Since a dramatic conversion and deliverance from alcohol and drug abuse in 1977, he has been used to bring salvation, healing, the baptism of the Holy Spirit and encouragement to people of all walks of life. Tom has a strong anointing on his life to preach the Gospel and is used in the word of knowledge, gifts of healing and other gifts of the Spirit. His ministry is an asset to local churches and Christian groups of all types, because of a strong conviction in his life of the need for the Body of Christ to come together in unity.

As an ordained minister since 1983, he has served as a pastor for 22 years along with carrying out his ministry of evangelism. In September of 2005, he stepped out into full-time evangelistic and missions work. He ministers to churches of all denominations and is also available to do outreaches, crusades, seminars, conferences and prayer meetings.

Tom travels within the United States as well as internationally preaching the Gospel of Jesus Christ and encouraging people in their walk with God. Because of the strong work of grace in his own life, he is greatly used to help people overcome their own personal difficulties in life. His ministry in the Word of God is down-to earth, straightforward, exciting, at times dramatic and hard-hitting, but continually exalting the message of the cross of Jesus Christ as the answer to people's problems. Often in the services, there is prayer for the sick and needy with many dramatic results.

Tom says, "The purpose of this ministry is to encourage people through the positive message of the Gospel. Jesus came to lift and help people out of their problems, not to beat them down. Often when people hear these positive truths, they are freed from a state of depression and fear and given new hope, healing and a fresh breath of life."

Tom lives on a small farmstead near Mankato, Minnesota with his wife, Susan. The couple have three grown children.
