2024 IBPA Benjamin Franklin Silver Award Winner for Inspirational Books! Based on the sermon series that garnered top honors from Yale Divinity School, Finding Joy on Death Row is the powerful story of a broken preacher’s transformative experience learning about joy from Death Row prisoners, combined with dramatic handwritten responses from more than twenty men and women currently sentenced to die.  In Finding Joy on Death Row: Unexpected Lessons from Lives We Discarded, Williams journeys into the hearts and minds of those sentenced to death, illuminating for readers the ways in which the human spirit can suffer—and soar. Readers will be begged a poignant question: if joy can be found even on death row, where isn't it possible?
