When you have gone with prisoner to pastor, you hone in on the idea of personal responsibility in your behavior and in your faith. That's the case with Jack Hager, the Episode 11 guest of the Practical Faith Academy podcast.
Jack Hager is a former convict who found Jesus while incarcerated, simply by reading the Bible and letting the Holy Spirit work on him. He emerged ready to serve God, becoming a pastor. Over his career, Hager’s service has included work for Family Life Ministries, partly as a radio host; toured widely as a youth summer camp speaker; and served in prison ministry. Hager’s theme is personal responsibility and accountability that he learned the hard way.
