Tom's
leadership and ministry has been a real blessing to our program. We
have watched his ministry with our students, his counsel has always
been sound, well balanced, and very helpful to our students. The Lord
has used him greatly to help our students through the difficult
transition from addiction to sobriety.
Tom is a
caring,
compassionate, empathetic individual. I feel the Lord
has given him tremendous insight and wisdom. His ministry here at
Minnesota Teen Challenge has always been positive and helpful. Our
students have all enjoyed his ministry here.
I highly recommend
the
ministry of Tom to all who seek his help.

Tom Brass has been an in-person
counselor at Love Lines Crisis Center for approximately three and a
half years. His addition to our volunteer staff has been a blessing for
both Love Lines and his clients. We recieve comments all the time about
how much help he is to the people who come here. His counseling has
always been sound and practical. His attitude has never been less than
professional, and his reliability is without question.
Tom
is compassionate, caring, sensible, and reliable. He has been
blessed with wisdom and common sense. His work at Love Lines has been a
valuable resource to the residents of north east Minneapolis. I would
recommend Tom Brass to anyone seeking Christian based counseling.
In Christs Service,
Dan Morstad

I am a liscensed
psychologist and have been working for the last eleven years in the
areas of mental health and chemical dependency. I am also a pastor's
wife and familiar with the counseling needs of the local church. For
the last two and one half years I half worked at Minnesota Teen
Challenge as a Primary Counselor. Tom has worked with me in the areas
of counseling and deliverance, as a volunteer, two to three days per
week for the last two years. He is consistent and committed to the
students, as well as, sensitive to their needs. Tom relies on the Holy
Spirit for wisdom and uses the Word to instruct and encourage them on a
personal level.
Because of the great diversity of problems presented
in these students, Tom has had opportunity to experience many types of
crisis and need in ministering to them. His experience and availability
would be an asset to your counseling department, either as contracted
services or as a part of your regular church staff.
Sincerely,
Marjorie J Cole L.P. / C.C.D.C.
I have personally
known Tom since February of 1995. During the past several years,
I have seen in Tom, remarkable maturity and clear evidence of God's
call upon his life. As his pastor, I have watched Tom minister under
the direction of the Holy Spirit, and have seen the Father speak and
touch lives through him in unique and beautiful ways.
Some of the specific ways in which the Father has ministered through
Tom include the sharing of specific "rhema" Scriptures, and the
delivery of prophetic words through the Word of Knowledge, the Word of
Wisdom and Prophecy. Tom has a strong "prophetic" motivated ministry,
yet he ministers with great gentleness and grace.
I give my whole hearted endorsement to Tom Brass as
a brother in the
Lord and as a minister of the Good News of the gospel of Jesus Christ.
Sincerely,
Pastor Kris A. Koppy

“Don’t wait to get
a copy of Tom Brass’ latest book, Entering His Rest, an extensive
compilation
of insights and wisdom that I highly recommend to believers in the body
of
Christ. Tom’s words are relevant, uplifting, but most of all –
liberating. A
believer can find freedom in Christ, meaning in life, and spiritual
wholeness
by allowing the Holy Spirit to speak through Tom’s insights. This is an
important book you’ll want to share with those you love.” http://bachmann.house.gov/

Challenge:
I truly believe
“Entering His
Rest” by Pastor R. Thomas Brass is a must read book written to the body
of
Christ for such a time as this! Tom is a personal friend of mine whom
I’ve been
privileged to minister with for over five years as Tom volunteered his
services
to the students at Minnesota Teen Challenge. I am fully persuaded that
through
this book, Tom is bringing to people the revelation
that the greatest
dimension
of life we can walk in is “LOVE.” This writing reveals for us the
practical
systematic methods by which we may live a victorious Christian life on
a daily
basis. In other words, how to be a disciple of the Lord Jesus Christ!
It is a
must read for anyone desiring to more fully understand their position
in
Christ. I consider it an honor and a privilege to be asked to endorse
this

“Whether you
are
recovering from
difficult emotional experiences or just wanting to move closer to God
and
farther from sin, this book will bring you there. Tom has a remarkable
gift to
penetrate to the root causes of sin in a gentle and thought provoking
way. This
book will help believers to be made into the image of Christ!”
