7. Prison Ministry: Insights about prison culture! Mandatory reading for Christian Chaplains who do not understand the commandments regarding visiting prisons." For new prison ministry chaplains, prison culture is like visiting a foreign land, and the thought of ministering in prison to those incarcerated can be a very intimidating prospect. Many churches have sent teams of ministers into prisons, and nearly two-thirds of them have returned to their churches defeated. Prison chaplains must have a far better view of what prison ministry is all about if their are to get through many of the trouble areas in the ministry of prison chaplaincy.

Ministry to the Incarcerated: In Ministry to the Incarcerated, Dr. Henry G. Covert uses his experience as both police officer and prison chaplain to examine the problems of the incarcerated - people who are often misunderstood and forgotten. Dr. Covert addresses specific areas of inmate stress, such as low self-esteem, guild, and unrealistic expectations, and explains how these can be major obstacles to a prisoner's personal and spiritual development. According to Dr. Covert, many inmates truly desire to change. He gives examples of biblical themes that can promote healing and regeneration among prisoners, drawing specifically on the teachings of Jesus. He calls for staff education, environmental improvement, and a pastoral presence to enable our prisons to become sites of rehabilitation, rather than places of punishment.
