The Prodigal Son Returns
[link removed]
“For me, what’s been the most touching is that God has used someone like me to do something good.”
—Rusty
Rusty wandered far away from home on a long, violent, and chaotic road. It wasn’t where he and his family thought he would go in life.
“There was not a thought in my mind that had life in it,” Rusty says. “There was no future in my life that I could see. There was no hope. There was nothing. I was so evil … there was nothing left in my life that was life. It was all dead. … Every situation I put myself in was chaos and violence.”
Someone invited him to a weekend ministry event in the prison’s gym. Rusty didn’t want Christianity, but the prison had been locked down for so long that he decided to attend the event, just to get time out of his cell.
One night during the event, he prayed from his bed, “God, You’re going to need to show me You’re real.”
On the third day, Rusty felt like he was having a heart attack. He felt an intense pressure in the room and a weight on himself. He opened his eyes, looking for a correctional officer to get him medical help.

Doughnuts may have lured Matt to church, but a volunteer’s relatable message of love and forgiveness is what grabbed his attention and kept him there.
