Thomas Beavers has also been the been the keynote speaker for a wide variety of forums which include but are not limited to the following: the Alabama Democratic Convention, the Southern Christian Leadership Conference, the Kentucky State University "Sexual Awareness Week," the University of Georgia Bulldogs football team, and many different churches across the United States of America. He also completed his first Christian rap album entitled "Taking Cities" in 2005. Among other responsibilities, Thomas Beavers is a devoted husband and a father of five beautiful children: Zaneta, Dominique, Kennedi, Zoe, and Micah; and one deceased daughter, Taylor. Despite all of these accomplishments, the most important one is that Thomas Beavers confessed Christ at the age of five. Although this was a wonderful time in life, it was the beginning of a hard road in which the devil would continuously try to kill, steal, and destroy his future. Although Thomas strayed away from God as a young teenager, God still had his hand on this young man. He rededicated his life to Christ at the age of 16 and received his calling into the ministry at the age of 17. This calling was not accepted until the age of 18 when Thomas could no longer run from God. After realizing that his arms were too short to box with God and his legs were not long enough to run from God. Thomas says, “I never just woke up and said that I wanted to preach; but now that I’m doing it, I can’t imagine my life another way. Preaching is not only my calling but it is my passion.” Above all of these things, Thomas Beavers is a humble servant of God who strives to let the light of God inside of him out shine the light that man may place on him. “Brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before, I press toward the mark for the prize of the high calling of God in Christ Jesus.” (Philippians 3: 13-14)
