Chris Tomlin on TIME

Posted by Kevan Breitinger Nov 20, 2006

In the article, “Hip Hymns Are Him,” TIME says Tomlin “thinks of himself less as a musician and more as a worship leader. Tomlin is the chief American practitioner of the pop-sounding ‘praise and worship’ music that has replaced traditional hymns in congregations looking for a younger crowd.”

Besides Tomlin’s first feature in the magazine, he also became the first Christian artist to eclipse 20 million impressions in one week at radio for the Christian format (Oct. 23), according to Christian Radio & Retail Weekly (CRW). This week Tomlin’s “Made To Worship,” from his Sept. 26 release and No. 1 selling album, "See The Morning," gathered 20,693,300 impressions, while capturing more than 218 million total impressions since August 28.
