Earlier this week news leaked that formerly gay gospel singer and pastor Donnie McClurkin was engaged to marry fellow gospel artist Nicole C. Mullen.
He was caught completely off guard when TBN’s Matt Crouch talked about the rumored engagement as if it were true on the network’s “Praise The Lord” show.
“Well praise God. Honestly, the only thing in my life that is missing is marriage,” McClurkin responded. “The only thing that is missing in my life that can cause real family, is marriage. Financially, I’m there. Spiritually, I’m almost there. Emotionally, I’m getting it together. But the only thing that’s missing out of everything that I’m doing locally, cross country and globally is that aspect that makes family, family — is that wife that would make man whole, that element that brings favor to man.”
The Old Black Church blog caught McClurkin addressing the rumors on Periscope. He admitted being in a relationship with Mullen – and that he loves her dearly – but said they have both agreed a marriage will not happen without counseling first.
