Prisoner

By Scott Wesley Goodwin

SHACKELD AND CHAINED to more than just another prison sentence, young Friday Freeman realizes that the statistics are stacked against his hope for a different life. Born into a family of criminals, slaved to the enterprise of evil works, Friday is decidedly determined to change his future, he wants a different fate than that that his DNA has planned for him, the life of a prisoner. Illiterate and socially inarticulate, without vocation or skills, Friday's hopes are bleak, but God hears his heart's cry for a change from the madness that has him enslaved.
FRIDAY IS BEFRIENDED by a small group of born-again lifers who tell him about Jesus and His saving love. How radical a transformation Jesus is, and what it means to be a new creature in Christ. Friday learns what life on earth is all about, why suicide is no way out, and where we go from here.
PRISONER IS THE STORY OF SALVATION as told by the least of these, a view of heaven from just inside the gates of hell. Friday learns firsthand the meaning of: 'I was in prison and ye came unto me'.
THE NOVEL PRISONER is a vehicle to carry the gospel in a way that is both entertaining and enlightening. PRISONER voices the emotional strain of being incarcerated, the deep seeded hope for freedom that all prisoners experience. Ignorance and illiteracy; social-emotional survival; the dangers surrounding incarceration; the tragedy of lost souls, and the extremely high cost of salvation paid for them.
THE NOVEL, PRISONER, is an expose of the mind and emotions of the incarcerated; a deterrent from leading a life of corruption. PRISONER portrays the ambience of prison's reality without the rudeness of the lewd and is suitable for older teens.
