.C., for an exclusive interview with Chaplain Houston of the Federal Bureau of Prisons. Throughout his career, Chaplain Houston has guided hundreds of men to faith in Jesus. Now, thanks to the fulfillment of a prophetic word spoken over his life, he serves as the Head Chaplain of the FBOP. Don’t miss his incredible story!
Today we’re introducing you to the Community Reentry Network (CRN) and the Federal Bureau of Prison's volunteering program.
What’s the CRN?
The Community Reentry Network (CRN) is made up of over 3,500 faith-based organizations that offer everything from prayer to legal services to returning citizens. Listen to this interview with Chaplain Houston, national coordinator for the CRN, where he talks about the power you can bring this community. It's a great opportunity to open your doors. https://crn.reentry.gov/crn/s/
Volunteer with the FBOP
You can also share your strength with men and women while they're still in custody. Federal prison has over 200 volunteer programs listed on their official Inside Influence site – all you have to do is find one that speaks to you and sign up.
