Who We Are
Our slogan comes from the Lord's Prayer — "on earth as it is in heaven." We believe that includes prison. God's presence, His love, and His kingdom are not suspended behind razor wire.
Worthy People exists to make that visible: worship happening in cell blocks, lives changing behind locked doors, and dignity restored where the world stopped looking.
We Believe
The church is not a building—it’s us.
Freedom isn’t just physical—it’s spiritual.
Everyone has a calling—no matter their past.
Our Model
Support during incarceration
Reentry guidance post-release
Ongoing discipleship and community support
Cody & Julia
From prisons to pulpits, from the streets to service.
Cody was born dead to a drug-addicted mother and as a result has scars all over his body to this day. He survived the projects, the foster care system, and life on the streets at 18 years old.
At 20 years old in the Texas prison system, 3 years into his sentence he desired a new way of life. Cody had a life-transforming encounter with Jesus in a prison. When he learned his worth in Jesus, it changed him and he never looked back. It was then that he was given the mandate to preach the gospel to the lost, the last, and the least.
In 2013, he moved to San Antonio to start his new life in Jesus. While attending a bible conference he met his wife Julia and they have called San Antonio home for almost a decade with their children Jax and Faith. Now Cody and Julia lead Worthy People and travel to prisons with the message to remove the labels of society by seeing and accepting all people as Jesus does.
Our Team
Worthy People is led by a team with direct, hands-on involvement in every part of the ministry — inside facilities, in the studio, and in the community. We partner with correctional facilities, churches, and organizations that share our commitment to the incarcerated and those coming home.
