I hope his career never ends. He’s been my all time favorite gospel artist since my childhood. His songs have brought me through so many things over the years. I’ll be praying for him.

[@dana1853]

Dude is legit one of my favorite gospel artist and pastors to listen to. God continue to bless and keep him and shield him from hurt harm and danger.

[@danishgilmer3695]

We all fall down! Nobody is perfect! And those who judge us now will be harshly judged when their time comes before him!

“People don’t appreciate you until you become real. Until you become transparent “

[@sunshinesunflowerz1647]

People rushing others' process; when in fact, they've always been real via actions but those that matter alienate them or tease them.

[@AtheneHolder]

this man is one of my favourite gospel artistes and I'm not religious... hope he's around for a lot more years

[@kerrydavis1544]

Love it...people don't appreciate you until you become real..until you become transparent

[@maryj4738]

We fall down & we get up. I sing it because it relates to my journey

[@bosslady874]

God is faithful!! Keep the faith through your healing and deliverance!! Being transparent breeds healing!!💯👏🏾

[@sexymama1966]

I hope that he finds the joy that he deserves and not torturing himself.

[@901thuggin]

You said in your own lyrics: Lord you promised if i keep my mind on you, you'd keep me in perfect peace....stay strong bruh! Ur my favorite gospel artist.

[@daisyandrews1664]

All Have Sinned and come Short of the Glory of God.

[@bosslady874]

Amen!! Being transparent using God’s wisdom and God’s timing reaps leaps and bounds of blessings to all God uses and heals! Keep the faith!!👏🏾💯

[@kjdnyhmghfvb]

If only the Church would sit down those members who actually a problem, there wouldn't be all these hypocrisies in the house

[@Truth_IAM12]

A great artist who is authentic… Do not change who you are Pastor Donnie 😊🙏🤴👑💯

[@CocoChanelle-1]

Donnie, God offers repentance to all. Who is man to end your gift? Love your voice. Don’t stop singing.

[@missnene8339]

I will never understand the silencing people in church for doing wrong. If you sit yourself down, that's you, but it's almost like saying, you can ask for forgiveness from God, but we have our own punishment for you. If God forgave, who is the church to judge in that manner to forbid them to serve Christ because of a sin that can be forgiven?

[@allisonkatlyn4846]

Wow. May God bless you and keep you. Truly profound

[@Truth_IAM12]

Bless you Donnie… Empress , Earth Angel 😇🤴👑🤴💯💎⭐️🙏👏👏👏👏

[@robleeg]

This song... I love it so much

[@mujimike4931]

Nice one Sir

[@lasavinegivens9295]

God doesn't judge us the way people do. Obey God , ask for forgiveness, forgive yourself and move on. When we leave this earth, we stand before God, not man.

[@graceamaattaagagara7396]

Uncle Donnie is a true minister and example of Grace. GOD is a GOD of grace. He sees the heart and that is where He operates from. He qualifies a person and uses them. And that is exactly what He did with Uncle Donnie. Psalm 51:17 My sacrifice [the sacrifice acceptable] to God is a broken spirit; a broken and a contrite heart [broken down with sorrow for sin and humbly and thoroughly penitent], such, O God, You will not despise.

[@jasmineharden5958]

He who has not sinned cast the stone! Nobody and I mean no BODY can judge anybody!!!!!everyone Falls, maybe not as hard as others but WE ALL FALL sometimes!

[@JaredEvans91]

He’s referring to having his son out of wedlock...obviously with a woman

[@pickastruggle6670]

😂😂 obviously You're funny

[@yattamook]

I pray he lives in his truth and enjoys his life

[@CoffeeCrazy]

While I love donnies gift, who cares what people say it’s what God says. Whether we like it or not believe it or not. We will all stand before him. And be held accountable.

[@NewRon2003us]

What was the failure we all human so remember that from your glass residence !

[@jennerial]

"when i fathered that child" ???? that was a strange turn of phrase. I guess they don't have a relationship. sad.

[@radiokilledthevideostar3329]

Exactly like not when I had my son or daughter when I fathered a child

Why doesn't this man just come out ? I aint no secret anymore.

[@missnene8339]

He already has. Either look at the whole show tomorrow or watch the other clips.

[@angelsimmons5384]

@@missnene8339 i thought he was talking about when he made a mistake & had a Son out of wedlock, Donnie has to realize, any mistake he's done or will do, the blood can forgive & cleanse, i want the autograph of the person that doesn't need the blood or forgiveness, & I'm glad he stayed as a believer & not leave, we tell ppl come to our churches, maybe we need to say Come only if you'll never mess up, God is the best Father, but i see Adam still messed up, & i know God was & still is perfect, thank God King David isn't around, the only different is ppl are on tv or famous, so we know their mess, thank God our secret thoughts & mess hasn't gotten on tv, i wonder how many would than wag their holy perfect finger, Not making excuses, just wondering

[@tndyamond2]

He said he had relationships with men and women on the full interview.

What I don’t understand bout us “Christians” can someone plz tell me where in the Bible that we follow it says u have to ‘sit’ a person down cause he/she did something that was what they thought was right?? Cause I remember correctly the God I know used the most corrupt hurt etc ppl for his will!!! Explain plz!!! And let’s remember we’re not supposed to judge right?!!🤔🤔

[@CocoChanelle-1]

It’s a man-made rule. The deal is if you are struggling with something you are supposed to go to the master and let Him help you and then preach to others. Why would I teach on adultery or something and I’m doing it?

[@kimme2852]

God loves us all..gay people too.

[@deangelusgrisby3136]

Now he understands what women go through all the time . Most men don’t get sit down in the church only the women .

Been knowing dude since he was 17 years old from Amityville NY .. Don't really care who you smashing .. Did you get your Vaccine yet ?

[@jeanetteNYC2020]

His career shouldn't have been criticized by anyone in the church because when pastors cheat on their wife they continue to preach and make money talking about their cheating

[@janentoiti5594]

It is well with Jesus Christ in our lives

[@JLPerryTV]

That’s what happens when you are living for the people of the so-called “church” instead living for God and who He made you to be.

[@jamestaylor954]

Why he thought his career was over is it because he like men?

[@glareblair]

Yes he's saying when everyone found out he was gay at the time. He thought when everyone found out that was the end of his career.

[@lisas8080]

Wasn't it about having a child out of wedlock? I'm aware of his struggles with sexuality but judging from comments there was a baby involved.

[@GMANKOOL23]

Donnie, you can be gay and you can even be in the Black church. However, you cannot be both gay and in the Black church because the Black church will never welcome you. The only reason that you're still in the Black church is because you're someone whose musical gifts they can use for their benefit. The Black church does not love you, they love your music. Period.

[@michaelthomas9049]

Brother Donnie, need to be true to his self... If I was near the man, I would give the brother a big party for coming out of the closet. With all his undercover drag-queen friends...
