Network.

It was a cold Friday night, namely, January 22 that a traumatic car

accident took place. After I had dropped off my cousin at home and

turned left into my driveway, I was drastically hit by another vehicle

broadside. (I'm told by a SUV and a distant cousin of mine). They

told me that I was cut out of the vehicle from a t-bone position.

My 90 year old, mother Louise heard a loud commotion outside

but she didn‟t see my return yet. She, in turn, calls my cousin, Jen

and ask her had I left her house? She replied, " she should have been

there already." My mother whispers a prayer and calls my other

cousin, Charles, who lives on the opposite side of the caution light by

us in Stokes, NC. He travels on the back road of the opposite side of

us. When he approaches the house, he sees the traffic lining the

highway but he doesn't see my car. The highway patrol officer is

standing in our driveway making an assessment. He questioned the

officer about the accident- finding out that I was involved. The driver of the car knocked me passed my

driveway approximately 100 ft into the nearby field. He notified my mother of what had happened.

After arriving at the hospital, my family says that I was answering their questions and that I was telling my

son, Javon, that I love him. But they noticed at that time I was in great pain. I was then taken to be examined by

the medical staff. The doctor over ECU Trauma Dept. stated that it was a critical (intensive care) case. My

lungs had collapsed, 12 ribs, pelvis, scapula, left shoulder blade all were fractured and with two concussions.

Immediately, the Dr. informed my family that it was a 50 percent chance of life for me and that I may not make

it through the night. My sister, Louvenia, said that she felt that Dr. S was sent by God because he stated that he

had to save her sister. I was induced into a coma for 8-10 days. This is when the news spread throughout the

United States and prayers begin to bombard heaven. Thank God for all that called out my name, screamed my

name, lifted up name before the Lord. No weapon formed against me did not prosper!!!

Seeing photos of me in that comatose state is much to believe with pipes, hookups, and various lines running.

Several told me that I look like death, others stated that I was swollen by medication. Most informed me how

they came in and joked with me or encouraged me to live, to be strong, and to fight because I have work to do

and how much they needed me and loved me.

I have been asked if I had a supernatural experience? No, but what I did see was a crystal purse in the

atmosphere. Also, I remember my mother, sister, son and James talked to me but what I believed being at my

cousin's home. The strangest thought was that I was in a red wire basket as a bed. (I do believe that was

medication). My family/friends told me after I came through the coma that I was concerned about my face and

that I would motion to my face to ask if there were scars but to no avail there were none. There was no

surgery performed. How Great Is Our God!!!!


My 25 conscious days of hospital stay.

After being further informed that I had been in a car accident, they told me it happened on a Friday night. My

immediate concern was where was my grandson Josh? Because the Friday night that popped in my head was the

Friday night that he and I had travelled home. Thank God that he wasn't involved. The other funny thing is that I

felt that I should go home for the weekend and come back. (You know that their were several chuckles on that!).

Having had any idea that I could not talk with a trache put in, I had to act it out or write it down. In order to eat and

talk, they had to put a piece of the trachea in my throat. Each morning before 7am, they came in to draw blood

(some days pleasant and a plenty not so pleasant). 90% of the staff was excellent. There were a few that were

cordial. I could count on the staff to come in 12 midnight, 3am, and 6am. I was tired of being interrupted those

hours but being on the heart monitor, blood pressure, diabetic check, temperature, tube feeding, routine checks it

was all necessary. There were pills (vitamins, stool softener, Tylenol and Percoset) every 4-6 hours. Even looking

back at my report, they were medications during the coma that I have no clue what they were given for. So there

are many times family/friends would visit me and I would dose off on them. I thank God for being alert in knowing

what was taking place 95% of the time.

But I experienced anxiety strongly in the wee hours of the morning. Sometimes I wondered if I would ever talk

again, would I ever walk correctly or be healed. I also would wonder how much longer would I be here? I thank

God for my friends, Mr. James and Mrs. Arrington and Ms. Cathy reading the word of God and praying with me

at night.

But God!!!! Through the prayers of the saints... I began to progress, exceed the mental and physical tests given

and ride in the pink Cadillac (which was a class one bed that folded into a chair). My doctors told me that I was

recovering speedily and that the good master was with me. Catheters were removed, the trache was removed,

monitors were disconnected and my vocals remained strong. I remember always informing the medical staff that I

appreciate them.

The hospital released me by ambulance to return home (this time less stressful). Home and physical therapists

were assigned to my case. I was placed in a wheel chair and maneuvered around the house and places for about a

month. Five days after my stay at home, (March 5th) a portable ramp was loaned to me from Jarvis Memorial

Church (the Shephard Keepers). It was a bit uncomfortable for me sleep wise because I had to sleep on the chair

which was more accessible to the public. My average sleeping pattern was 12 midnight until about 9am the next

day. It was odd not being about to perform household duties, cook or go outside. But I did spend time reading and

mediating the word, praying and singing a song in my heart. Being forever grateful is a great lesson I have learned

through this situation. Through the outcome of the pelvic tests given, I graduated from the wheel chair to the

walker to the cane. Eventually, I was honored to be able to sleep on my side and stomach. I'm now praising God,

speaking his word, giving my testimony and 85% back to normal body wise because we must remember the body

was not operative for nearly two months. Therapy has allowed the lazy muscles too loosen.

The Lord is my refugee, my strength, my healer, my substainer and the lifter of my head.

"The angels of the Lord encamped around about me and the blood of Jesus is upon me."

Thank you very, very much for all you have done for me.


For a man who has declared that he may at any moment cease

making music to concentrate fully on his passion for ministering,

Donnie McClurkin can never stay away long from recording

profoundly uplifting music for the soul. The evidence: his latest

collection We All Are One (Live in Detroit) - his breathlessly

anticipated first music recording in five years! Along for the

momentous celebration are very special guests CeCe Winans, Yolanda

Adams, Mary Mary and Karen Clark-Sheard. Once again, Donnie,

his singers and musicians share the joy of God’s bounty - live before

an on-fire congregation where platinum-plus Pastor McClurkin’s

vocal and testimonial gifts have always shined their brightest.

“I decided to record in Detroit after much prayer. I put a lot of

thought into the cities we record,” Donnie shares. “My mentor Andrae Crouch made one of his best CDs live in London,

so I did the same thing some 20 years afterwards (resulting in the platinum Live in London…and More CD which

included Donnie‟s now classic anthem “We Fall Down”). I recorded my CD Again in California because my first time

ever being given a platform in someone else‟s church was 1982 in Los Angeles at West Angeles Church of God and

Christ. Recording in Detroit this time goes without saying because that‟s home! I was there for 13 years and was a charter

member at Perfecting Church which was founded by Marvin Winans. Even with Detroit‟s tough transitions and hard

situations, the church has always been the mainstay that holds everything together. By bringing this recording to Detroit

and bringing the churches together there, we can aid in the healing of that city.”

The themes of the 12-song We All Are One are of unity and tolerance. Donnie explains, “Jesus said, „A house

divided against itself cannot stand,‟ yet we remain disconnected: Republicans and Democrats, Blacks, Whites, Yellows

and Browns, Baptists and Methodists, Lutherans and Episcopalians… Where is the unity? Coming from a religious

background, I was taught to judge harshly, but my thinking now is, „Let God do the judging so that I may learn how to

love and understand the ways in which we are all connected.‟ I believe that lesson of compassion and fellowship will

ultimately be learned by the young ones coming behind me. For my song „We All Are One,‟ I brought in Asaph Ward –

one of the greatest producers in gospel music – and we came up with a „World Beat‟ to unite the masses. At the end of

the song, adult voices fade into children‟s voices singing, „We all are one in The Lord,‟ driving home the point that you

have to come to Him as a child.”

We All Are One (Live in Detroit) is a boldly eclectic collection from McClurkin, moving from the powerfully

opener “Trusting in You” and the lilting call and response vibe of “You Are My God and King” (featuring a playful

battle of the choir sections on the “Reprise”) to the soul-soothing “Let the River Flow” and a duet with the ever-amazing

Karen Clark-Sheard for “Wait on The Lord.”

Donnie enthuses, “On „I Choose to Be Dancing,‟ we incorporated many different feels - hard rock with the

guitars and strings for the culture sound, but we kept the rhythm section urban. And on my praise and worship „Halleujah

Song‟ - which God gave me on a Sunday when we were all up in church praying - the idea of praising God in a

succession of different languages just came to me at the last second! We sing in Dutch, Spanish and the African language

Yoruba. Oshe ba ba means „Thank you, Father.‟ ”

Among the most profound songs on We All Are One is the piano and strings meditation “All We Ask,” on which

Donnie weaves the testimonies of three different people, verse by verse, immortalizing them in song. Donnie explains,

“The first verse is about a young man who came to me trying to find his place in life, the second verse is from my

personal story, and the last verse is about my older sister Olivia, who was dying at the time that I wrote the song. She is

now deceased. I wouldn‟t let anyone else play the piano on it because I knew exactly how I wanted the music to be

interpreted, but when my sister passed I did not have the strength to use my voice. So I turned „All We Ask‟ into a feature

for my background singers who have been with me faithfully since 1996 (in order of appearance: Duwane Starling;

Donnie‟s younger sister Andrea Mellini; Sherry Maghee and Nancey Jackson –Johnson).


An undeniable standout is “When You Love” which transcends the church to speak about love on an earthly plane.

“That‟s one of my favorites,” Donnie shares. “We must remember that God didn‟t just make us spirit. He made us body,

mind and spirit. The song is inspirational - derived from the gospel - but based solely on love…how to love, what to do

when you love, how to act when you‟re in love… It lifts men and women out of the lust that‟s all over the radio and into

commitment, romance, even respecting your elders – the whole gamut! I had to get the ladies CeCe and Yolanda, along

with Erica and Tina of Mary Mary, to help me. It‟s a beautiful song without any risqué, ambiguous or alternative messages.

This is simply about the heart of God and how He wants us to learn to love purely.”

McClurkin‟s pure love for the Lord has grown through crippling adversity that ultimately fortified his faith ten-fold.

Born November 9, 1959, in Amityville, New York, his childhood home was mired in domestic violence and drug abuse

until an aunt who sang with the great Andrae’ Crouch introduced him to the musical icon who in turn introduced him to

his future. Young Donnie played keyboards with his church youth choir before forming the McClurkin Singers with

relatives and friends in 1979. Following a calling to preach, he never loosened his grasp on music. In 1989 Donnie started

the NY Restoration Choir and recorded the album I See A World, which contained the classic “Speak to My Heart.”

Two near-simultaneous events changed McClurkin‟s life forever. Just as he was appointed as an associate minister

at Marvin Winans‟ Perfecting Church in Detroit, he also learned that he‟d been stricken with leukemia. While battling the

disease, Donnie was signed to Warner Alliance Records as a solo artist where he recorded his pivotal self-titled album,

marked by a smooth sophistication in the production that couched his soaring tenor for a series of soul-stirring numbers.

Through BeBe Winans, media mogul Oprah Winfrey learned of Donnie‟s music and struggle, invited him on her top-

rated TV show , a golden opportunity that catapulted his CD to #4 on the gospel charts, recognition beyond the church

world and gold + sales. Donnie soon after signed to Verity Records where his first CD, Live in London and More, would far

surpass his solo debut thanks to secular radio embracing his gracefully reassuring “We Fall Down”. The song met with

international acclaim, made the Top 40 of Billboard‟s R&B chart and rocketed past platinum sales of over one million

copies sold instantly making Donnie among gospel‟s best selling artists.

He earned a trophy case full of Dove and Stellar Awards plus other honors including an NAACP Image Award for

Outstanding Gospel Artist. In 2001 Donnie graduated to establishing his own Perfecting Faith Church in Freeport, New

York, all the while continuing to release the magnificent musical works Again (2003) and the double-CD Psalms, Hymns &

Spiritual Songs (2005) each one garnering the coveted Grammy Award.

Today, McClurkin‟s commitment to spreading God‟s word far and wide is most evident in a last minute addition to

the We All Are One album titled “Purple,” composed expressly for Donnie by Darren Atwater and performed by his truly

inspiring Soulful Symphony in Baltimore, MD. “I‟ve known Darren for years,” Donnie states. “I was doing a concert in

Baltimore with him last year as a guest with his 40-piece orchestra. During rehearsal he introduced this new song of praise

and the minute I heard it I went to hollerin‟! I asked him what it was. He told me it was called „Purple‟ and he‟d written it

just for me. I loved it so much that even though we were 90% finished with the album, I made room to add this song, which

Darren produced himself. Darren Atwater is a genius as an arranger and conductor - manifesting real cultural exchange by

bringing classical culture into the gospel environment. He also leads workshops that introduce young African Americans to

acoustic instruments and the works of Chopin and Bach without a Pro Tools in sight! It gives them inspiration to maybe

pick up a viola or a cello that they may never have experienced within their monoculture.”

Still, at the end of the day, Donnie McClurkin has been and always will be a, card carryin‟ member of the Church

of God and Christ (COGIC). Donnie bears witness to this fact via the unfiltered jubilance of his soul on the CD‟s most

exhilarating number, “The Great I Am.” “Holy Ghost revival songs are our specialty,” Donnie shouts! “I was just over here

teaching some of the church members that stopped by how to „church dance‟…and THAT is the song I played! There was a

Bishop by the name of Gilbert Patterson who would always bring the old songs up at praise time. I wanted to write a song

just like that, so I sat down to the piano, started playing an old-time gospel feel and this song just leapt out of me! When I

got to the studio, the group was like, „This is so corny,” but I told `em, „Just sing what I tell you to sing!‟ That night after

Asaph got a hold of the music, and Trent Phillips and the band played it like second nature, the energy in the room just

exploded!

“I‟ve always been in awe of God,” Pastor Donnie McClurkin concludes. “I didn‟t want anything on my latest

offering, We All Are One, to reflect suffering or „climbing up that mountain‟ in the way to which traditional Black gospel is

accustomed. I wanted to luxuriate in and celebrate in the greatness of God.”
