"And they overcame him by the blood of the lamb and the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto death." Revelation 12:11

"All Things New, Ministry has helped countless people and I am one of them. I first met Aubrey Pridgen in 2011 as a Trustee in Rankin County Jail. I was released and continued down the wrong path. I ended up back in Rankin County jail in 2015, and Aubrey showed me the true love of Christ. From the very beginning, he never gave up on me. Aubrey has continued to mentor me even after being released. I have seen All Things New, Ministry help many families in need and go above and beyond for the name of Christ. I am thankful for them and my prayer is that the Lord continues to bless this ministry."
Gwen McClain - C.R. Teacher & Jail Minister
"In 2019 I found myself in Rankin County jail because of my bad choices. During my 5 month stay, I was ministered to, almost every night, and was baptized by Aubrey and Debbie Pridgen, the chaplains of the jail and founders of All Things New Ministry. They had all made a direct impact on me and I knew I wanted to be a part of this group when I got out. I even promised God I would serve Him. I completed the Celebrate Recovery program at The Pointe Church in 2020, and then completed all my legal obligations by 2021. Upon completion, I started serving in Celebrate Recovery at the Pointe, serving in jail ministry and I volunteer to serve wherever I’m needed. As I look back, these last 5 years serving with All Things New and my church, the Pointe, has been my greatest blessing and brought me my greatest joy. I give God the glory for the work He’s done in me, and thanks to All Things New. I couldn’t have done it without their love and support of me. They have been my greatest encouragers!"
Jessica Hancock - C.R. Teacher
"For 15 long years, I wandered in darkness, many of those years behind bars. Now, I've been experiencing nearly 2 ½ years of true freedom. I am overwhelmed with gratitude for where I am today and for those who have stood by me, cheering me on, guiding me, and supporting me every step of the way. Back in 2015, my parole required me to attend Celebrate Recovery. I completed it successfully, but I wasn't fully surrendered then, leading to more years of chaos. However, that seed planted itself in my heart. Everything changed on February 2, 2022, when I entered treatment for 90 days. I was broken, defeated, and exhausted. Those 90 days set me on a path I hadn't dared to hope for. The Monday morning after I left treatment, I found myself at Celebrate Recovery, at The Pointe Church. Brother Aubrey welcomed me with open arms. I realized he had been there all along, quietly showing me that Jesus loved me, no matter what. Every single Monday, I kept coming back. God continued to work on me, removing obstacles from my life that were holding me back. My heart, once hardened, softened into something new. Then came, All Things New, Ministry, stepping in to build me up further. I know without a doubt that I wouldn't be where I am today without the leadership, mentorship, and guidance of everyone at All Things New, and of course, God Himself. His grace and mercy have overflowed in my life beyond anything I could have imagined. The life I live now is a complete turnaround—a 180-degree shift from where I once was. To Aubrey, Brandi, Scott, Chasity, and Jaya—thank you from the bottom of my heart. You've been instrumental in my journey, and I am forever grateful."
John Gallagher - Founder of Black Sheep Recovery, & Jail Minister
"My journey with All Things New Ministry began in 2018 at Rankin County Jail, a pivotal moment when Jesus entered my life and transformed me forever, ending three decades of addiction. When I met Aubrey Pridgen, I opened up about my story and asked for a Bible. Just a week later, he presented me with a Bible that became my constant companion throughout prison and remains by my side to this day. After my release, I reconnected with Aubrey, through Celebrate Recovery, where I was introduced to incredible people like Scott and Chasity Walters, Aubrey’s wife Brandi, and Jaya Buford. Each of them have been a mentor, teacher, and family to me, guiding me on this path of faith and healing. My walk with Christ has been profoundly shaped by the support of All Things New Ministry. Their love and guidance have illuminated my journey, reminding me that with faith and community, transformation is not just possible—it’s a beautiful reality. I am forever grateful for the blessing they have been in my life."
