That Man is Dead: Chapter 24

  • Summary

  • Dennis describes the emotional and physical experience of visiting men in prison as part of his ministry. He recounts the process of entering the facility, the discomfort of the Sally Port, and the stark atmosphere of the visiting room filled with families talking to their incarcerated loved ones. During one particularly difficult visit with a man who has a history of addiction, Dennis struggles with the man’s resistance and the overwhelming silence between them. Despite the difficulty, Dennis remains committed to showing up, even though his visits often feel like they are having little impact. He reflects on his own past, having once walked out of prison as a free man and swearing to never return. However, God’s sense of humor, he says, has led him back to these places, calling him to continue offering hope to those in the darkness. Dennis understands the importance of showing up—whether in prison, halfway houses, or other challenging environments—and being a beacon of Christ’s light, even when the work feels exhausting and thankless.
