This is part two in our series featuring Kurtis & Joe. If you missed the first one, you can catch up here.

Before they ever spoke, Kurtis could tell that Joe didn’t belong. He was quiet, lost, and clearly unprepared for prison. What happened next defied every stereotype of incarceration, and changed both of their lives.

In this second message, Kurtis writes about what it meant to look out for someone else, and the spiritual rule that carried them through Joe’s first six years inside.

Coming Soon:

In our next post, Kurtis goes deeper into Joe’s story, learns about his wife Edna, and respecting small wonders.
