    The Legacy of Mark Goffeney // Dave Goffeney
    Mar 22 2022

    When Dave Goffeney got the call that his older brother Mark had overdosed, he was the first one to enter Mark's now empty apartment. Dave recounts the powerful scene of standing in that apartment and finding drug paraphernalia next to open bibles and devotionals. Mark, a guitarist born without arms, had a dynamic faith in Jesus. Growing up in a broken home and wrestling with addiction almost his entire life, Mark had a profound impact on Dave's life and walk with the Lord.
