‘Just for this afternoon I forgot I was in prison’

Stefan Smart performing I Am Mark

Prisoners in jails across the UK have heard a dynamic new presentation of Mark’s Gospel explaining the call of Christ to them.

I Am Mark creator Stefan Smart has completed a month-long tour of his presentation of Mark’s Gospel in eight prisons. His August tour was part of the 20th anniversary celebrations of Daylight Christian Prison Trust.

One prisoner who watched Stefan’s performance said: ‘This is one of the darkest places on earth, and what you’ve brought today is light. We badly need the light.’
