🎙 UNBOXED on Purpose – From Blunder to Blessing with Jan D. Thomas
In this inspiring episode, we welcome Jan D. Thomas from Las Cruces, New Mexico — a retired prison warden, pastor, published author, poet, and artist whose 85 years of life are filled with remarkable service and creativity.
Jan shares his journey From Blunder to Blessing, drawing from decades of experience in prison ministry, Celebrate Recovery programs, and outreach to the homeless and migrants. He’s the author of multiple books, including From Blunder to Blessing, How to Say What You Mean Without Being Mean, and the Mesilla Traveler series, and co-author of Suppose Trees Could Talk. His writing is rooted in honesty, lessons learned from mistakes, and a deep commitment to valuing people.
From working his way up in the penitentiary system to leading with compassion, Jan reminds us that if people don’t matter, then God doesn’t matter. He reflects on how God uses both our failures and successes to reach others — and how our creative gifts can serve as tools for ministry.
💡 Key Takeaway: Life’s blunders can become blessings when we let God use them for His glory.
