- Mike McInerney Ministries
We are dedicated to providing a Christ-centered alternative to the rehabilitation and
personal improvement programs now offered by typical secular criminal justice systems and
the helping professions in the United States and the world. This alternative would stress
personal responsibility particularly as it pertains to the process of changing beliefs,
habits, compulsions and anti-social behaviors from the inside-out as opposed to typical
programs which advocate the forcing of change onto the individual from the outside-in.
This will be achieved by providing a ministry staff of individuals who are committed to
the Lordship of Jesus Christ and by using lessons, newsletters, various types of
literature, personal mentoring and public speaking opportunities all of which stress a
Biblical, Christ-focused value system and world view. This system of teaching and support
is based on an emphasis on spiritual truth as well as reverence, worship and service of
God. The ultimate purpose, therefore, is to honor the Lord Jesus Christ and strengthen our
society through strengthened individuals and families that are centered on Jesus Christ.
