I appreciate the value of this book, examining the issue of incarceration from a Christian lens and advocating that the Church needs to pursue justice that restores. I thought there were some really great explorations of the history of incarceration and the Church's role in it. However, the style of the writing was very academic and theological, which made it hard to digest, especially as I recently read Just Mercy, which is written in a very approachable and compelling style. I like the added faith lens of this book, but I wasn't completing engrossed by it.
