Ben Issac, you have such a great smile! It’s contagious!!!
Jimmy Fortune has one of the greatest voices in the world. He doesn't just sing. He tells you a story and pulls at your heart strings. God anoints the sound and touches the heart.
Don’t leave Mark out. 🙂
Absolutely. I had one of his CDs played /sung at my husband’s Celebration service. Love his songs and his voice , how he sings. Just beautifully amazing.
My son and I saw Jimmy at a very small church in Hamilton Ontario Canada 10 years ago, it was just him and his fiddle player they played for a small crowd. Oh I am so Thankful for that opportunity. He was absolutely fantastic. He sang for Jesus. He spent lots of time with the audience afterwards and my son sat at the table with him while he signed autographs. He called my son his side kick. Jimmy is truly a Godly man and a gentleman.
Yes Jimmy it is GODS WORD!
I was always told by my pastor and my Dad, give it to God and don’t take it back!
If the Isaacs never felt the painful side of this world, their music could not have the healing passion it does to those who will listen to the Cure!!!
Jesus, Father and The Holy Ghost, are using the wonderful sound, God, orchestrates in and around these folks, to strengthen, the hurting, in God’s Love!
Blessings and Peace

Jimmy you know you have been blessed!
My Mother was an alcoholic and after many years she added prescription drugs to it. She was so mean. I learned at a young age that God loved me. With God there were many things I overcame. I am so blessed. I now have stage 4 intestinal (carcinoid) cancer. I know God is going to carry me through this. I really enjoy listening to Mark Lowry and now being in touch with Dinner Conversation and so many great Christian people. I even have a Christian Cardiologist. God does love us all!
Jimmy, you really do have a gift. A great gift!
God bless you, Jimmy Fortune
Jimmy Fortune still has a fantastic voice. I've been listening to a lot of Statler Brothers music lately and appreciate Jimmy's contribution to the group.
Yes he does and I don't think he gets enough recognition for his beautiful singing
In the last couple of weeks I have watched rewatched and rewatched again several of the songs that Ben, Jimmy, Brad and Mike have sang together many of which are not Christian songs and these four are absolutely one of the very best I have ever watched. The four together have the best harmonies, smiles and I would love to sit in a conversation and listen to them.
I am looking forward to see them someday in Michigan!
Brotherly Love came from God and it’s beautiful!
Dear dear dear brother you will never know what a blessing you and your music is I’m a musician and a singer and a jack of many trades including an artist I love the the lord with all my heart I’d love to meat you I just saw Ben at world outreach in Murpheesboro in person and I shook Rory Feeks hand that morning and what a blessing I’m thinking God really is wanting to use me
Great song by the Issacs about “Thanking You For Touching Me Today.”
Jimmy Fortune sang at my cousin's funeral years ago. I never got the chance to meet him, but I have always wanted to. I would give almost anything to sing with him just one time.
BEST OF THE BEST🕊☝️Beautiful. Thankyou and Blessings from AOTEAROA New Zealand🙋♀️
Awesome conversations with Jimmy and Ben! Their testimonies are powerful proof that God doesn't give up on us, and He can make the impossible POSSIBLE!
What a wonderful Dinner Conversation. Everyone in the world has issues at some point in their lives but hearing the stories of how the Lord took on our darkest hours and showed us the light and they way inspires belief and love for one another !
Amen.. God sent me through AA before I could go to church. Church shamed me with being a “sinner” when what I needed was Gods love . I found it in AA🙏❤️
Beautiful testimony Jimmy Fortune! Thanks fellas for the invite to dinner conversations!
Thanks for joining us!
Ben you are one of the greatest man, I know! God bless you and your fa.ily! 😍
I don’t recall if I have seen this interview or not, but as I watch now, I am so grateful for you, Mark and Andrew. Thank you for bringing real, authentic conversations to the table. I walked the path of addiction recovery with my dad for the last 10 years of his life. It’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done. And yet, I cherish those memories, as I learned more about dad, about the addiction, behavioral pattern, and about myself. Blessings 🕊☀️
Great interviews. Jimmy Fortune has so much talent. I love his version of Just a Closer Walk with Thee. Ben Issac is so adorable and talented.
Two amazing interviews with two humble, open, mega talented guys. What a blessing. Thanks Mark and Andrew.
Great perspectives from Jimmy Fortune and Ben Isaacs. I can relate to both of them.
Love to hear Jimmy sing , I Believe ❤️❤️❤️💕💕💕💕
We are supposed To Share with Each Other our thoughts and Prayers🙌🙌🙌/ God Made us to Support each Other❤️❤️❤️❤️
Fantastic! I don’t think it can get any more authentic, gracious and loving than Jimmy’s and Ben’s conversation. God is So good!
What a blessing each of these songs were; and sung so beautifully!
Thank you🙏
Best conversation since I've been watching your program. Thank you.
I have always liked Jimmy Fortune, I just didn’t know his name. Wonderful interview.❤️
Love Jimmy & Ben. Great interviews!
Great episode gentlemen. Another episode that hit close to home for me. I felt like both Jimmy and Ben were sharing my own story. God is so good ! Everyone needs to tune in to that still small voice calling out to us as individuals. Reading the Bible and prayer brings peace like so many are searching for. Love and appreciate all that y’all do.
My father was an alcoholic and it has scarred me for life. He was nasty and bitter and strapped us just because he could. We could not bring our friends home because it would be too embarrassing. I have never understood why my beautiful mother stayed with him! They are both dead now and I doubt that he went to the same place as my mum did. I am now 75 and alcohol has never passed my lips and I never hit our two boys and have a loving friendship and mutual respect with both of them as I do with my wife of 54 years.
My Childhood also. I Respect You. God Bless!
Jimmy Fortune has been a huge blessing my life. Thank you for this interview. It just made my love and respect for Jimmy grow to even greater heights. Thank you Jimmy for what you mean to me.
Hello Cynthia how are you doing
must be hard to eat and be filmed at the same time thanks Mark and friends and got to talk to Jimmy via facebook about a song he wrote Elizabeth
Best hour I've spent. Sure glad I stumbled upon it. God Bless!
I donated im so glad i helped Ethiopia !
I will never forget the first time I heard the Isaacs! I was brought to tears and trembling. I was raised by a Mother who was in Sweet Adeline’s and taught harmony, first.
My sister in-law sings with Sweet Adeline’s
Thank you all for sharing your stories with us.
Waiting on Jimmyfortune book!!!
This is what I needed to hear today. I Lost my son on Christmas day 2020 to a overdose & I have been struggling with it, being a parent it has shredded me literally. I have learned to give it to God.
Saw your message n I'm sorry. Praying for you
@@susieq5171 God bless you, I still have a tough time every now and then. I've turned in over to the Lord and he has carried me, that's the only way I've kept my sanity.
Just rewatched this; this never gets old. Love you Mark!
I loved the conversation with Jimmy and also Ben, they are both so wise in the things of Jesus and how he intercedes in their lives.I love Mark, he is so special and loving and Andrews insights are just right on, things I feel but cannot put into words. Your words speak to my heart. Thank you, great conversations !!
Thank you for tuning in each week!
Wonderful interviews….
Thank you for this wonderful episode! Greetings from Mexico City!
Your prayer answers my question. Thank You!
Hope you all had a good easter
Hello Hannah how are you doing
Loved this so much. It really hit home for me!❤️
Oh my! Thanks for sharing!!!!
I miss seeing you mark !
Great programa. Hi, from Brazil.
Happy Belated Easter ✝️✝️
Happy Easter late!
Someone once asked me if everyone will be able to sing in Heaven. My immediate reaction was YES, we will all be great singers in Heaven. Upon further thought, I don’t think everyone will be a beautiful singer in Heaven. If everyone is a perfect singer, how can we appreciate it. Perhaps everyone will be perfect at something but not at everything. So we can appreciate the gifts of others…….I just don’t know, but I know it will be wonderful. Just things I think about.
I pray Jimmy Fortune gets even closer to Jesus & that all his songs will lift up the name of Jesus and what He has done & can do. The Bible IS GODS WORD & He wants us to Live for Him. The thing one needs to know is God HATES a mixture- which means you cannot mix the world in with God. God wants ALL of you !!! He will not accept ‘part of you or part of your heart b/c that’s a divided heart. …straddling the fence . Must choose Jesus totally.
When i see the sun in the morning
Beautiful song, I love this song, Jimmy
☺️🙏💜
Just catching up and praying for all of you
Hello Julie how are you doing today
They mention here about what Bill Gaither thinks of The Isaacs individually. I think it is very rude of Mr Gaither to pass judgement on this wonderful family especially Sonya. She has a voice that was given to her by God and we are the better.. They say that Mr. Gaither is a control freak and if you watch his homecoming DVD's that will become apparent.
People who go through addiction or other worse things in their lives they have done. If they ask for forgiveness, do you think they get into heaven?
As long as you are not child trafficker if you are you are being watched ???
