Kirk Franklin has shared through testimony and his book, “Church Boy”, that he was adopted by his Aunt Gertrude Franklin.  Although both of his biological parents are alive, he doesn’t have a relationship with either of them.  Recently, Kirk had the opportunity to meet his biological father and what he shared on his IG page will bless millions.  Check it out:

  • So…..

    Two days ago, I received an anonymous call that my biological father, who I never knew, has 3-6 months to live. I’ve lived my entire life hating this man. He and my biological mother gave me up for adoption, and it left me never feeling good enough….to this very day. I took my hate for him and used it as fuel to be the best father I could be for my own. But what I did wrong, is I never took that fuel, and turn it into forgiveness….and that is wrong. Wrong for him, me, and the God I proclaim to represent. How can I preach what I don’t practice. So I flew to Houston yesterday to do that. It’s painful, it’s a process, but how disappointed I would be in myself for this man to leave this earth without being forgiven. He deserves to receive what God gives me everyday. Pray for him, and for me. God this is hard…I weep as I write.

God bless you Kirk…we have you in prayer!
