Don't Waste Your Life...Sentence

Announcement from Desiring God today (this event looks to be very edifying!):
What can convicted felons teach us about an un-wasted life? We invite you to find out. 
The Louisiana State Penitentiary in Angola, LA, is the largest and historically one of the bloodiest maximum-security prisons in the USA. In 2009, John Piper and Desiring God visited Angola to learn about prison life, hear from men who have been radically changed by the gospel, and minister to many of the 5,000 inmates.
On August 20th, we are hosting a premiere of our new DVD documentary created from the experience -- Don’t Waste Your Life Sentence: Voice from the Louisiana State Penitentiary. Join us at Bethlehem Baptist Church in Minneapolis for the premiere, a live Q & A with some production staff and local prison ministries, and some refreshments.
