Singer-songwriter tobyMac notches his 12th No. 1 on Billboard’s Christian AC Airplay chart as “A Lil Church (Nobody’s Too Lost)” ascends a place to the top of the July 19-dated ranking.

The track is the lead single from tobyMac’s LP Heaven on My Mind, which arrived in March as his seventh No. 1 on Top Christian Albums, with 10,000 equivalent album units.
“I am so grateful that ‘A Lil Church’ made it to the top of the chart, especially with so many incredible songs out at the same time,” tobyMac tells Billboard. “We are all in this together. I believe with all my heart nobody’s too lost to get found. We were never meant to walk this journey alone. No matter what you’re going through, remember, we grow stronger when we pray together, worship together and lift each other up.”
tobyMac, now based in Franklin, Tenn., had most recently ruled Christian AC Airplay with “Nothin’ Sweeter” for five frames beginning last October.
