Sr Helen Prejean, author of "Dead Man Walking" with Fr. John Dear: "Where is Jesus now?"

🔥 New Episode! The Nonviolent Jesus Podcast 🎙️ ✊
Featuring Sister Helen Prejean: A Life of Courage, Compassion & Justice

This week, we welcome Sister Helen Prejean, a spiritual powerhouse and one of the world’s fiercest voices against the death penalty. ⚖️💔

Sister Helen’s journey into activism began in the shadows of death row, where she encountered the raw reality of injustice. Instead of turning away, she stepped closer—standing beside the condemned, bearing witness to their dignity, and challenging a system built on vengeance.

🙏 You may know her as the author of the groundbreaking best-seller Dead Man Walking—a book that sparked a national conversation, became an Oscar-winning film starring Susan Sarandon & Sean Penn, and even inspired a powerful opera recently performed at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York.

📖 Her fearless voice continues in other best-selling books like:
✨ The Death of Innocents—exposing wrongful executions
🔥 River of Fire: A Spiritual Memoir—her journey into radical faith

Through her ministry, Sister Helen has accompanied eight men to their executions—standing in the face of darkness and proclaiming the unshakable truth: every life has dignity. 🌎❤️

Today, she joins us from her home in New Orleans to share her wisdom, her faith, and her unwavering hope for a world without state-sanctioned killing.

⚡ This is more than a conversation—it’s a call to action.
💡 How do we, as followers of the nonviolent Jesus, stand for mercy in a world bent on retribution?
💡 How do we embody justice that heals, rather than justice that punishes?

🎧 Take a deep breath, open your heart, and prepare to be moved. This is a conversation you won’t forget.
