Report Says Michael Jackson "asked for prayer" and Advice from Gospel Music Veteran Andrae Crouch and his Sister
"?He wanted to know what makes your hands go up, and makes you 'come out of yourself,' and what gives a 'spirituality' to the music?"
While some rumors over the weekend implying that Michael Jackson had become a Christian in his last days may have been overstated, the self-proclaimed "King of Pop" did seek out some spiritual counsel and prayer recently, from a couple of trusted Christian friends.

A spokesman for Andrae and Sandra said Jackson had been "asking for prayer concerning the anointing of the Holy Spirit, and how he could make his music more 'spiritual.'"
According to the report, the spokesman added that, "?Andrae and Sandra explained to him about the anointing and about Jesus. He wanted to know what makes your hands go up, and makes you 'come out of yourself,' and what gives a 'spirituality' to the music? ?He usually doesn't touch anybody, but he touched them, and held their hands in a circle as they sang and prayed."
Andrae Crouch's spokesman further clarified the report of Jackson accepting the Lord saying, "There was NO actual 'sinners prayer,' but they did talk and pray about Jesus and the anointing of the Holy Spirit."
