"May I give you a word of encouragement to make use of the talents and abilities of Tom Eggleston for your next event. We were fortunate to have him entertain our senior adults (over 60 in attendance) recently for their Christmas banquet. He relates well with all ages and will provide a God-honoring presentation that will encourage and entertain all those present."
Byron McCarty, Minister of Music and Senior Adults, Stephen Greene Baptist Church, Winnsboro, S. C
"Tom Eggleston has a way with people of all age groups. Using the gifts and creativity of music, text, theology, storytelling, clean humor, and Christian love, Tom engages people at the different ages of life and stages of the journey."
Jeremy Selvey, Minister of Music, Trinity Baptist Church, Conyers, GA
"Musically speaking, Tom Eggleston is a kind of “renaissance man”-- he is skilled in so many areas of musical performance and worship leadership! Our Sanctuary Choir hosted Tom recently in concert, and participated with him during the event. We sang several of his compositions, and heard a master at work as he played the ocarina, offered a sermon to children and grandparents and sang with them, performed (accompanying himself at the piano) several of his own songs, and created a wonderful worship experience in the process. Your choir would love to sing Tom’s music under his direction, and your congregation would be blessed and inspired to hear him perform. Ours certainly was!"
Fred DeFoor, Minister of Music, St. Andrews Baptist, Columbia, SC
"Tom Eggleston is something different in Christian music. In a sea of sameness, Tom's words stand out as having depth and meaning. Tom has a unique talent for seeing to the heart of a matter and for expressing that heart in song. Then he gives us an ever deeper reason to sing. You will be blessed by Tom Eggleston's ministry to congregations, choirs, and musicians. We definitely have been."
Rob O'Neal, Former Pastor, First Baptist, Lancaster, SC; currently Church Planter at Wooddale Church in Minnesota
"When the guest artist cancelled on our long-anticipated Piano Dedication Concert, Tom Eggleston stepped up to the plate and salvaged our celebration! In a matter of weeks he consulted with me to plan, rehearse, and perform a wonderful program of contemporary Christian songs, traditional hymn arrangements, fun tunes, and hymns paired with some of the great keyboard classics. Truthfully, our congregation would have had a more enjoyable evening only if Floyd Bill Seenyur, Sr. (Tom’s “alter ego”) had shown up to play the ocarina!"
Anna Beth Simmons, Minister through Music and Worship, Emmanuel Baptist Fellowship, Lexington, South Carolina
"Tom Eggleston possesses some unique gifts from the Lord. He communicates the message of God's love through his fine vocal and keyboard skills, and through his creative gift of music composition. I especially appreciate his spiritual warmth and concern for spreading the gospel."
Mark Blankenship, Minister of Music, First Baptist Hilton Head, SC
"There is magic in the music that Tom Eggleston writes. He translates his love for the world into song. He is truly a great artist!"
Bill Cates, Composer/Producer, Nashville, TN
"Tom Eggleston is an insightful composer-pianist. When he sings at the keyboard, he communicates as few can. His ability to minister through music is simply remarkable. There is another aspect to Tom Eggleston and his talent. We served together in a local church, and I observed his ministering in ways other than music. He visited, counseled, and worked with committees beautifully. I recommend his total ministry as well as his musical capability."
Dr. Tom Prevost, Former pastor, friend, Belden, MS
"I would recommend Tom Eggleston into your fellowship. Tom is excellent in what he does as a musician. He will inspire as well as entertain. You can feel comfortable with inviting Tom to your event or worship."
Bill Dieckmann, Director of Missions, Columbia Metro Association, Columbia, SC
"After seeing and hearing Tom Eggleston on many musical and humorous
occasions, every one excellent, I wholeheartedly recommend him -----"
Jim Smithwick, Director of MIssions, Edisto Baptist Association, West Columbia, SC
