About Tom Shanklin
After a dramatic conversion and deliverance from alcohol and drug abuse in 1977, Tom was called to preach the Gospel of Jesus Christ to people of all walks of life. He is motivated by a desire to see people reunited with God, healed (spiritually, emotionally, and physically), and filled with a sense of their divine purpose in life. He preaches in a simple and practical way that people of all ages, nations, and denominations can receive. Tom ministers within the United States as well as internationally. He is the author of “You Can Touch the World: Finding Your True Purpose.” Tom and his wife, Susan, live on a small farmstead in southern Minnesota and have three wonderful adult children and six grandchildren, which give them great joy.
