Women of the Word EMUNAH

This episode was first published on October 31, 2025.

In this moving episode of Emunah, Dr. Tamara Henry sits down with Rev. Jamesina Greene to uncover an often-overlooked reality inside America’s prisons — the quiet, unseen caregiving that happens every single day. While the public tends to view prisons only through the lens of punishment, Rev. Greene invites us to see another side: incarcerated men and women who care for the sick, the elderly, and the dying; who mentor younger inmates; and who offer comfort and hope to those society has forgotten. Together, they explore what this kind of caregiving reveals about faith, dignity, and redemption in the most unlikely places.

Bible Verse

AUGUST 2026

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. Dear friends, now we are children of God, and what we will be has not yet been made known. But we know that when Christ appears, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.  All who have this hope in him purify themselves, just as he is pure. 

1 John 3: 1-3, 16-18

Colossians 3:17 says “And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” Women of the Word takes that command seriously. We provide desserts to the homeless men who visit Our Daily Bread in Baltimore. We have partnered with Hope from the Heart Orphanage in Tanzania, collecting children clothing and toiletries state side and sending them to MWanza. In the past, we have worked with Samaritan’s Purse. Before COVID-19 and all its variants, we visited hospitals and nursing centers, as well as conducted Bible Study in local correctional institutions.
