Summary
A riveting tale of unfathomable success, great joy, deep pain, and redemption that can come only from above.
From a working-class background in North Carolina to a job as a cook and club singer in Nashville to his "overnight success" with his smash 1986 album Storms of Life - which launched the neotraditional movement in country music - Randy’s first three decades are a true rags-to-riches story.
But in 2009, this seemingly charmed life began a downward spiral. His marriage dissolved, he discovered that his finances had unraveled, and his struggles with anger led to alcohol abuse, public embarrassment, and even police arrest in 2012.
Then, just as he was putting his life back together, Randy suffered a devastating viral cardiomyopathy that led to a massive stroke that he was not expected to survive. Yet he not only survived but also learned to walk again and in 2016 accepted his induction into the Country Music Hall of Fame by singing the hymn that explains his life today: "Amazing Grace".
Filled with never-before-told stories, Forever and Ever, Amen a fascinating behind-the-scenes look at dizzying success and the miraculous road to restoration.

Very good
I enjoyed listening to the story of Randy Travis. The narration was clear and easy to listen to and I learnt quite a lot about this great country singer. I recommend this to all fans of Randy Travis who just want to know more.

A man who was made to Sing
A story that I have wanted to know about. I have been a fan of his singing a long time before I followed him.
He took the country genre and turned it 180 degrees to make old time music... sound fantastic which also made many others follow his lead.
I did not have a clue as to his story and without question I was shocked by his story and his struggles..
The illness he suffered and all he has done to recover means in my eyes he deserves the title country Hero.
