Paid in full

(cont'd from yesterday's post)

Retired Judge Tom Kohl became a Christian believer as an adult, and says that he doesn't know how he could have gotten through the events of 2006 without the presence of Jesus Christ in his life. His daughter was a meth addict, and she was murdered that summer. Eventually (hard to imagine) he was able to actually forgive the murderer, and started a prison ministry.

Warden Burl Cain (previous posts) is retired now, but he's still interviewed about the transformation that occurred at Angola. Below he says, "It's a miracle! But I didn't do it. He [God] did." The plan works, it saves the state money, and it blesses everyone (in the words of interviewer Eric Metaxas).



Judge Kohl started speaking at prisons around the country. Warden Cain invited him and his wife to spend a few days at Angola. It changed the judge's life and he started the plan in Oregon. Cain's plan is being instituted in other prisons across the country. It's brought education, skills, morality, and culture change.
