Fans have waited two years for a new recording from this talented family band, and THAT DAY IS COMING. Releasing just days before the ever-popular Singing News Fan Awards on September 25, where The Collingsworth Family has an unprecedented 5 nominations (including Artist Of The Year), this highly anticipated recording will definitely be a "must-have" for all Southern Gospel enthusiasts.

More importantly, it is their desire to remind all people that the day is soon coming when Jesus Christ will appear from the eastern sky to gather His children. Join Phil, Kim, Brooklyn, Phillip, Courtney, & Olivia as they take you on a musical journey that celebrates the promises, faithfulness and awesome magnificence of a living God!

Since their first engagement together as musicians for a church camp in Petersburg, Michigan in August, 1986 until now, the ministry God has given Phil & Kim has expanded and flourished until it is a full-time livelihood that involves their entire family. Their boundaries of influence have expanded until they have sung and played all over the United States (as well as internationally) into their 27th year of ministry. Their constant, persistent attention to cutting-edge arranging, musical excellence, and a proper balance of spiritual emphasis are the keys to success God has helped them tap.

Phil & Kim's actual base of ministry began during their college days. Phil is a 1986 graduate of God's Bible School & College, Cincinnati, OH. This is the famous, 100+ year old college that is well-known within Christian education ranks for having been the American college where Oswald Chambers ("My Utmost For His Highest") taught. Phil also completed professional trumpet studies at College Conservatory of Music, University of Cincinnati and earned a Bachelor of Sacred Music degree with a double major in trumpet performance and music education. Kim attended Union Bible College, Westfield, IN where she was very instrumental in arranging most of the music that was performed by the college's traveling music groups.

Since that time, many ministry opportunities have come across their pathway. They have always maintained a public performance ministry, which for the first fourteen years included doing music presentations for church camps and extended-length revival campaigns. They have also held the positions of Ministers of Music, Hobe Sound Bible Church, Hobe Sound, FL; Director, Music Division, Union Bible College, Westfield, IN; and Phil was Dean of Enrollment Management at his Alma Mater, God's Bible School & College, Cincinnati, OH.
