Hey Pastor
Just want to tell you that your story is proof enough that GOD has no recycle bin where he throws us away as his children. When all men count us worthy of being condemned he redeems us. I now have aliving testimony of God's Love and mercy. May he Bless you in your future albums.
Thanks
Yandisa

Hey Patiswa, he came last year November, didn't you hear. I was there, powerful powerful indeed. He promised to come back though but I am concerned because the year is over and we did not hear a thing. Hope he will come before end of February.
Pastor Donnie, you are a blessing.

Pastor, I want to commend you on spreding the gospel(the true), God is a God that he can not lie and it's evident that he has did a wonder work in you. I also have a daughter that is dealing with issue and I'm standing on God's promise I know that she'll be delivered in God's time. But may God continue to bless you and your ministry. I pray that more ministers would preach the true and not their true. The word can't return void.

As a former fan of your work, you disgust me. How DARE you speak and sing of God's love one minute and call ME and abomination the next? One day you will learn that hating me and other proud, successful Black (and other) Gay men like myself WON'T MAKE YOU STRAIGHT! Stop hating yourself, Donnie, and then -- ONLY then -- will you have even a hope of knowing God's love. I pity you, but you will NOT demean me.

David,
I will not condemn you but homosexuality is wrong. I would like to tell you that the bible says in the book of Genesis 19: vs4-vs11 & vs16-vs25 Sodom and Gomorrah were destroyed.
This is because God could not stand this sin. Man was created for woman and not man for man or woman for woman.
May the good Lord touch you and change and save you.
God bless you

David,
It is our mandate as ministers of the gospel to tell you the truth.
God still loves you but your choice to be gay is still wrong.
Pastor Donnie does not hate you.
He has been delivered and this is his stand.
My brother was black, successful and gay. Today all the money he made is not important.
We buried him behind our family church and the death certificate read CAUSE OF DEATH: AIDS
Do you have to be gay to have aids? No! I just shared my brothers story and our loss.
Great article Pastor Donnie and as always "I Love Ya"

David...Get a grip! Read what Donnie said..He spoke truth as does the BIBLE. The act of homosexuality is an ABOMINATION!..Get in touch with yourself. Donnie
is fine. He admits that you and those like you need to be loved and embraced until you overcome. Don't hate the player...Hate your game! Donnie is God's chosen. You are too..You've got to surrender! Peace!

Pastor Donnie;
The annointing God has placed on you is still breaking yokes in the lives of so many you touch. I thank Jesus for your commitment and steadfastness in ministry. Your humbleness is a great part of your strength. Confession is the key that unlocks the power to overcome ALL sin.
Thank You for your honesty and courage.
Be Blessed Always
