ZANTIE SWANEPOEL - Behind Bars & The Power of Small Acts

Loading player...
In this moving podcast episode, Zantie Swanepoel—international speaker and founder of Babies Behind Bars—shares her powerful insights on children born in prison and the profound impact of humble service. Drawing from five years Zantie worked and ministered in prisons, she reveals heartbreaking realities, like how incarcerated toddlers thank prison gates (their only "world") and never experience true darkness. Yet, she also highlights hope—how awareness and compassion are transforming lives.

Zantie then shifts to a deeply touching story about an unseen prison janitor who, for eight years, anointed floors with oil and prayed over inmates. Without a title or platform, this woman’s quiet faithfulness broke hardened hearts and became "the loudest gospel" many prisoners ever heard.
