Crist Family Bio

The Crist Family is considered to be one of the fastest rising family groups in gospel music today. Their blend of voices, great songs, high energy, clever staging, variety of music and incredible testimony is second to none. One of the most unique qualities of The Crist Family is their group size. Seven singers make up this mixed family group. With four women and three male vocals you will hear amazing four, five and even six part harmonies. The Crist Family is always changing their look in concert from duets to trios to quartets. Forty years separate the youngest member to the oldest member, so there is always something for all ages. From classic southern gospel to a more progressive sound, this group does it all!

The group began part-time in 1987. After seventeen years in ministry, God called this family group to a higher level of service. In 2004 the group sold all they had, quit their jobs and said goodbye to their extended families and relocated from Seattle, Washington all the way across the country to just north of Knoxville, Tennessee to follow the Lord’s call to full-time ministry.

In just a few short years, God has blessed their leap of faith and answered their prayers to allow them to sing a message of hope through song to thousands of people. They have already ministered in 28 states and Canada. In just their third year they were invited to sing on Main Stage at the National Quartet Convention and have graced the stage at nearly every major event in gospel music. They signed a major recording contract with Horizon records and were picked up by the industry leading Harper Agency for booking management. They have recorded six CDs and a Live DVD and have had amazing chart success with every song released to radio. They have had several Top 5 and Top 10 nominations by the Singing News Fan Awards for Horizon group of the year, soprano of the year and young artist of the year.

It is apparent that God has His hand on this group and has chosen to bless their step of faith for His glory. You will not be disappointed but rather you will be blessed as you hear this beautiful family group sing songs that glorify God and lift the soul and spirit of every person with whom they come in contact.
