319 - Backwoods Mafia and American Threads with Landon Turner
Walking the halls of the turkey show a few weeks ago, I was flagged down by today's guest. He was working the booth of Backwoods Mafia, an appareal company that has solidified their space in the outdoor market. Our conversation quickly moved to his other company American Threads, where he customizes appareal inhouse for clients.
But what really stood out about Landon was his drive as an entreprenuer and his passion for Christ. We instantly began sharing our faith stories there in the halls of the Gaylord Convention Center and today is no different. Landon has a great story of his faith driven companies and his faith driven life.

A lifelong lover of God’s creation, Jon is an avid whitetail deer hunter and outdoorsman. His passion for the outdoors has also led to years of involvement in the outdoor industry, including serving on the CVA Pro Staff team. For Jon, hunting is about much more than the pursuit—it’s an opportunity to slow down, enjoy God’s creation, build relationships, and recognize the connection between faith and the outdoors.
Whether preaching from the pulpit, recording weekly devotions with Christian Outdoors, sharing his testimony at a sportsman’s banquet, or simply gathering around a campfire with fellow outdoorsmen, Jon enjoys connecting with people and pointing them toward Jesus. For Jon, faith, family, community, and the outdoors are opportunities to serve, build relationships, and give God glory.
Jon would love to connect with your group for a men’s gathering, sportsman’s banquet, church event, or conversation about faith and the outdoors. He can be reached at jon@christianoutdoors.org.
