From Blunder to Blessing
Price range: $3.99 through $13.99Born at the edge of an open-pit copper mine in New Mexico, Jan Thomas comes from a background of working-class people, cultural Christians, but not committed believers. Growing up, he had influences and experiences causing doubts about himself and his ability to become more than his environment would have predicted. Influenced by teachers, Air Force buddies, and others, he began to trust God to do in him what he could not do for himself. As a youngster he thought he had no academic ability, but got BA and MDiv degrees. As a pastor he felt like a failure and began a career working in prisons. Struggling with life, he continued to try to serve. He married Fern, a widow with two children, and they had another child together. He became an administrator after only a few years; but his codependent nature, the desire to fit in, and to be liked at any cost nearly cost him his life. An old alcohol issue came back, at a time he was involved in two of the most amazing ministries of the twenty-first century, Celebrate Recovery and Kairos. Retiring in 1997, he began using CR in the prison he retired from. He was asked to help get the program into jails and prisons and became the first national director of Celebrate Recovery Inside. Celebrate Recovery Inside stretches across the United States and Canada as well as in many nations elsewhere. His own struggles have helped him become dedicated to the purpose God intended for him from the beginning. His ministry was not as a pastor but to those, like him, who struggled with life’s issues. When he stopped teaching and started the healing process for himself, God helped him to stop blundering and begin to see more of God’s blessing. He also used material from a course he taught at the New Mexico Corrections Academy to develop a curriculum for Christian communication to be used in the program called: How to Say What You Mean: Without Being Mean. His life has been one of service to people who struggle and find real help and meaning from a relationship with Jesus Christ. His autobiography is called: From Blunder to Blessing.

In The Chaotic Murmur of an Unclear Destiny
Price range: $3.99 through $15.99This is a book of deep love, devotion, and respect for the author’s late wife of the author, and it can also be seen as a guide and practice for overcoming difficult situations in life. Exploring his inner self, especially the unconscious part, the author talks about emotional reactions in the modern, alienated world. Improvising his imagination, he talks about a microcosm, which can be anywhere, in which there are long-standing injustices that need to be dealt with. How?
Please read it, and protect yourself with knowledge, it will certainly not lead you astray and accept everything that life puts in front of you, be ready, and understand all sorrows, difficulties, and injustices as a game that you solve, so that you, not others, set limits for yourself. – Marina Denadic
Željko Vujovic seems to be moving in a silent sailing ship not far along the mainland and observes everything on the shore… He looks precisely at the long past time and presents it to the reader as if it happened now. Sometimes that coolheaded composure gives way to a slightly emotional subjective assessment. Then the character of the Anemic Director appeared who was “appointed to that position by the Hepatobiliary Surgeon who applies the knowledge of hepatobiliary surgery in the politics of the Microcosm, and the Hepatobiliary Surgeon was appointed to the position by the Tall Man Who Sees High Above the Microcosm.” That emotional assessment is contained in a mild edge of irony which only reinforces the image of society that we survived a long time ago…
Željko is the treasure of many generations before him… Sometimes he breaks into a biting caricature: The Running Pissing Man, but, that is a testimony of the times we lived in, maybe we forgot and it comes back to us again and again: bad students raise respectable professors. And those respectable “beat the stone” on Naked Island. “Why? For nothing.” Answers a stout old woman, carrying on her mare a full “carload” of grapes and figs, which she picked with her own hands and laboriously and intended for her son, daughter-in-law, and grandchildren, pointing with her head to the house of Blažo Jovanovic, who, at that time, was cheering and dressing in Montenegro. – Dragan Perišic

Diary Of A Deplorable!
Price range: $3.99 through $12.99I am a deplorable. That is what a left-leaning, law breaking democrat has chosen to call me because, as a Christian conservative, I supported a Presidential candidate with whom I agreed. Seventy-four million Americans voted the same way I did in 2020, so I guess we are all deplorables. I’m also a white male, and in today’s world, that is the only group that one can discriminate against with the blessing of the main-stream media. Another president decried the fact that we conservatives “cling to our guns and our God.” I choose to cling to both! Further, as a conservative, and a former university professor, I’ve been a victim of the lies, and false accusations of the woke cancel culture. For these reasons, I am now highly vested in this struggle against dishonesty, cancellation, and the destructive identity politics of wokeness. Finally, I believe in truth, and believing the truth today is virtually criminalized in our country. Here are some truths that, as a deplorable, I believe in.
There are only two genders, and only females can get pregnant.
History cannot be changed, and historical monuments should not be destroyed or dismantled at the whim of today’s left-leaning press.
Reparations won’t work, since almost everyone on the planet can make a case to receive them.
The Southern border of the US is witnessing an invasion, sanctioned and encouraged by democrats. Drugs and criminal thugs flow in without restraint creating a danger for all Americans.
Fatherlessness is destroying the Black community, and that problem may take American culture down with it.
Our current president suffers from dementia. He cannot function as leader of the free world.
The 2020 presidential election was a coup, orchestrated by democrats, a number of “get out the vote” non-profits, and 2000 mules stuffing ballot boxes. The 2024 election might be the same.
The current, highly dangerous world chaos, and two wars, have resulted in part because of a weak, demented US President.
These truths, and many others, are being attacked daily in the press, but truth generally stands strong in the face of lying politicians and infantile name-calling. Still, in 2024 these “woke” attacks on conservatives are getting much, much worse. If the lies and half-truths of leftists go unchallenged, they can eventually destroy our American experiment, so I felt I had to respond. In all honesty, you probably picked up this diary because you feel the same. You may have been attacked yourself by wokeness in some form or another, perhaps denied a job or a promotion because you were white, or male. In the view of leftist democrats, all Christian conservatives and all republicans are “deplorables” all 74 million of us. Given that these attacks do destroy lives sometimes, I’ve decided to respond, using a Christian perspective and humor (which disarms woke-leftists), to comment on today’s headlines. Thus, I’ll embrace the term, deplorable! The woke left is going to hate me and all conservative Christians anyway, so let’s let them. Herein, I’ll use truth, honesty, fact-based arguments, Jesus’ example of love, and a goodly dose of humor, to work to preserve the American experiment that I do so love. As usual, Jesus said it best!
“You shall know the truth, and the truth shall set you free.” ( John 8: 32)
