Jane Hall

Jane Hall worked 25 years in Georgia Prisons and Juvenile Justice Centers, working with inmates with intellectual disabilities. In those years, she has had horrendous days, but has also had holy days in which she was blessed to see murderers, rapists and armed robbers behave in ways that, in her words, "put my Christian witness to shame". Always a writer, she began writing devotions twenty years ago to fill her own spiritual void and to minister to those in corrections. Her book, The Kingdom of Heaven is Like Unto, is a collection of these devotions. Jane was born in Anniston, Alabama, received her bachelors at Auburn University, her masters at the University of Alabama and her doctorate at George Peabody Teacher's College, Vanderbilt University.
