How Sonya shaped the future of Stephen Curry

Stephen met his wife Ayesha for the first time in 2003 in a Charlotte church youth group. His mother might have contributed majorly to his religious endeavors like this as it kick-started a wonderful journey. That’s why five years since then, when they reconnected, they started to get along well instantly due to their history. Growing up in a religious house, the Golden State Warriors talisman displayed immense faith in the toughest moments of life. The lessons he had learned from his mother might have impacted a lot of that. Over the years even, he has used social media to promote his religious beliefs.
