🔒 What really happens behind the walls of a jail—and who ministers to those inside?

from The Spotlight Network · host Logan Crawford

We're joined by Rev. Jonathan C. Tetherly, author of What's Going On In There? A Jail Chaplain's Story. Drawing on three decades of service as a jail chaplain in Massachusetts, Tetherly offers a rare, firsthand look at life inside correctional facilities, revealing the humanity, struggles, and hope found among inmates, correctional officers, volunteers, and staff.⛪ From worship services and counseling to crisis intervention and advocacy, the book explores the evolving role of a chaplain in a rapidly changing correctional environment. It also examines broader issues of justice, rehabilitation, faith, and the responsibility communities share in supporting those affected by incarceration.✨ Compassionate, eye-opening, and deeply thought-provoking, What's Going On In There? invites readers to look beyond prison walls and consider the power of redemption, dignity, and second chances.#authorinterview #TheSpotlightNetwork #WhatsGoingOnInThere #JonathanCTetherly #JailChaplain #criminaljustice #faith #restorativejustice #memoir #nonfiction #bookcommunity #authorspotlight #secondchances #inspiration #books📖 Learn more: https://www.amazon.com/Whats-Going-There-Chaplains-Story/dp/1951928989 ✅ Visit the official website: https://thespotlight.network/💬 Let us know what you think of this video in the comment section below.✔️ And don’t forget to subscribe to The Spotlight Network!https://www.youtube.com/@TheSpotlightNetwork?sub_confirmation=1
