Transformation Changing Lives
Through discipleship, teaching, training, and encouraging we minister to men whose lives and families have been destroyed and help them put the pieces back together by modeling the love of Jesus Christ.

Who We Are
We minister to incarcerated men whose families have often lost hope in them. We find solutions through various programs to transition these men back into society as productive members once they are released from prison. Ultimately, we strive to restore these men’s relationships with God and their families.
Our Rehabilitation Process
Recognizing the many challenges men face when transitioning back into society, we have created educational and spiritual programs to help the men overcome these obstacles, setting them up for long-term success and reunification with their families.
Purpose Driven Life
We conduct weekly "Purpose Driven Life" classes in the jail and a certificate of completion is given at a graduation ceremony.
Reading Class
We provide reading classes to men who read poorly. Volunteers work one-on-one with the men so they may learn to read proficiently.
Jobs for Life
A nationally recognized re-entry program that helps men overcome difficult challenges such as securing meaningful employment.
Second Hope House
Second Hope House is a drug- free residence that provides a supportive, peer-driven environment.
Liberation
Through a personal relationship with Christ, these men come to experience they are free from the bondage of sin and addiction.
Gary Polsgrove
In 1995, Gary was one of these broken men. He is passionate about investing in these men and understands the social, emotional, and spiritual barriers to successfully re-entering society. These programs are designed to equip men to overcome these obstacles and realize their God-given potential.
