Former American Idol contestant Danny Gokey first took the Idol stage just four weeks after his wife’s death. The singer-songwriter will share his story of healing in a new book Hope In Front of Me, slated for an October release. The book will be released via NavPress, the publishing arm of the Colorado Springs-based U.S. Navigators.
“It has been a gratifying process to be able to share the parts of my story that many people may not know,” Gokey says. “My hope is that people can find a part of their story in mine and that it will inspire hope in others. NavPress really caught the vision for what I am trying to accomplish and I’m delighted to be working with such as supportive, creative team on this project.”
