Unhappy Terrible Tragedy

Wednesday May 21, 208
NASHVILLE — Tennessee authorities say the 5-year-old daughter of contemporary Christian music star Steven Curtis Chapman was struck and killed this afternoon by a sport-utility vehicle driven by her brother.



This is so, so sad. She was one of their three adopted Chinese children. This is just so hard to understand.

We have our clock radio on "The Light", so heard it when I was not quite awake, was hoping I was still dreaming. So sad.

Unhappy

I am heartbroken to hear of this



I pray for the family, and especially for the brother who must be going through more agony than we could even begin to imagine.

May God use even this tragedy for good in the life of Steven and his family.
