From Prison Gates to New Life: The Story of 7More | Joshua and Debs Walker | Ep. 37

What really happens the moment someone walks out of prison gates—alone, afraid, and carrying nothing but a red net bag? Bethany and Adam sit down with Joshua and Debs Walker, founders of 7More, a ministry that meets men and women at the prison gates the moment they are released. From helping them navigate those first critical hours to walking alongside them through mentorship, job placement, and faith-based community, the Walkers are bridging the gap between incarceration and true freedom.

You’ll hear stories of transformation, heartbreaking realities of life after prison, and how 7More is breaking cycles of poverty, crime, and hopelessness. Joshua and Debs share how identity in Christ changes everything, and how the church can step into a role that government programs can never fully fill.

Guest Bio:

Joshua and Debs Walker are the founders of 7More, a nonprofit ministry serving men and women reentering society after prison. Originally from Dublin, Ireland, they moved to Houston, Texas, nearly two decades ago, where they first began working with the homeless and discovered the unique challenges faced by those leaving incarceration.

With a heart to meet people at their most vulnerable moments, Joshua and Debs launched 7More to provide immediate support, practical resources, mentorship, and a clear message of hope in Christ. Their team works at prison release sites, halfway houses, and within communities to break cycles of poverty, addiction, and crime—one life at a time.

When Joshua isn’t serving on the streets or mentoring, you can probably find him at the local skatepark, connecting with people over shared passions and handing out 7More stickers. Debs serves as a voice of advocacy, coordination, and compassion, helping men and women walk a new path toward lasting freedom.
