"I was in prison and you visited me." The words of Jesus in Matthew 25:36 call all imaginations to go deeper. What if God really is in prison? What if God was on death row? What would the life of Jesus look like? Jesus on Death Row is a contemporary interaction with the Gospel of Mark that seeks to answer these questions by placing the drama of the life of Jesus on death row in Texas. In the pages of this text, I hope you discover the God who exists with those we have exiled and rejected.
