  • WOW! AWESOME FOOTAGE!!! PRAISE GOD!

  • Amen

  • what a testimony to the thousands who have lost their way its takes guts to bare soul like donnie sumner has on this segment .you inspire me Mate !

  • elvis got recomitted to jesus just a month or so before he died ,Rex humbart came to his house and elvis was saves that day in his room in his house in memphis.

  • When I was a child I remember Donnie and his sister at their daddy's church great times

  • J.D's Brother adopted him. Russell. Russell and J.D had a cousin name Frank Sumner and was Donnie's son. The answer is yes they are blood realted.

  • I believe JD was Donnie's uncle.

  • don't you just love these guys ( and girls) they're just so honest and transparent. God bless Donny for having the guts to tell his story. As to the comment that Elvis wasn't strong enough to make the testimony of accepting Jesus - well none of us is strong enough , that's why we need Jesus.We don't know what dealings he had with the Lord in the moments before he died and as the same person said 'we won't know until we get to heaven'.

  • Without the experience there is no such testimony. Wonderful to know it. Thank God for Calvary. If you just back up to the cross, you don't have to relive what is beyond it...you can start there and go forward! What a thought!  What God puts in bottom of the sea, no fish line can reach! Amen.

  • WHAT AN AWESOME, AWESOME TESTIMONY OF A MODERN DAY PRODICAL SON COMING HOME TO HIS FATHER WHO HAD NOTHING BUT LOVE AND FORGIVENESS IN HIS HEART FOR RECONCILED SON... THANKS FOR SHARING THIS HIGH DRAMA TESTIMONY...

  • amen, why i cry a lot listening to this testimony

  • Donnie - don't know if you will ever read this. I saw the beginings of your drug use at the music school in '72. Then you were no longer with the Stamps. I prayed for you for years, wondering if you had been snatched away by drug use. It has only been recently that I found out that God had cleaned you out and again you were serving HIM. Praise His Name!

  • Donnie found out what the bible says is true.Though your sins be as scarlet they shall be as white as snow THANK GOD

  • love of god is everywhere. not just the south or north or rich or poor. love is music  music is love

  • It very sad Elvis wasn't able to make it through his bottom. I think instead of people focusing on what happened to Elvis, they should focus on the fact that EVEN Elvis feel victim to a deadly disease. This devil doesn't care who you are or what you have. If you let him in he'll rob you of your life if he can. Thank God Donnie was able to turn his will over to God before it was too late. What a message of hope this is. Thank you for posting it.

  • Wow, I haven't cried like that since my dad passed away. I can also relate to Donnie. That was also God's Will for me to see this. I need all the help and reminder I can get in order for me to get another day clean and sober. "Religion is for those afraid of going to hell, spirituality is for those who have already been there". Just a quote by someone I agree with and relate to. It's funny how I just assumed these guys couldn't know the hell people like me have been through. Wow was I wrong!

  • Is Donnie Sumner any relation to J.D. Sumner?

  • @lovemywife37 donnie was jd's nephew

  • @hoover4000 Thank you! And thank you for all the wonderful music you put on You Tube. God bless you!

  • PRAISE  GOD !!!!!!

  • WHAT DVD IS THIS??

  • Joy In The Camp is the DVD.

  • What a powerful testimony! Praise God and thank you for saving Donnie. It would have been awful for the world to lose his awesome voice too soon.

  • wonderful! although my testimony isn't as dramatic, we all have to see how we were no better than the worse of the worse when we compare ourselfs to jesus. the proud and haughty beware.

  • AGAIN, I feel elvis wasnt strong enough to make the testimony of accepting jesus christ... we will never know if he did until we get up there..may Jesus bless donnie...

  • I hope you're wrong Stantheman. But Elvis is gone and Donnie is here. I pray he continues to testify for Jesus--the only Way!

  • @The777stantheman777 Well you obviously don't know Elvis then if you can say those things.

  • @The777stantheman777 we don't need to be strong enough to accept Jesus, we need to realize we are weak , fallible, and in need of Him and His strength to get through this life

  • great done...he opend his mind, soul and heart to show us how the lord touched him

  • I'm so bessed by what the Lord did in this man's life, and the humble spirit of gratitude. This guy would be a great interview for Bill O'Reilly or Mike Huckabee (Elvis fans), especially in light of the sad Michael Jackson saga. Folks need to know that even a 'king' needs the Savior. I pray the Lord opens many doors for Donnie to share the hope in Jesus Christ.

    I think Elvis would cheer:).

  • I am in AWE!!! This is the first time I have seen this and Praise God , I have been there......

  • me too,& im not proud of it,i was the prodigal son..He/said He would,and by the grace of God,i'm gonna live 4ever,..have you ever heard the song:Jesus,Have Mercy on Me...it's great,& glen payne is on here singing:"The Prodigal Son"/with Cathedrals,..have a blessed day...

  • I've been down a similar road and thank God I no longer have to live like that

  • with over 13 years clean and sober, I know exactly where Donnie was and thank God I'm no longer there!

  • Thanks for the post of a Testimony,

    God is good.!

  • I am so glad I had tissue handy these things need tissue warnings on them

  • God will hear your cries!

  • Wow did this come at the right time. My life is as much of a mess as his was. I need to make some decisions in my life that get me back walking to the light of Jesus

  • This brother comes to our church alot and he is a very precious brother who loves his Lord so much.We love him and his beautiful wife very much.

  • God is so Good!

  • one of the most profound testimonies i have heard of how an earthly father committed his very life to seeing a wayward prodigal son come back to God, and be used once again as a vessel unto honor. i'm watching this at a gas station and I couldn't keep the tears rolling down my eyes. praise God.

  • Awsome, just onreal what prayer can do.Praise God, for faithful fathers.

  • One wonderful testimony!! Praise God

  • God was there when I couldn't go any lower & saved me also. Praise Him for his loving kindness & his infinite mercy! I had a praying mother who petitioned God in my behalf. Don't ever give up praying for your lost loved ones!

  • Spectacular...I love it.

  • Amen!!! Praise God. Such a wonderful testimony to the saving grace of our loving Father in heaven.

  • This was awesome!See what God can do?Hallelujah!

  • Awesome

  • Amen what a wondreful testimony i will say again AMEN!!!!!!

  • Maybe we haven't all gone done this road but we are all sinners saved by grace, and I am so thankful for my musical hero's to let us know they are also human and make mistakes in their lives

  • Can't believe this video has been up for nearly 2 years and there are only 23 text comments. Can we, at least, hear a few AMENS!? AMEN!

  • Amen,Amen,Praise the Lord, God is good!!!!!

  • Great testimony!!!

  • what DVD is it? please helph!

  • it's from "Joy In The Camp"

  • Awesome testimony Donnie! God has a plan for us all, and yours was to stay on this earth, and spread His Gospel through that awesome voice of yours. God Bless You Donnie!

  • I love the point he made....God saw what I was going to do. Before the beginning of time. And the Day Jesus died on the cross...God Made a way.. Not for me to redo my past...But a place where I could back up to and start over... I claim that tonight.... Ya'll pray for me...I need to crucify my flesh and take up my cross.....

  • When the storms of life are ragging stand by me .

  • I'm still trying to figure out who the guy is in the bottom right hand corner at 1:14 :)

  • Through the blackest night and the strongest storm,

    HE is our Lighthouse.

    Thank you Jesus.

  • This is such a heart-warming testimony! Praise God that Donnie came back home! Praise God for a loving and praying earthly Dad. Oh my, I am about to start speaking in those Holy Ghost tongues! Praise be to God! Thank you so very much hoover4000 for posting this. It has really touched my heart!

  • Awesome testimony! Thanks for this beautiful man Oh Lord Jesus. Great testimony!!! Thanks

  • This testimony is as good a sermon as I have ever heard. God bless Donnie and may he sing for many years to come.

  • I love this man. Oh, for some reason it feels like he is the dad I never had. When I listen to Donnie, I relate to all that he says. He touchs my heart like none I have ever heard. I have suffered a little of the pain that he has, not for the same reasons, but pain is pain. He speaks to me as no other.You have shown me that God's love is never ending and all enduring and that his forgiveness is everlasting. Thank you Donnie. I love you.

  • Donnie Sumner is such a great man. He visits my church in Louisville often and is always a blessing. He has definitely been a blessing to me, because I ran from God also...

  • "Thank You" for sharing this video. Now I can use it and this site to spread the Good News with my friends and loved ones. After they hear this wonderful testimony, I think their lives will be changed too. My life sure changed after hearing Donnie's testimony! Thank You Jesus for this wonderful man that you have taken and used him for your purposes.

  • This testimony is so moving. I cried the whole time. He is so honest. Makes me feel aware one more time that we owe all to Jesus. No man is saved by himself.

  • There is something about Donnie Sumner that has always touched me. I love the pure sound of his voice. I see in him the hurt and all the pain in this world that sin can cause to a person. He ha such a testimony to those that are suffering and hurting. I love this man. Thank God that he got past all of the pain and now he has a life.

  • i felt very touched by this. i cried throught the entire time. thank you for posting this!

  • If you don't mind, I'd like to dedicate this song to Elvis Presley.

    God bless you.

  • This man has a powerful ministry.

    He would have died if God had not intervened that day.

    Donnie, you blessed my soul with that testimony.

  • "Honor your Father and Mother, that your days would be long upon the Earth."

  • "If any man come to me, and hate not his father, and mother...he cannot be my disciple." (Luke 14:26)

  • "Honor your Father and your Mother, that your days would be long upon the Earth."

  • -claps- takes a strong man to overcome all that.

  • That was absolutely fantastic. I'm a guy and don't cry much, but that testimony had me balling. It's just a fantastic story of God's unfailing love and that the prayers of a righteous person really can change things. Thank you for posting this!!! :)  Blessings.
