Are you ready for vampires to regain their standing and stop sparkling in the twilight? Are you ready for them to take on an opponent more vile, viscous and evil than themselves? Wait no longer!

These are the vampires that filled many nightmares of old. Meet the Romanov and Boirarsky clans. They have waged a war amongst themselves for centuries over feeding rights and inconsequential issues. All of that changes when Adolf Hitler decides to expand the Third Reich and invades Poland in 1939.

The Germans start shipping off their food supply to distant lands. The clans are unwillingly forced to decide if they are going to continue with their fruitless battle or combine their collective forces and take on an opponent worth of their sharpened fangs: The Third Reich!

Vampires vs. the Third Reich – evil never tasted so good.

More than 200,000 women occupy beds in US prisons and jails. Separated from their families and shunned by society, they live in shame – overlooked, feared, and despised.

In this intense and very personal memoir, Linda Pischke shares her experiences in jail ministry and examines the world of incarcerated women. Citing statistics from the US Department of Justice, she exposes the truth about women offenders and brings new insight to the needs of this forgotten and misunderstood population.

Most of these women will eventually return to our communities. Will we welcome them home and teach them the skills they need to survive in society or will we continue to punish them for their crimes, forcing them to recycle through the system?

Eleven women share their personal stories and Linda reveals how God teaches us to love the unlovable when we open our hearts to serving him.

Joey Pinkney: Where did you get the inspiration to write “The Women of Block 12: Voices from a Jail Ministry“?

Linda Pischke: I was invited to teach a Bible study class at a jail in our community. Once I met the women, I realized my beliefs about criminals and Continue reading 5 Minutes, 5 Questions With… Linda Pischke, author of The Women of Block 12: Voices from a Jail Ministry →
