Set Free for a Purpose: A Former Prisoner's Testimony of DMM

Gregg's testimony

May 26, 2023 • Gregg Woodard

During the last years of his 19 year sentence in a maximum security prison, Gregg met Jack, a chaplain and former pastor. Jack discipled him and a few others to practice DBS within the prison. Through the blessing of the Lord, they saw DBS multiply from 3 to 37 groups with over 300 men participating in the DBS. The multiplication went down to the 5th generation!


Through the grace of the Lord, Gregg was released early from prison and is now working to develop the Freedom Initiative to include re-entered parolees. While supporting them practically and relationally, the Freedom Initiative will continue to disciple released men and women to make disciples and make a difference in their local communities.


Gregg briefly shares what Discovery Bible Study and being a part of The Freedom Initiative means to him.
