Marvin Sapp Explains Why His Reality Show Hasn't Been Picked

In an article on STL Today, popular Gospel music artist Marvin Sapp talks about a number of issues, one of which is his gospel reality show about raising his three kids after the death of his wife.

The show was shot last year and he has been pitching it to networks. In the comment below, he explains why he thinks it hasn’t been picked up yet.

“It’s not the type of show that has a whole lot of tension, he says. There’s not a lot of foolishness and debauchery.”

He was advised to add a love interest to the show to make it more interesting.

“I don’t believe the church is ready for that”, says Sapp, a pastor at Lighthouse FLC church in Grand Rapids, Mich. “A man of God dating publicly – some things should remain private.”

Well, yes, it seems that all these reality shows have some sort of drama attached to them. But, I wonder if people are starting to tire of all the extra screaming and crazy behavior. Who knows?

Hopefully, a network will pick up the Sapp gospel reality show really soon so they can join the ranks of Mary Mary, Forever Jones and The Sheards.

He also talks about life after the death of several important people in his life, using social media to find new songs and spreading information about ways to prevent strokes and heart disease in the black community.

Sapp says it’s always better to either give out food or provide entertainment when doling out information to the black community.

“We’re not gonna give them food, but we will give them entertainment,” he says “And hopefully we’ll save some lives.”
