INTERVIEW
There is still a hefty trend in the music business towards praise and worship. Sales are still good, climbing even, and it seems that everyone in Christian music is either moving over to secular labels, or trying to get a piece of the Praise and Worship "action." But when you are dealing with something that is created to be set apart, not just a fill-in or a fad, what happens to the purpose? cMusicWeb.com had a talk with Chris Tomlin, one of the country's foremost worship leaders to try to figure this whole thing out.

ARRIVING (2004) Reaching a destination in worship should never mean taking up permanent residence. Instead, continual growth is needed. How else could the God of the universe be discovered by His creation? Instead of setting up camp on the first mountain, we should press on to the vast range we observe in the distance.
