Faith-Based Prison

Advances in incarceration. In Oklahoma: A faith-based prison is pushed.

WAKITA - This tiny town near the Oklahoma-Kansas state line north of Enid may soon own the country's only all-Christian prison, with Christian administrators, employees, counselors and programs.

The idea is backed by Wakita's leaders, has some support from state officials, and, its founders believe, is able to pass constitutional muster.

"If Chicken Little doesn't come to town, we'll be open in 16 months," said Bill Robinson, the founder of Corrections Concepts Inc., a Dallas nonprofit prison ministry that is spearheading the project.

Yes, the entire deal hinges on Chicken Little. Fortunately for them, Chicken Little accepted Jesus as his personal savior shortly after emerging from his egg.

Bill Robinson, founder of Corrections Concepts Inc. says:

"The staff, being all born-again believers, will see this as a mission... [the inmates] don't have to go to church, or Bible study, but they have to participate in the curriculum, which is Christ-centered."
