Lessons From the Men I Teach at the Utah State Prison

Lessons From the Men I Teach at the Utah State Prison

Five things I've learned working in the Utah State Prison:

  1. People are good. Treating people with respect, even when their problems seem small compared to what they're facing, opens the door to real connection.
  2. We are not our worst mistake. That mistake is part of our story, but it doesn't have to define who we are.
  3. Extending grace to others helps us move toward our own healing. The inmates who let go of anger toward their parents seem to move forward more easily.
  4. We always have the power to choose. Kindness, our language, whether we fight. We don't have to wait for some future date to start living what we value.
  5. Real change is about you and your relationship with God, not about convincing other people you've changed. Lasting change comes from wanting to be different, not from proving it to someone else.
