“Will you help us to Honor a Mighty man of God!! Dr. Tim Godfrey!!! @timgodfreyworld Thank you to Dr. Sonnie Badu @sonniebaduuk for your nominations for an awesome Man of God to be honored @therockhillchurch”

Godfrey’s grass to grace story is always an inspiration to many, and he does not spare any opportunity to tell it. The singer only recently made headlines with his latest single Nara with American music minister, Travis Greene. The song was one of the most viewed on YouTube and most downloaded on other platforms soon after its release.
