In 2002 Crosswind began offering free comics to any prison inmate, prison chaplain, or juvenile in detention who requested them in writing. The response was tremendous. To date, over 150,000 inmates have read our comics. Over and over chaplains write to tell us the same thing: Comics work! They are effective where other methods of evangelism are not. Why? Three reasons:
1• Quality
artwork is always compelling. 2• The
personal testimonies portrayed in Amazing True Life Stories
depict real people, and you can't argue with someone who says, "God
rescued me." 3• Illiteracy
and lack of education make reading text-only literature difficult
or impossible for a large percentage of prisoners.

The Message for Children:
-Youth at-risk
Crosswind Comics began as a way to impact kids in the low-income housing developments of the inner city on a regular basis.
We continue to actively distribute free comics among youth-at-risk through youth pastors, chaplains at juvenile detention centers, and via established programs like "Kids' Quest."

The
Amazing Gospel is designed to help pastors and individuals reach their community ... here in the U.S. and abroad. With translations in English, Spanish, Hatian Creole, and Nepali already completed, we are also working on versions in Chinese, German, French, Indonesian, Swahili, and more!
The beauty of the graphic novel is that the pictures tell much of the
story. This is important in places where illiteracy and lack of education
have limited the effectivenss of Bible-distribution. After all, one must
be able to read in order to read the Bible.
By working closely with pastors in third-world, Latin-American, Muslim,
and communist countries, we are currently able to distribute The
Amazing Gospel to roughly one million spiritually hungry readers! The only barrier
to widespread implementation is the cost of high-volume printing.
