This is how a church should be. Loving, forgiving, accepting. Michael made mistakes, but we all have. I'm glad that he has been accepted and loved by everyone. He is without a doubt a Prodigal Son. Loved by all.
I can honestly say that this is so moving.. I see Glen start to stand up.. He would of held Micheal and cried and prayed.. I love to see the older members of the group.. with tears streaming down thier faces.. THEY KNOW.. They have lived a long time and have seen that grace, mercy and love of our LORD.. and they know that mistakes are made and lives crumble but JESUS heals shattered hearts..I am in need of that now in my life..WOW! what a TESTIMONY of How great our SAVIOR is!
If you have ever heard this man, he is an amazing singer..not to mention his past plays a huge part in making him what he is today..I thank God he is a God of many chances don't you? otherwise we'd all be in hell and never know the mercy of God.
Michael through your trials your olives was just being crush to produce the oil that following on your head. It was your process, God was molding you the entire time. All things work together for the good, what was bad, God turned it into your good! Continued blessings.... Rosie
This is Church, yes, it is! Praise God! To God be all the glory! Now, I know that I want a chance to sing with these folks! It's been a dream of mine for more than 35 years, so how does a singer audition to sing with the Gaithers? My heart is with these folks, with Bill and Gloria, and with the Good News they bring to a hungry world!
Awww, I love these people.. Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge of the Son of God, Ephesians...4:13..That preacher was right..this is what it's all about!
If watching this doesn't make you cry, I don't know what will. I just heard it for the first time tonight on a Giather Vocal Band CD, and started looking on you tube for it and found this. I got such a blessing out of watching this.
Can you please tell me who the man to the left of Michael is? Between Michael and Tanya Goodman Sykes. I see him on Homecoming DVDs but don't know who he is. Thank you for posting these wonderful songs.
It is so moving to me to see people of all ages.. WITH FORGIVENESS in thier eyes and acceptance...I cry when I see SANDI PATTI... SHE KNOWS SHE HAS BEEN THERE TOO...
I tear up every time when Michael walks over to Vestal and hug her with tears running down his face! Thank you Lord for your wonderful life-changning miracles!
The devil has used many tactics trying to defeat Michael. Such a talented man, so humble to show his broken hearted state to everyone. So willing to let any and everyone who would Lift him up to God, for him to find the PEACE THAT PASSETH ALL UNDERSTANDING. By God's grace, WE WILL NEVER LOSE IT!!
Ok hoover....now I'm crying...wow, just WOW. I really don't have any words right now except to say that..God is good. God is good. GOD is good. Praise God. *tears*
that moment at the end with vestal is a moment i will forever cherish because that is the beauty of the queen of gospel music. that was like saying welcome back michael, we love you.
I agree but also she looked at Michael like a son where he sang with the Happy Goodmans for a while. I have a feeling they were praying together. No matter how many times I watch this video, it always stirs in me. You can tell the holy spirit was in that place that night for sure!
Amen!!!Amen!!! I always can fell God's presence when I watch this video. I too dealt with the some of the same issues as Michael. I am so thankful for second chances. I give God all the glory.
Vestal was his praying mother like my mom was never stopped praying for us we love Michael and when our praying mothers leave us we have to be strong for our children and keep praying for them
This has to be one of the most touching videos for Gods glory!! Thank God for all who kept praying for Michael English during his difficult time. This shows how thanful Michael is to God for people praying for him. Thanks to God for a man not afriad to show His love for you with tears and his singing.
What DVD is this on? I have several & can't remember if I have this one. I love to hear Michael this song - the emotion in his voice & face made me cry! So glad he's back!!!
Thank God Bill Gaither has Got Michael back! Bill is a great man of grace and a great example of how all Christians should be. God knows our hearts and we need to forgive before we can be forgiven...AMEN!
I can't wait to hear the New GVB with Michael, David Phelps, Wes Hampton, Mark Lowery and Bill Gaither...GVB Super Quintet! WOW!!!
I love you brother and I am proud of where God wants you to be... :)
I came acrosa this video on tv several years ago before tvo. Thia song and the message is timeless. May God continue to work in Michael's life. He has certainly blessed mine with his continued faithful witnesa.
The first time I saw this I cried. I didn't know who Michael English was and had never heard this song before, but the emotion in his voice touched me.
hoover- I am trying to order the DVD from gaither with this song on it- Good News- but is this not also the video where Michael sings House of Gold and Until I found the Lord- these 2 songs aren't on the song list- but they're wearing the same clothes haha I'd appreciate the help! :)
I think Michael reflects how we all feel and ask fervently for the FATHER to feed his children in all ways as only He can. Bless this voice for showing the anguish of all us sinners when we are only made perfect to glorify our God.
Wow! from the intro to the end, this song will have you in tears. You no doubt can feel the longing, repentance, passion, and anguish in Michael's voice. What an awesome singer; what an awesome move of God during this song. This song bro't hope to me!
I never liked Michael English, but after learning what he went through and how incredibly brave he was to face the demons, I am sorry for ever feeling negative towards Michael. I'm so touched by seeing his acceptance back into the fold.
I think Michael was so brave to sing a solo again, it really broke the ice, and I think the decision to bring him back was the best one. This song moves me to tears everytime, no I know what he's come from
How touching, Thank you God for restoring Michael. I have been touched by such love from Christians, he is truly sorry- That's why we have God- we all mess up. Best video of love from fellow christians
Michael's voice moves me, it is always so rich and full of genuine love for the Lord. I'm a long time admirer of his beautiful voice. I hadn't seen this one in a long time but I do love these Gaither videos. Seeing Vestal made me miss her even more. Thank you for posting this.
Thanks for the info and thanks for sharing about the poem; it was beautiful. Mr. Jones reminds me so much of my grandfather. Also thanks for all the videos you post, they are a blessing.
I could feel the love of all these people, The Angels must have been crying with joy too, as they seen the love that was happening in this meeting..Gods love is so powerful, you can feel it over the internet. God Bless you for sharing this with the world.
After reading Michael's book and watching this video, my heart is full to overflowing with thanksgiving of God's love and redemption. If we are hungry God will fill us and when we are willing, He will pour out love and mercy to us. Thank God for his blessing and thank you Michael for ministering to my spirit.
This is such a moving song. I watched it for the first time yesterday, and now I watch it all the time. It sounds like I need to get his book and read it.
After reading Michael English's book and then watching this video, I just sat and wept, because I now know the events that followed. It is only by God's Marvelous grace we all haven't found ourselves in the place Michael 'was'. I was inspired by his book, and highly, highly recommend reading it! I finished it in only a few days, it is so good you can't put it down. God Bless!
I know Michael English. He is a native of Wallace, North Carolina, just minutes from my home. I haven't yet read his book, but it is to be the next book that I buy. He is an amazing singer. I also know his brother Biney English, father Albine and neice Jessica English Whitley. AMAZING.
This is a very touching song. My aunt Robin sangs this song and it is a blessing just like her. She is special to me. Thanks for this song and just if we are all willing he will feed us. Great song.
I think he had a problem with drugs and he went to rehab and this is when he came back. It just shows how awesome God can work. Michael is an awesome singer!
I knew mike when he was a kid and I an sure he don't remeber me but he got his voice from his father Albine English, i hope and pray Mike can continue his testimony thru his music and focus on the path God has laid for him he surely grown into an amazing talent.
I have this video but wanted to watch this part today without having to get out the videotape. I knew when I first saw the video why everyone was so emotional and he and Vestal was hugging him so, but having just finished reading Michael's autobiography that just came out makes it all the more poignant. He had been almost to the brinks of hell and God in all his love and mercy brought him back to serve Him. What a testimony!
I believe this song was recorded after his first attempt at sobriety before he relapsed the second time. I also just read his book. AMAZING! Everyone should read even if they are not a fan. God's Redemption is REAL!
This is one of my favorite songs and sung by one of my favorite singers. I've always been emotionally and spiritually touched by this song, but even more so today with this video. Thank you for posting it.
This is how a church should be. Loving, forgiving, accepting. Michael made mistakes, but we all have. I'm glad that he has been accepted and loved by everyone. He is without a doubt a Prodigal Son. Loved by all.
