The Calvin Prison Initiative, a partnership between Calvin University, Calvin Theological Seminary, and the Michigan Department of Corrections (MDOC), was started in 2015. Faculty from the university and seminary teach courses at Handlon Correctional Facility each semester and students who complete the five-year program earn a bachelor-of-arts degree in faith and community leadership.

” . . it (The Word of GOD) Judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart. Nothing in all creation is hidden from the sight of GOD. Everything is uncovered and laid bare before the eyes of Him to Whom we must give account.”

“To GOD belongs all that is in the heavens and on earth. Whether you show what is in your mind or conceal it, GOD calls you to account for it. He forgives whom He pleases and punishes whom He pleases. For GOD has Power over all things.”
