In 2008, after five solo album releases, and nine with Passion, Tomlin made the move from Texas to Atlanta to be a worship leader for Giglio’s new church, Passion City Church, with its first service being held in February of 2009. Tomlin has since released four solo worship albums, two Christmas albums, and one live album.
In 2013, Tomlin’s seventh album Burning Light debuted at number one on the Billboard 200 albums chart, becoming only the fourth album by a Christian artist to top that chart, along with Butterfly Kisses (Shades of Grace) by Bob Carlisle, You Light Up My Life by LeeAnn Rimes, both in 1997, and TobyMac's Eye On It in 2012.
Tomlin has recorded some of the most famous songs ever in Christian music, such as How Great Is Our God, Holy Is The Lord, Our God, and Whom Shall I Fear (God of Angel Armies)
Throughout his successful career, Tomlin has won 22 GMA Dove Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, and a Grammy.

What I don't understand is that there is 2.1Billion Christians on the earth, why does Chris not have more than 10million subs, God has given Chris a gift to lead in worship, just mind blowing how little Christians care about each other and ones God sends to bless us.
@mariatheresaandaya9379
Forever.
That's a concept us feeble mortals have trouble with.
Forever is a very long time.
Forever means consistent with no break.
Forever is longer than a lifetime.
Forever reaches beyond time.
Forever is eternal.
God is with us and for us... forever!
