Bible Study/Bible College Correspondence Courses

Please find below an extensive list of Bible Studies Correspondence

Courses along with a brief description that can be used by those who are
incarcerated. Most are either free of charge or have a very low cost. This
list of information was taken from a Christian Resource Guide for the
Incarcerated Believer, (The Arsenal), compiled by a former inmate/sister in
Christ whose desire is to see inmates grow in the Lord amidst their time of
incarceration. It is our desire as a ministry to pass on helpful information
that can be used by those who are serving time. What an awesome
opportunity we have been given to use our time wisely in order draw closer
to our Lord and Savoir Jesus Christ!!

If you know of any further studies that are available with little or no charge,
please feel free to contact us and let us know so that we may consider
adding it to our list.
