“‘Fear and faith have one thing in common: they both ask you to believe in something that hasn’t happened yet.’
Former ‘American Idol’ contestant and country singer Danny Gokey lived those words after his wife Sophia died due to a congenital heart defect during their fourth year of marriage.
“Sophia had experienced ongoing medical problems since 2005, but during a surgery in 2008 meant to correct the issue, she had a negative reaction. During a follow-up procedure, her heart failed and she was put on an artificial heart. She never regained consciousness and passed away soon after.
“For Danny, this was a devastating time, especially because both he and Sophia had grown up as faithful Christian believers, who constantly prayed for healing.”
In a recent interview, Tony Rossi, of The Christophers, examined the challenges faced by Danny during this time, including Danny’s asking God why He had not answered the his prayer.
