摘要

在民主开始之前，南非的司法系统将监狱作为惩罚手段。新的发展主要侧重于恢复性司法，旨在使罪犯康复、重新融入社会并重返社区。这一制度为南非监禁中心的牧师和精神工作提供了空间。这篇文章用约翰福音8:1-11的宣教性解读和David Heritage的叙述来证明信仰，而不是宗教，可以改变前罪犯的生活，使之成为重生和转变的叙述。刑满释放者有第二次机会为天主传教服务，作为宣教转化和转变的代理人。

“Go Home and Sin No More!” Reimagining Faith that Changes the Lives of Offenders to New Narratives of Rebirth and Transformation

The justice system in South Africa used prisons as punitive instruments before the dawn of democracy. New developments focus mainly on restorative justice that seeks to rehabilitate, reintegrate, and restore offenders to their communities. This system has allowed space for chaplaincy and spiritual work in South African incarceration centers. This article uses the missional reading of John 8:1–11 and the narrative of David Heritage to demonstrate that faith, not religion, can change ex-offenders’ lives into narratives of rebirth and transformation. Ex-offenders are given a second opportunity to serve the missio Dei as agents of missional conversion and transformation.
