Phillips, Craig & Dean: The Legacy

[@rampagex90]

As Shawn's nephew, I've been listening to Phillips Craig and Dean my whole life. Thank you so much for this small glimpse behind the stories of so many great songs. I'm so thankful for the example you all have set to always place God first and use your platform to glorify the name of Jesus. Much love from NY! - Justin

[@GloriaBarnes-dn9hf]

Can you share how they all met each other?

[@kathleenmccoy2445]

Your music is a ministry. Thank you for touching lives, healing, sharing the love of Christ. Your legacy is eternal. Praises to God.

[@tamarasue8937]

I remember you coming to Marion for the first time when my friend was dying of breast cancer. We had gotten a hold of you about Carla. You started the concert singing to her. She was bound and determined to be there, in spite of her pain. She went home to Jesus a few days later. You will always hold a special place in my heart for that beautiful time. Thanks for sharing His love for over 30 years!

[@theresawest9615]

“Favorite Song of All” is one of my favorites! The words are beautiful!❤

[@LeeNoblePC]

WE ❤ YOU GUY'S & YOUR SONGS❤❤❤

[@tomhewitt1468]

[@christian2085]

You guys are awesome! Thank you for blessing us with beautiful, godly music!

[@tonycarter-fp9gv]

I just discovered this wonderful group of guys .. What a blessing yall are ! Revelation song is the soundtrack to my life..🔥

[@kevinbrown3017]

Beautiful, I had the pleasure of seeing you years ago in Modesto California. Thank you for you gift of music. Kevin

[@bbarnett-bookkeeper]

I was a kid at Christ Temple in Irving when you guys started up. I remember you guys singing and when all that began, but I couldn't imagine that you guys had just started! I remember Dan being so kind to my mother at church through some hard times and loving the songs from his album - I Choose to Be a Christian, and my favorite was Thank you Lord for the Sunshine.

[@bluulak3]

What a blessing! You had to have known Bishop DeHart I'm sure! Pastor Dan has been such a blessing in my own life since they started in 1992! Heartland Church loves PD!

[@bbarnett-bookkeeper]

@@bluulak3 yes I did, great man

[@patsychew116]

Loved listening to all of you! Great stories. Thanks for all the wonderful music.

[@rochellecaffee1417]

You guys have given to me and others, the HEART of God. I never got it anywhere at church ,when they gave me more and more “data” or “head knowledge”, but you guys have helped me hear His heart for the first time, and what you given to us will last forever, because it is the Heart of Christ. That is your legacy. Thank you. I needed THAT. ❤ See you back at HEADQUARTERS!!😊

[@JuliaGonzalez-b3m]

I was introduce to the Promised Land Christian Church when I was about 42. That’s where I was introduced to Christian music having been raised Catholic I never heard Contemporary Christian music before. Talk about getting spoiled to some of the best music, best guests at church 😇. I was then water baptized by Pastor Randy Phillips. What a blessing. Love you guys❤

[@tammybrown7646]

You guys were great in Pa this past weekend!...of course sad to miss Sean Craig but understand. So very very thankful for you men. Thank you for pointing us to Jesus and reminding us of who He is!

[@lauramitchell6810]

You all made a big difference in my life the Revelation Song brought me to tears. You're all amazing and a huge blessing to all

[@alancummings5008]

When I need a lift in my spirit, I put in one of your CD’s, and immediately the tears flow and I feel God running to me Thanks for 30 years

[@marypratersmith9795]

Went to college in Austin. visited your dad‘s church so many times to watch the sign language to hear the wonderful music and hear that anointed Word. I have many funny stories to tell about that. I just enjoyed being there so so much. Saw you a few times at the ice cream shop. Just think you gentlemen are the cats pajamas. we lift you up and bless your name and pray for safety for you all the time. hope I get to come home to Austin sometime soon and worship again. I pray it’s soon. best to all of you!

[@tammybringle9586]

I’ve been listening to you for at least 20 years. My favorite CD of all. Love you all. ❤

[@justpassinthru]

Thank you for allowing us to really see and meet the real "you" to each of you. And praise God for His blessing on you all and your music for His glory. ❤️

[@stevescholl5479]

My kids back in their single-digit years heard "Crucified with Christ" so much, they asked who was singing it. I said it was three men, and I gave your names. They henceforth knew and recognize that song as the "three boys song." Thank you for impacting my kids for the rest of their lives with that incredible and anointed song. 🙏🏻🙌🏻

[@AgustaLCSW60]

I love your music. I have all of your albums. Please don't quit singing your music helps me rough times

[@rochellecaffee1417]

Thank you…so grateful to have been there during your music and your ministry. You are loved.❤

[@doweiitd9363]

I believe I hear the Spirit of the Lord in your music that is an amazing legacy 🙏 may the Lord Bless and keep you

[@rochellecaffee1417]

You guys are ALWAYS ON THE “playlist of my heart” FOREVER!!! I love you, and i always have….brothers and sister “in Christ”.❤😊

[@JamieRauschenberger]

Love your music! Been listening for years!

[@faiththao268]

I love you guys!!! One of my all time Christian band!!! Your music is amazing and powerful!!! Praise the LORD!!❤❤❤ Your songs always always bring me back to Jesus! Your songs are always true to the Word of God always lifting up the LORD.

[@lamalone1513]

So enjoyed this, guys! Thank you all, so much, for your music through the years. It’s always been so beautiful and encouraging, and of course, reminding us to stay connected with Jesus 🙏. I have so many favorite songs of yours… But the 3 that are surfacing at this moment are “ Mercy came running“, “ crucified with Christ” and “your grace still amazes me”… The messages in those songs pretty much covers your ministry… Thank you again, for sharing a part of your lives and your incredible songs with us… And thank you for being such Godly men. 🙏

[@kathleenmccoy2445]

just stumbling across you guys!!! Love it!!!

[@mayor-of-destinthanwork1001]

This was soooo good guys...bravo

[@susanakahlhamer2015]

Thank you for all the songs you guys gave us through the years!!!

[@jeffporter5935]

My all time favorite group! I heard you guys down in Florida twice. I was at a concert in Orlando, and I sat second row, center. Sang every word of every song. I have had three strokes in recent years, and the last one was on 12-01-23, where it almost took me out of this world. After having a Thrombectomy procedure, and the clot buster shot, I was in Neuro-ICU. It was a miracle, the doctors said. Now, I listen to "Your Still God" with a new understanding. God is not only the God of my mountains, but He is God of my valleys. It's in those lowest times I feel His love, and presence. Thank you so much for your heart, harmony, and ministry of music. You guys are simply THE BEST!

[@MarkBrantley-e5f]

I sure love you guys! My favorite Contemporary Christian group! Thank y'all for everything!

[@stephenpauly3624]

I promoted Christian concerts back in the 90’s here in Colorado. They had a song “This is the Life.” After a Sat night concert in Denver, I was driving them to the airport about 5:00am Sunday morning so they could get back to their respective churches. We were all still half asleep, and one of the guys looked at me with sleepy eyes and said “this is the life!” We promoted them twice here in Denver.

[@larryhoffeditz4776]

I don't think I've ever listened to a podcast as long as yours. Great background of one of my favorite Christian singing groups. You're up there with "Casting Crowns"... like you all are committed to their leadership positions in their churches. PTL for groups like that!! My best friend's son, David Kuntz, who has a ministry in East St. Louis, MO has told me about Shawn's support of his ministry. I lived most of my life in the St. Louis area where my dad Sam Hoffeditz pastored many churches and I also pastored "Beth Messiah" a Hebrew Christian congregation. I also taught for 11 years at Faith & Metro Christian schools. I currently live in Vero Beach, FL but have many friends and relatives in the area and go back there frequently. I'm a published writer with Focus on the Family and 2 other Christian publishers. My first book was published March 2023 titled "Hard Rock Facts for a Rock Hard Faith"... mostly scientific facts from the Bible presented in a unique intersting way along with some historical & prophetical facts. I hope to give each of you copies of that books when we see you at The Cove Dec. 13, 2024. I especially would like for you to read the chapter titled "A Different Let It Snow." It tells how a scientist at Colorado Atmospheric Research Center identified and recorded finding two identical designed snowflakes. I thought I would jokingly tell you you would have to change the line "A million snowflakes gently fall, but no two are the same" in your song "How Great You Are." I mention in my book "Do you think God in His snowflake workshop said 'Opps!' when twin snowflakes fell? No, He was just seeing if we were paying attention." Also, so what, no big deal two identical snowflake designs among billions that fall every year. How incredulous our awesome God is!!! Keep up your great work in praising our Lord Jesus Christ the one & only true God & Savior!!! God's richeast blessings to each of you! Larry Hoffeditz [phone] [e-mail]

[@angelatweedle4662]

I would just like to say how much my husband and I are enjoying your music. We have been listening to all of you since 1996. We appreciate yall very much. Jesus loves you.

[@angelatweedle4662]

I give all of you 10 stars. I love your stories. God Bless

[@alexasandford6673]

Awesome story.

[@caregiverentrepreurreimagined]

I grew up listening to Philips, Craig, and Dean with my father who was friends pastor for 33 years. He went to be with Jesus over a year ago but Iistening to your music has brought back sweet memories and comfort in my grief as my Mama passed away two years before Daddy. One of my favorite songs by far is Mercy Came Running.

[@bemoguy]

I just watched your interview with Brother Bill Gaither. I loved it! I had no idea that you were 1/3 of Phillips, Craig & Dean!

[@debbiewood3819]

...my husband and I, LOVE, Phillips, Craig and Dean!

[@johnhensman41]

We are grateful for your group and give you a 5 star rating

[@renapoulson4000]

I have loved Phillips Craig and Dean since I first heard Turn Up The Radio. Y'all are definitely a blessing!!! I met y'all on year at KLTY Celebrate Freedom and it was one of my favorite moments from going to Celebrate Freedom. Thank you for all the music and ministry. ❤ I love all your songs but my all-time favorite is "Can I get a Witness" 🎵🎤❤️🫶 I recently found this podcast and absolutely love it!!!!❤️

[@MabelAlcantara-v7d]

☆☆☆☆☆ Am so blessed by your songs.

[@WentonBuckley]

Wow y'all sing so good together

[@johnhorton356]

Y’all have been my favorite group since I heard y’all sing midnight oil. My grandma had recently passed and midnight oil convicted me about my prayer life. I made things right and have never looked back. I have all of y’all’s albums and y’all are still my favorite. Y’all are anointed and are full filling the call GOD has on your lives. I can’t tell you how many times your songs have blessed and ministered to me these past 30 years. Thank brothers. I can’t wait to meet y’all when we all make it home with our LORD JESUS. ❤🙏🏼

[@randyschuneman4422]

I will have to tell you how I gave Dave the hook. Thanks Dan for picking Pray Me Home.

[@rebeccaoller9526]

PCD is my favorite group. Your music was food to my soul that helped me to keep my eyes on Jesus. Thank you for your wonderful music and letting your light shine for Jesus.
