 Phil and Debi Jones are endorsed by Christian Music Presenters. Based in Nashville,
this international organization uses a rigorous process of screening, background
and reference checking, and auditions, to identify Christian artists whose integrity,
ministry readiness, and artistic ability they can confidently certify. This aids
music ministers, concert planners, and others in searching for artists they can
confidently bring before their congregation or audience.Here is what people are saying about Sunrise Ministries . . . "Phil and Debi are incredibly gifted Christian singer/songwriters who have a heart for Jesus and God's people. . . Perhaps even more than their musical talent, though, we at Lakehills remember the depth of faith Phil and Debi have in our Savior Jesus Christ. . . In a world of fear and despair, Phil and Debi Jones offer a word of hope and love from God. . . Above all, they communicate God's love for all persons. . . They are a joy to work with and to be around. When in their presence . . . you experience the love of Jesus -- for Phil and Debi so deeply embody their faith. . . I encourage you to invite them to come and minister among you today!" Rev. Teresa G. Welborn, Pastor Lakehills United Methodist Church "We . . . were most fortunate to have Phil and his group with us for a grand Sunday celebration. Our congregation was very much enriched by their presence and I write to to commend them to you and yours." Rev. Dr. Greg Rickel, Rector St. James Episcopal Church "Our church was greatly blessed by Phil and Debi as they brought a combination of music, comedy, and real-life stories . . . to our Coffee House Ministry. . . their ministry closely touched us by God's presence. I highly recommend Phil and Debi as greatly talented people with a great message of hope . . . not only entertaining, but . . . wonderful and non-offensive." Rev. Steve Cottingham, Pastor Alamo United Methodist Church "Phil's relational style and personable witness make him an ideal Christian performer for any setting and for people of all ages. Most importantly, he offers a refreshing witness in praise of the Christ who continues to redeem and make new." Dr. Gary Kindley, Pastor First United Methodist Church Colleyville, Texas "Not the same style we hear so often, but something fresh and original, uplifting and upbeat! Phil's concerts are celebration times, which will get people to tap their toes and smile. He demonstrates authentic and mature faith, and has a marvelous testimony to share as well. You will be glad you had him minister to your people." Rev. David Sweet, Pastor Hays Hills Baptist Church Buda, Texas "Phil has a unique background and style, blending his Anglo roots with many years of personal experience as a member of an African-American local church. He gives a compelling and inspirational testimony of the healing power of Jesus Christ in his own life. I hope you will invite Phil to bring his ministry to your people -- in church, schools, or community events." Rev. Jim Newton, President Celebration Shop, Inc. Phil Jones has a unique way of working alongside God to answer prayers and minister to lots of different types of people with his gift of music. His music ministry reaches all ages and stages of life and it never ceases to amaze me how God brings together the right audience to hear Philís beautiful music. Phil Jones is a true blessing, a man who has a heart for the Lord and only works to serve Him with his music. He is a treat to all who hear him and never a disappointment! Susan Mayson Grace Presbyterian Church Round Rock, Texas I have used Phil and Debi as musical entertainers for church banquets, as worship leaders for Sunday morning services, and as presenters in seminars, especially the powerful Healing Power of Forgiveness workshop that Phil and Debi lead. Phil and Debi are easy to work with. Further, they are accomplished musicians vocally and instrumentally. Their music is engaging and varied…and, most importantly, theologically “meaty”. Yet, joy and grace abound in their lyrics. I highly recommend them. Rev. Larry Howard, Superintendent McAllen District, UMC Harlingen, Texas |
