The Silent King:He Was Broken Before She ever Showed Up

Benjamin Spencer is the founder and director of The Empty Cell Project, a prison reentry ministry based in Crawfordsville, Indiana. He has been walking in freedom for 45 years since his release in 1981, and has spent those decades building bridges between prison walls and church doors.

He is a Kairos Prison Ministry volunteer, a husband to Tracey, and the author of four books the Angel Trilogy: Angel in Cell Block C, Walking Among the Thorns, and The Invisible Train: The Chain Breaker along with The Legacy Book, a training manual for churches and ministries engaging in prison reentry work.

Benjamin does not write from theory. He writes from scars. His life's mission, captured in his Bridging the Chasm vision, is to see the church become the bridge that carries broken people from a cell to a calling.
