Prayers for the family of Steven Curtis Chapman

If you've been a fan of Contemporary Christian music, as I have been, you would be familiar with the music of Steven Curtis Chapman. Steven's music has ministered to millions and his ministry to encourage adoption has touch many lives. In a tragic accident, Steven and Mary Beth Chapman have suffered the loss and death of their 5 year old daughter, Maria. Details from a Tennessee paper are here. Maria's death was the result of a car accident in the family driveway, after she was hit by a vehicle driven by her older brother.

The grief from this death will be profound, and it will be even harder to bear in the public eye. Kindly pray for Maria, her parents, her brother and other siblings and extended family at this time.
