Bishop Marvin L. Sapp celebrates Dove Award nomination with his album You Shall Live for Best Contemporary Gospel Album.
Sapp previously won the 2011 Dove Award for Best Contemporary Gospel Song of the Year (“The Best in Me”).
“I am grateful that You Shall Live was named among the best contemporary gospel albums to be released during this year’s eligibility period. I have great respect for the work that the Gospel Music Association and the Dove Awards does to celebrate and elevate Christian and Gospel music artists,” says Sapp. “My life’s ministry and message is just that: for anyone wondering ‘why’ after encountering setbacks and obstacles – with God, know that you will overcome, that you shall live,” he adds.
