Tom was raised by awesome parents who loved the Lord Jesus. The family moved around a lot, active in different Non-denominational ministries. While in college Tom began to drift. His father challenged him to come home with him to come home with him to do a year of ministry with him with the All Nations House of Prayer. During this time he began to read about the spiritual life and prayer. Most of the writers were Catholic. This would be the beginning of Tom’s journey into a deeper relationship with Jesus in the Catholic Church.
