Fourteen years ago, Christian recording artist Steven Curtis Chapman’s world was turned upside down.
Chapman and his wife, Mary Beth, adopted their daughter Maria Sue from China in 2004. Just a few years later, when their daughter was 5 years old, one of the Chapman’s sons accidentally struck Maria Sue with an SUV in the driveway, tragically ending her life.

Since then, he’s gotten engaged, married, purchased a home and changed careers, according to KHOU-TV.
