Claude McKnight of  Take 6 Addresses Rumors & Talks About Changing His Life

claudemcknight

Da Gospel Truth has posted an exclusive with Claude McKnight of the Grammy-winning Christian vocal jazz group Take 6 in which he sets the record straight on rumors that have been circulating for the past eight months.

In the interview Claude addresses things that have been said about him concerning a former girlfriend and borrowing money from her. He admits to borrowing $34,000 (which he said he paid back), having a sexual addiction, and some other stuff. He said that gospel music artist Israel Houghton is helping him get back on track and the 60-day online course, The Way of Purity, has pointed him in the right direction.

But when I read the following statement it took me by surprise:

I’ve already heard the jokes and been scoffed at because it’s an online course. This course has pointed me in the right direction of things I should be doing like reading my Bible, learning new habits and getting rid of triggers. But, it’s not the end all to everything I’m doing to get better. I had never read my Bible before in my life until I started this course.

What? Did he really say that??? Take 6 has been around since 1980 singing gospel songs, winning Grammy awards, and ministering and he’s never read the Bible? How does that happen?? SMH

You can read the rest of the article at Da Gospel Truth. I kinda got sidetracked after that statement. I’m sure there’s more interesting stuff to read in the article.

As I always say at least he’s being honest and moving on to a better life. To me that’s the important thing. Being honest with yourself and God.
