A Prison Ministry contacts your church about an inmate, who is now serving life imprisonment at the state penitentiary. The inmate had attended the church when he was a youth and now wants to reconnect with the church. A few parishioners remember the man. He had attended the church for a brief time some 30 years earlier when he was the foster child of parishioners of the church. When he was eighteen years old, he and two other young men robbed a store. One of the other young men shot the cashier, killing him. All three received the mandatory sentence of life imprisonment without parole. Those who remember the events recall that the foster parents did not return to church after the shooting and soon afterward moved away. A group from the church visited the man, now in his late forties. He tells the group how there has been proposed changes to the law that would allow his case to be reviewed. He expresses his hope that the law will change providing the opportunity for him to be released from prison. In the meantime, he would like to take college classes that are offered at the prison from the local community college. He asks if the church would pay for the classes. The cost per class would be about $600. Some in the church are excited about the opportunity to help support the man in his pursuit of a college education. Others oppose the idea; suggesting that it is a waste of money to pay for someone who will never get out of prison to take college classes. If they wanted to help some one attend college; they should offer college scholarships to needy students who aren’t imprisoned. Mission money is used to pay for him to take a class; but there are many who are upset that church funds are being used. It is decided that individuals can contribute to further classes, but church mission funds will not be used. The man then requests that the church help him obtain a lawyer so his case can be reviewed. There are some in the church who are adamantly against this including a former prosecutor who remembers the case and insists that he deserves to be imprisoned for life. Others, however, believe that life imprisonment without parole is an unjust sentence and the church should support his efforts to have his case reviewed. Meanwhile, others worry the man is taking advantage of the kindness of some in the church and worry they may end up paying a lot of money for a lawyer when the man has no grounds for an appeal. What ethical/social issues present themselves? What biblical and theological groundwork would inform your approach to this scenario? How would you resolve this conflict?
