At Crossroads Correctional Center In Missouri, Bibles Behind Bars Is Putting The Preserved Word Of God Into The Hands Of Men Who Need Truth And Hope Before It Is Too Late

Crossroads Correctional Center is not an abandoned relic from Missouri’s prison history; it is once again an active maximum and medium-security institution housing roughly 1,250 men behind concrete, steel, electrified barriers and coils of razor wire. Closed in 2019 and reopened in 2022, the facility stands as a grim monument to the consequences of choices made, laws broken and lives forever altered. From the air it resembles a cold, mechanical wheel, with cellblocks radiating outward from central corridors and every road ultimately ending at another locked gate. For the men living inside, however, this is not some trivial architectural curiosity or bland government statistic—it is daily life at the Crossroads.

“The Lord gave the word: great was the company of those that published it.” Psalms 68:11 (KJB)

There is something hauntingly appropriate about that name, Crossroads, because every man inside that prison has arrived at a crossroads far greater than the one that brought him before a judge. The State of Missouri can confine a man’s body, regulate his movements and determine the hour when his cell door opens, but it cannot prevent the word of God from reaching his heart. This is why the work of Bibles Behind Bars is so necessary and needed, placing the preserved word of God into the hands of prisoners who desperately need truth, hope and the gospel of the grace of God. These men do not need another watered-down paraphrase, religious pamphlet or empty program, they need a King James Bible they can open, read and believe. Some will leave Crossroads through the front gate, while others may never leave at all, but the blood of Jesus Christ can save any sinner who believes. No man is beyond the reach of God’s grace, and no prison wall is thick enough to stop his preserved word. Chaplain Matt at Crossroads wrote to us and said “We have had an influx of inmates hungry for the Word of God and they have been asking for Bibles in mass requests and we about out of Bibles and would appreciate a donation for as many as you can give!” There it is, waist-high and over the plate, let’s hit this thing out of the park.

In addition to Crossroads, we also have pending requests for Bibles from:

• Orange County Department of Corrections – FL
• Torrance County Detention Facility – CA
• Macon County Sheriff’s Office – IL
• One Bible requested by Mom Nancy for her son in Bay County Jail, Panama City – FL

Christian, the only way this works is if you will lift this ministry up in prayer as often as the Lord brings it to your mind and heart. The only way this works is if you will go above and beyond to help us with this “great commission” the LORD has given us. Come help us, we need you!!

Men At Roxbury Correctional Institution Are Coming To Chapel Services, But Some Cannot Afford A Bible—Bibles Behind Bars Is Ready To Answer The Call

Behind the razor wire and concrete walls of Roxbury Correctional Institution in Hagerstown, Maryland, are approximately 1,800 men, each with a story, a past, and a soul that matters to God. Some of these men are coming to chapel, listening to the preaching, and trying to follow along as the Word of God is opened—but they have no Bibles to take with them back to their cells. That is why this request from Chaplain Ralls is so important. It’s a request for the one Book that can pierce the darkness, convict the sinner, comfort the broken, and lead a captive man into the liberty found only in Jesus Christ.

“Remember them that are in bonds, as bound with them; and them which suffer adversity, as being yourselves also in the body.” Hebrews 13:3 (KJB)

Chaplain Ralls writes “RCI houses approximately 1800 Incarcerated Men. We would love to be able to provide men that are unable to afford a bible, a new bible so they can come to service and follow with the word being given. If possible, we would like to request English Bibles and Spanish Bibles. Thank you so much for your help!.” This is the mission of Bibles Behind Bars – to carry the Word of God into places filled with guilt, fear, anger, regret, and hopelessness. We are not excusing crime, minimizing victims, or pretending consequences do not matter. Because they do. What we are doing is declaring that the shed blood of Jesus Christ is still powerful enough to save the worst sinner, and that no prison sentence can place a man beyond the reach of God’s mercy. The same gospel that saved me and you is the very same gospel these men so desperately need. Come help us to answer the call and meet this need for God’s word!

From A Troubled Past To A True Gospel Ministry Opportunity, Allegheny County Jail Requests King James Bibles For Inmates Hungry For Hope And Truth

The Allegheny County Jail in Pittsburgh has been through a lot. Over the past few years, it has made headlines for all the wrong reasons — deaths in custody, allegations of poor medical care, staffing shortages, lockdowns, and conditions that have brought intense public scrutiny. But in 2025, new leadership came in with a mandate to change the atmosphere, improve conditions, and begin turning the page on a troubled past. Part of that change would seem to be the bringing in of King James Bibles for as many of their 2,000 inmates as we can handle.

“Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 (KJB)

This request from Chaplain Marmo at the Allegheny County Jail is a tremendous opportunity, think about it. They contacted us and asked for the Book. That means they are opening the prison doors for the word of God to go behind the walls, past the checkpoints, through the locked doors, and into the hands of inmates behind the bars who desperately need light in a dark place. We may never stand inside that jail and preach to those inmates face to face, but we can absolutely put a King James Bible in their hands. Allegheny County Jail is trying to move forward from a troubled past under new leadership. But what those inmates really need most is not merely a better institution around them — they need new life in Christ within them. Help us answer this request. Help us send the King James Bible into Allegheny County Jail in Pittsburgh. Help us put the Book in the hands of people who may be locked up physically, but who can still be made gloriously free in Jesus Christ. Come help us send 500 King James Bibles to Allegheny, they need you and we need you!!
