Marvin Sapp's wife photos are being sought by many as of late perhaps as repercussion to the renowned pastor's shocking revelation last December 2013 about his thoughts on suicide. As an award-winning gospel artist and a Grand Rapids, Michigan pastor, Sapp was not afraid of confessing to everyone that he has actually thought of committing suicide after losing his wife to colon cancer.
Marvin Sapp's wife's expertise in and advocacy for psychological well-being were the main reasons why he didn't take his life about four years ago. That's what he said in his interview to the Christian Post.
"I can be honest and say I absolutely understand what these men of God have gone through. The pressures of pastoring and being in the public eye, losing someone you love and all of that. I find after reading through their stories that all of them are similar to mine in one way, shape, form, or fashion. If it's the pressure of ministry, if it's the pressure of losing a loved one, whatever it may be," Marvin Sapp said on the issue that three other pastors committed suicide after losing a loved one.
In 2013, three pastors reportedly committed suicide while grieving for the loss of their loved ones. Pastor Isaac Hunter. Pastor Ed Montgomery and Pastor Teddy Parker, Jr. killed themselves on different occasions. Hunter committed suicide on Dec. 10, Montgomery on Dec. 5 and Parker on Nov that same year.
Fortunately, Sapp intended not to follow the footsteps of the other pastors, despite losing his most-loved woman, his one and only wife.
Marvin Sapp's wife MaLinda was then said to be the primary reason why the Michigan pastor never gave up on life.
"One of the greatest blessings of being married to MaLinda Sapp is that my wife was a licensed psychologist who was also a college professor in psychology and who was a major advocate for mental health on the board of a mental health hospital here in our city," he said adding that it was a "natural progression" for him and their three kids to seek for professional help through counseling.
"Honestly, that's probably the only reason why I didn't take my life, was because from day one, and even now when it's necessary, I make sure I go and sit and have a conversation with my doctor."
