Chris Tomlin is one of the best-known Christian music artists today. In his own words, Tomlin 'writes songs to be a lighthouse'---reaching as many people as possible by opening worship up to everything it can be. In fact, rather than an artist alone, Tomlin prefers to be known as an artist/worshipper. His albums have sold over 2 million copies. He has six number one radio singles, fourteen Dove Awards and two gold albums and was twice named male vocalist of the year by the Gospel Music Association. Tomlin is a co-founder and worship leader at Passion City Church in Atlanta.
