Phillips, Craig & Dean Essentials

Full-time pastors Randy Phillips, Shawn Craig, and Dan Dean formed this trio in 1991, and since then they've become synonymous with tight vocal harmonies, crafty songwriting, and sharing the gospel through music. While the '90s produced a string of hit contemporary Christian albums like Trust and Where Strength Begins, recent years have found them branching out into the modern worship arena, yet their international popularity hasn't waned. The trio has scored 23 No. 1 singles on the Christian charts, earned several GMA Dove Awards and sold more than three million albums.
