Chris Wright, President Minnesota Timberwolves, Member of the Downtown Council, Minneapolis Regional Chamber of Commerce Tom I have read a number of chapters but not all of it, and really have no substantive changes or comments.... as a man of God you are a wonderful ambassador. Reverend Lonnie L. Branch “I ‘m Just Say’n” by the Reverend Thomas H. Vanleer, is inspired of God! His experiences in life has been tempered by the Spirit of God in guiding him in ministry as well as writing...May God continue to bless him! George Blackwell, Director of Community Affairs (retired) Qwest Communications The author of I’m just say’n has clearly captured the essence of what’s good, bad, and in some cases what’s evil in our society. By using biblical scriptures, Mr. Vanleer uses clear references to articulate the differences and in some instances the similarities of each chapter. I found the book to be very engaging, very informative, and very thought-provoking. I highly recommend this book for future reading.
