The Authorized Biography Of The Greenes
Written byMike Collins
This is a great book about a beloved Southern Gospel family. Mike Collins has authored a very deep yet compassionate book about the Greenes. He starts at the beginning with the life and dreams of Dad, Everett Greene. You will see how the family develops and grows into Everett’s dream. You will see how that dream is passed on to his children. Tim, Kim, and Tony.
Mike leads you through their triumphs and disappointments. You will go with them as they find their future mates and the complications of combining two musical families. You will go through all of the personnel changes and the tough decisions in making those choices.
Also in this book you will live through the births of their children as well as the battle that Tim has been facing healthwise. You will certainly have a better understanding of where this family has been, where they are and where they are going. You will even get some funny funeral parlor stories from Tony, and some of the embarrassing moments that TaRanda must face being the wife of Tony Greene.
All in all you will laugh and cry as you enjoy reading this book about a well loved family in Southern Gospel Music. If you still have special present that you need to buy for that Southern Gospel Music fan, this one will be perfect.

I have to agree with your article. I was very pleased with the book and i love this family. What an awesome story and testimony this family has. They have touched my life time and time again throughout the years. I love this family and they are in my prayers every day.
FIVE STARS! FIVE STARS! I bought this title at the Singing Greenes' Gospel Jubilee last fall, signed by Tony, Kim and TaRanda. Tim even signed my copy before the concerts started. I couldn't put it down! I read it ALLLL in one long night. Get yourself a copy!
I wanted to thank you for the wonderful comments about this book. The review really touched my heart.
I weeped over some of the things this precious family went through. For example, I never realized what a difficult thing it was for Kim to leave the Greenes and join the Hoppers. That whole situation was so tention-filled and sad I struggled to continue. On the other hand, Tony Greene is one of the funniest humans on the planet!
I LOVE the Greenes, and I look forward to reading this book. I am purchasing a copy next time I see the GREENES in concert. I have met them all in the past and I think they are the real deal. My thoughts and prayers are with Tim Greene at this time.
I love this trio. The book? SIX STARS!!! A must!
It's a really good book, and of course I like the Greenes a whole lot. Of the groups out there that desrve accolades and positive press, the Greene family is one of them, when you consider what they've gone through. May God continue to bless them!
FIVE STARS! SIX STARS! Oh shoot, let's make that TEN STARS! Great book. Great trio!
I don't have this book but I certainly hope to get it someday!! I LOVE THE GREENES!!! They are one of my VERY favorite groups!!!!
Excellent book. Great Family!
Gosh! I really enjoyed this book. This Gospel Music family - Tim, Tony, TaRanda, and Kim - has faced challenging difficulties and enjoyed wonderful blessings through their career in Southern Gospel music. Kim "Greene" Hopper now tours with The Hoppers! But she and her brothers tell what it was like to tour as youngsters.
Cool book. Finally Southern Gospel Artists are being recognized on a national level. Besides Bill Gaither's Homecoming Friends' book, this is the first book I've seen in my local bookstore pertaining to a traditional Southern Gospel Group. BRAVO!
I think this book would be pertinent to anyone who is going through difficulties and physical or spiritual challenges. This family, the Greenes, have had their share of heartache and they share their innermost feelings in the pages of "Hold On."
I got this book and liked it. I also bought their album Whoever believes. I like it too. I have aways liked gospel music and this is one of my favorite singers.
They are very good. The book is a good one. I got it for Christmas and it did not take me long to read it at all.
As co-founder of Woodland Gospel Publishing and publisher of the work, "Hold On," I am so delighted to hear the kind words from Southern Gospel News readers. Mr. Collins, author of the work, is a wonderful writer and associate. Most importantly, the Greenes are an inspiring family with a powerful testimony to share. The Greenes live what they sing about!
I enjoy reading about southern gospel artists. This book is a nice book about a nice bunch of people. Thanks.
