Additionally, Bishop Sapp is excited for the world to see how his own love story unfolded with this beloved and late wife Dr. MaLinda Prince Sapp. See his post below…
Below is more information about the upcoming TV One film film, titled “Never Would Have Made It: The Marvin Sapp Story.” Chaz Lamar Shepherd (“Marvel’s Luke Cage” “The Game”) will take on the lead role as Marvin Sapp. Joining Shepherd is Ambre Anderson (“Power Book II” “Manifest Evil”) who is cast as Sapp’s wife, MaLinda Prince Sapp.
The Marvin Sapp biopic chronicles the prominent gospel music artist and preacher’s Michigan upbringing, battle against teenage alcohol abuse, love for MaLinda Prince, rise in the music industry and growth in his faith. Sapp came into prominence more than 30 years ago as a member of Commissioned and is widely known for his award-winning, chart-topping crossover hit “Never Would Have Made It.” Currently, he is an author, radio show host and senior pastor of The Chosen Vessel Cathedral in Fort Worth, Texas and pastor emeritus of Lighthouse Full Life Center in Grand Rapids, Michigan – the church he founded with his late wife.
“Never Would Have Made It: The Marvin Sapp Story” is scheduled for an August 21 release on TV One.
All great news, right?!
Congrats to the Sapp Family!
Any thoughts?
Will there be any mention of Dr Teleka Patrick in the biopic?
Hi Melvin,
Thank you for stopping by After the Altar Call. Actually, she was mentioned in the “Unsung” episode about his life, and Bishop Sapp talked about her. But the biopic ended when Bishop Sapp lost his wife.
