Godfrey, writer and producer of the popular song ‘Na You Be God,’ also went on to say, “We are built to be Fearless and this year is special for me personally because my music has mirrored Kirk Franklin’s. He is one of the biggest influences on my musical career. It is great honor to host the great gospel icon.
