The 46-year-old musician shared this news through an emotional video on the band&#8217;s social media platforms, expressing unwavering faith amidst the adversity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Though <strong>3 Doors Down<\/strong> isn\u2019t categorized as a Christian band, Brad Arnold\u2019s heartfelt message and open expression of faith resonates deeply with the spirit of hope and belief we champion at Heaven\u2019s Metal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">&#8220;We serve a mighty God, and He can overcome anything.
