Thomas Dickerson

After 26 years in "religion", including 8 years of being a full-time worship and youth pastor Thomas realized in April of 2006 that he knew a lot about JESUS, but had never truly been saved. In the early hours of April 1st, 2006, God met Thomas in a personal and powerful way as he was driving on I-85 back to Atlanta and it was that night that he gave his life to JESUS for the first time and was changed forever. Track 2 on his first album titled "Born Again" is his testimony in the form of a song. Thomas knows he's been given a natural gift and he's chosen to use this gift to share the Gospel of Jesus Christ with as many people as he can through his testimony and his songs. Every song on his album is taken from Scripture and Thomas is UNASHAMED to talk about JESUS! If you've never heard Thomas, this is your chance to experience JESUS through someone whose life has truly been changed by God's love and saving grace. His passion for evangelism and heart for people is displayed in this debut album.

Thomas lives in Cartersville, GA, a suburb outside Atlanta. He is married to his wife Jeanna of 3 years and has just started a brand new ministry. "Calling All the Nations" is more than an album, it is a ministry where Thomas and his wife have a vision to take the Gospel of Jesus Christ to the Nations, especially un-reached people groups who have yet to hear that Jesus is the "Savior of the world".

 

Thomas will lead us in both contemporary worship songs, beautiful hymns and sing his own songs to aid our worship.
