3 | Need to Get Dunked On?

Sometimes people forget that “the free world isn’t free.” That is, you must literally consistently choose your freedom— and content for it.

Take the Children of Israel, for instance…

… they found themselves free from slavery yet complained— and relished how great their days of slavery were…

Um. No.

❌

The “good ole’ days” weren’t so good. In fact, they were the environment we prayed to get out of…

👇

Such is the case with prison re-entry.

It’s easy, when you get out, to forget how good you actually have it.

And to forget how the hassles you handle now ARE THE VERY things you prayed for in the past.

💥

In this episode we talk about four more barriers to re-entry:

5️⃣

6️⃣ The Sentence = creates a record that eliminates some jobs and future opportunities

7️⃣ Addiction = = dealing with the root issues, lest the bad fruits continue returning and creating more chaos— is the #1 reason for re-offending

8️⃣ Change = the shift to the “free world” is abrupt— especially with the pace of change in society— you return to a different world than than one you left
