When God unexpectedly opened the doors of three prisons in a single day, Soaring Behind Bars was born—not as an initiative we pursued, but as a calling we were entrusted with. What followed was unmistakable evidence of divine favor and precise timing.
This ministry stands firmly on the promise of Isaiah 61:1:
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me,
because the Lord has anointed me
to preach good news to the poor.
He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted,
to proclaim freedom for the captives
and release from darkness for the prisoners.”
From wardens to correctional officers to inmates who feel overlooked and forgotten, the invitation has been clear: bring hope, bring truth, bring restoration. Through Summoned to Soar, men and women behind bars are encountering more than encouragement—they are being reminded of their identity, dignity, and God-given purpose.
Each book becomes a seed planted into hardened places, addressing the whole person—spiritually awakening hope, emotionally restoring worth, mentally renewing perspective, and practically equipping individuals to imagine a future beyond their past. This is not about temporary inspiration, but lasting inner transformation.
If you have been touched by the Summoned to Soar movement, you are invited to partner in this sacred work. Through monthly partnership with Angela Aja Ministries, you help place Summoned to Soar into environments where healing is needed most—supporting restoration that reaches far beyond prison walls and into families, communities, and future generations.
Our vision is both bold and prayerful: to place 100,000 copies of Summoned to Soar into the hands of men and women behind bars—proclaiming freedom, restoring hope, and reminding every reader that their past does not disqualify them from God’s purpose.
