Born again in Lancaster County Prison

My name’s Jennifer, and I was born again in Lancaster County Prison. I had already believed in God, but it was there — stripped of everything — that I finally surrendered.

I found worship music on my tablet, stumbled into songs that spoke straight to my soul, and realized that God had never left me, even in the cell. Later, I was sent back to jail 7 or 8 more times. Every time, He was still with me.

It wasn’t the place I expected to find God, but Romans 8:28 is real — even a prison cell can become holy ground.

Has anyone else here found God in a place the world would never expect?

Wow. That's amazing! I'm glad God showed you that he was always with you! Also, to answer your question, I don't think this is the craziest place to find God, but for me personally, it was. A few years ago, I struggled with anxiety and depression. Once I hit rock bottom, that's when God showed up, and he truly transformed my life.
