This book explores and formulates a response to the question: How
best can those held in modern systems of mass incarceration be
cared for pastorally when many prisons diminish both hope and
humanity? Employing the multi-disciplinary approach of practical
theology, this ethnographic enquiry will be a guide for chaplains
and all who strive to embody compassion wherever human flourishing
is undermined. The book's structure follows the pastoral cycle
method from practical theology, remaining context-based and
practice-focused throughout. Pastoral insights are illustrated with
personal, poetic and movingly reflective material drawn from the
lived experience of indeterminately sentenced men who did not know
if or when they would be ever released. The author, a former prison
chaplain, remains reflexively and humanely present in the text,
modelling the profound humane regard and pastoral presence that is
central to this work. This book will take the reader deeply into
penal spaces on a journey of both compassion and hope.
