Mandisa Hundley Death News: Grammy-winning Christian Recording Artist Mandisa Has passed Away,
The Christian radio network K-LOVE first reported the tragic news of the “Stronger” singer-songwriter’s death over the airwaves before sharing the news on social media.
Mandisa — whose full name is Mandisa Hudley, died at her Nashville home on Thursday at age 47. The cause of her death has not been disclosed.
In a statement, K-LOVE Chief Media Officer David Pierce said, “Mandisa loved Jesus, and she used her unusually extensive platform to talk about Him at every turn.
Her kindness was epic, her smile electric, and her voice massive, but it was no match for the size of her heart.”
“Mandisa struggled,” he added, “and she was vulnerable enough to share that with us, which helped us talk about our own struggles.”
The “Overcomer” singer appeared on CBN’s “Quick Start” in 2022 to talk about her memoir, “Out of the Dark,” which chronicled her struggles with anxiety and depression amid her fame following her success on the 2007 season of “American Idol.”
In her book, Mandisa addressed dark and difficult subjects—like her near-suicide attempt—and how the Lord redeemed those broken things in her life for His glory and her good.
