Contemporary Christian singer and songwriter Chris Tomlin will be hosting his "Worship Night in America" events once again this summer in hopes of bringing people together to worship God and pray for the nation.
"I'm so humbled, honoured and excited that this summer Worship Night in America is coming to even more cities," Tomlin said in a press release. "Last year, we saw God move in incredible ways each and every night. The presence of God was so evident as the country came together to worship and pray as one."
Tomlin's worship events will take place in the arenas of Los Angeles, Denver, Chicago, Miami and New York. He will be joined by speakers and artists such as Louie Giglio, Max Lucado, Matt Redman, Matt Maher, Phil Wickham, Kim Walker-Smith, Bryan and Katie Torwalt, Steven Curtis Chapman, Tasha Cobbs, and DJ Promote.
The string of events will start on July 9 at The Forum in Los Angeles and then at the Pepsi Center on July 14. He will travel to Sears Centre Arena on July 16, then off to the American Airlines Arena on July 19. Tomlin will wrap up the tour on July 23 at the Madison Square Garden in New York City.
Last year's events drew in thousands of fans and sold out tickets in Madison Square Garden, Denver's Red Rocks Amphitheater, and Sacramento's Sleep Train Arena. Tomlin is optimistic that more people would attend this year's worship events and break previous records.
Tomlin has 15 No.1 radio singles, a Grammy Award and eight additional nominations, three Billboard Music Awards, 21 Dove Awards, as well as a platinum and four gold albums under his belt. The musician acknowledges that God is the source of his success, and he plans to continue writing songs that glorify his Saviour.
"I'm not trying to be stagnant or boring, but I never try to reinvent myself or so 'oh this is different' or 'I'm trying to change my music up,'" Tomlin earlier told STL Today. "I'm trying to do the same thing, but hopefully it sounds better every time with simple songs that cause people to sing and worship God."
