Jailhouse Journals

by Mike Mahy

Overview

Incarceration. Pain. Change. Miracles. This is what I want to share about in Jailhouse Journals. It was because of God's justice that I got the sentence I deserved for the crime I committed; but in his mercy, the experience in jail was more that what I had ever expected. To get the help I needed while in jail gave me hope not only for me, but also for those who may be reading this to get help from the trap of sexual addiction.

The purpose of these journals is to inspire the reader that God is not only real, but he is also a loving God and will help those who want change if they are willing to do so, and that there is actually a system of incarceration, called Right Living Community, as a rehabilitation approach to serving a sentence rather than just doing hard time.

About the Author

Mike Mahy lives in the beautiful west coast province of British Columbia, Canada. His professional background includes military service in the Canadian Navy, restaurant industry, and worked professionally as a bookkeeper and tax preparer.Due to dark, hidden secrets about his sexual identity, he acted out in criminal behavior, which led to his arrest and eventual conviction for sexual interference. He served most of his 11 months of his 2-year less a day sentence in Ford Mountain Correctional Centre, where the vast majority of his journals were written. He used many of his experiences, both personally and professionally, to help other inmates while serving his sentence.He received an incredible amount of counseling, cognitive behavior therapy (CBT), support through his SAA (Sex Addicts Anonymous) group, and from his chaplain to help him be put on to a path of recovery and transformation. It takes faith, hope, and love; and effort. His life is an example of positive change.
