I had a chance to meet MWS, actually at his farm, “barn.” I put it in quotes, as his, “barn” was located, literally adjoining the Cumberland Chase, and nicer than any house I had ever lived in! 🤣 He actually came up to me and introduced himself. I informed him, Michael, I know know who you are! I have been a fan of your’s since you were jumping through large straws wearing argyle!!! The MWS Project for those of you even older than me! A mutual friend, Joey, introduced us! He was awesome!!! Friendly, down to earth, real, and personable!! Another great friend of mine, Jim Daneker worked for him as a keyboardist, and always spoke of his character, friendship and gratitude! I am definitely a fan of MWS!!!
Michael, you are such a true man of God!! I saw you in 2003 in Fort Wayne, IN. Mercyme opened for you! Thank you for answering God's call in your life!!
I got to meet Michael yesterday in OKC at his 35 years of Friends concert. He is so kind! I am 30 my mom had me listening to Michael since I was 3 now my 4 year old son sings along with Michael's music. The lord is working through his music generation after generation! ❤🙏
Place in This World will forever mean a lot to me. I was physically and verbally abused as a child and hearing the song gave me hope. My daughter with Autism loves the Lullaby album. God bless you, your family, and ministry. Thank you for answering the call of God on your life.
Micheal, My husband and I have listened to you and Amy Grant since the beginning. We are around the same age as you so it was like going through the valleys and mountains together in our spiritual walk. I feel very blessed by people like you who are willing to share a big part of your life for God to bless others. Thank you!
Yes! That is such an emotional song; Friends. I accompanied a group of friends singing that song in church the last Sunday before one of them was moving away; big cry-fest
Whoa, I'm blown away! Wouldn't haven't dreamed that Mark and Michael go sooo many thousand of years back ‐ together. Awesome. This was so precious to watch. Thanks, guys! This gran will go to bed a happy gal tonight. Love from South Africa
I was in high school ('81 or'82) when my life long friend/sister introduced me to "Friends" & I've been a fan ever since 💕 I actually was blessed with meet N greet tickets with MWS & Amy Grant 💕 May God continue to bless you & your music 🙏🙏
Mark and Andrew I just want to say that what you do here means so much to me. I also appreciate all your guests. It’s so nice to have a place at the table with you all. It’s refreshing and fun. The openness that y’all share is very meaningful to me. On the death thing and grieving. For me of course I grieve the loss of my loved one but also death was never part of God’s plan for us so that another reason why I think we feel it so deeply.
New subbie here! 🥰 Love this video. I grew up on Michael W Smith. I became a Christian when I was 18 and he was the first Christian artist I listened to. And I had all his worship CD. Now I’m 37 and have a daughter. I introduced her to MWS and took her and hubby to the concert at Overlake Church in Seattle.
Dear Uncle Mark, I grew up watching Mouth In Motion and Remotely Controlled. To this day, I know the lyrics to Face In This World better than I know the original! Love and laughter, Linden Lea (Renas) Peters ❤
Mark you came to our church when you were just finishing collage and several time after. Michael your music has been a life raft many times. I Love music and both of yours had a hand in helping me learn that The Father love is not the same as my earthly fathers. Christian music helped me feel the word not just hear and feel the true depth of Gods love.
WOW! i grew up in his music too. thank you MWS! i remember in our high school...Bethania High School, a Christian Boarding School for girls only, we listen to his music in the dorms. Place in this world really impacted and helped my life during my teens. thank you
I just think you guys are great! Natural interviewers. You make your guests so comfortable. The concept of a dinner conversation is perfect, but I worry that the food isn't being eaten and that it might be insulting to the cooks. But then I know how it is to "eat on camera." Do you have spit buckets next to your chair or just move the food around on your plate? LOL
It only takes one to make the decision to follow Christ that can change the path of a family that is headed in the wrong direction. My grandfather did this and it’s had a huge impact on generations down the line.
I love this show! I love you Mark & Andrew! I love you Michael W Smith, I'm a Grammy & the same age as you. I've listened to you since the early 80's, you are such a blessing!✝
2nd Chapter of Acts, Phil Keaggy, Larry Norman...Jesus People musicians. Mark, when you said Bread, I could not stop laughing. 70's great band that took the best Christan band name ever! Really enjoy your show.
Michael W Smith is an original. Now so much of the evangelical and Christian music try to copy him, and its just not the same. I saw him in San Diego, and he was STILL AWESOME.
I was reading a Bible verse that say’s God corrects those he loves. He loves us but wants us to live holy onto him. Only the Holy Spirit draws the lost sinner we need to live holy even though we all fall short.
First saw Smitty as he was the keyboard and piano player in Amy Grant's band. Amy would give him a half hour or so to play his own music, which was talking off.
Is it just me or did anyone else wonder when one of Ginny’s children married one of Michael’s children and Michael and Ginny were going to talk about grand-parenting together?! LOL
I've taken care of a lot of dementia and Alzheimer's patients in my time. What I have learned is that their brains slowly forget how to function in the body as well as the mind. When they forget how to breathe, they go to sleep that perpetual sleep--tucked in by our Heavenly Father and He will wake everybody up with a trumpet. Can you imagine? If you think about it, it's funny for Daddy to walk in and blow a trumpet to wake you up. Abba has a great sense of humor.
I do not at this point have any idea how it will be possible for me to leave any type of legacy that I would want to associated with. Fixing the wound from negative parenting sometimes never hets done..and when it does,its the way Michaels mom did it..on her own accord. Mine never did-- don't know if it ever will.
I am so sorry for what you have been through. My Father wasn't the greatest. I learned God's love by having a relationship with him. It took that, therapy, and choosing to forgive and love my Father for me to move forward. Don't give up hope. God is a healer and can help you through it. ❤
What are you doing for Pastors and believers in Bangladesh and Pakistan? Help those who are your brothers first before others as they would make an impact and preach the gospel
He did. "I believe a lot, but know nothing." There is much about our Lord we can only accept by faith, even when we don't understand. Try to explain the Trinity.
I think there should be a requirement on RUclips that if you give a thumbs up or down, you must defend that choice. Who gives this a thumbs down? For what reason? My two cents. Some very poignant thoughts in this episode.
There is no greater praise than the blessed truth of God's word to the glory of God. God the Son (Jesus Christ) has given us the gospel to share with the world. Mark 16:15: And He said unto them, Go into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. How can anyone hear the "good" news? Romans 10:17 Then faith comes from hearing and hearing the word of God. - Isaiah 7:14: "Therefore the LORD shall give you a sign; behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and call His name Immanuel." Hebrew: עִמָּנוּאֵל, "God with us" in human flesh but without sin. The Savior of the world was born to die for our sins! He did so 33 years later. His terrible ordeal; body mutilated; blood poured out, finally died and was placed in a tomb and rose from the dead the 3rd day ! "HE IS RISEN" Matthew 28:6 - John 3:16 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - "For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God." Romans 3:23 - " For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord." Romans 6:23 - " Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man comes to the Father, but by me.." John 14:6 - "1 Corinthians 15: 3 "For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; 4 And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:" - " In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace;" Ephesians 1:7 - " For this is my blood of the new testament, which is shed for many for the remission of sins." Matthew 26:28 - Ephesians 2:8 "By grace you have been saved through faith, and this is not from yourself: it is the gift of God." - Romans 10: 9 "That if you will confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus, and believe in thine heart that God has raised him from the dead, you will be saved. 10 For with the heart man believes unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. 13 For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved." - Salvation and forgiveness of sins is the blessing of anyone who believes in Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Those who reject the free gift of salvation "perish", which means their sins are judged by God the Son and they suffer eternal separation from God and the family of God forever called the "second death". Revelation 21:8. - "Therefore, being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ." Romans 5:1
I think it's a good idea in theory but doesn't work. You either talk or eat or talk with your mouth full so they just end up talking and the food is a prop.
Nice couple interviewing so called “Christian” artists. I would think the first step being a Christian should be obedience to God’s Words. A homosexual couple who claim they are Christians, which clearly violates Lev.18:22, among other verses, and artists who wouldn’t know Jesus if He sat next to them, reveal how clever Satan is because I’m certain 99% of people watching this missed what was so obvious. Two gay men interviewing “Christians”. Remedying sin begins with calling it out and rebuking it.
So what if they are? At least they have love in their hearts for others and have been injecting that love into the world via their artistry for decades. What do you have to contribute to the world other than spewing vile, evil, judgemental, bigotted homophobic rhetoric cowardly behind a veiled youtube profile? How are people being who they were born to be affecting anyone and/or anything other than triggering people like you who've been taking up space hating differences you don't understand? Get off your high horse or ride off into your delusional hetero-normative sunset for all I care, or continue wining. The LGBTQ+ community exists, always has, always will and there's nothing you can do about it. The choice is yours going forward. Be a better person or continue willfully choosing to be a bigot.

You need to put out a recipe book of the meals served to each guest on Dinner Conversations.
Good idea!

I cried and laughed with this one. You guys are the best!! 😀🤣🥰
This song was sung at a friend's graduation who has since died with cancer. Seeing this around graduation time brought back memories
I'm pretty sure the only time I saw Michael W Smith in concert was in Auckland NZ when he toured with Amy Grant in the early to mid 80's.
Mark you came to our church when you were just finishing collage and several time after. Michael your music has been a life raft many times.

Ginny Owens’ voice is a pure Joy.
An exceptional man..
The legacy of a great Father...
What a special rendition of Friends. If you've never heard Ginny on the "A Night in Rocketown" album do yourself a favour.
Great visit. We grieve for ourselves. Such a wonderful conversation about aging and death. We get older, life moves on.
Love the flowers on the table.
Awesome Mark Lowry!!
Oh my stars!! 14 grandkids. That's amazing.😊
Shalom! MICHAEL W. SMITH ! MAN BLESSED, VERY COOL, SONGS VERY COOL, MAN CRISTÃO ,SERENO , TRANQUILO ,GENTIL E ELEGANTE NA POSTURA E NO FALAR.
Love the show!! And loved the bloopers! Literally laughed out loud!
I just think you guys are great! Natural interviewers. You make your guests so comfortable. The concept of a dinner conversation is perfect, but I worry that the food isn't being eaten and that it might be insulting to the cooks. But then I know how it is to "eat on camera."

Catching up on Dinner conversations during this crazy time!
What a talent.
It only takes one to make the decision to follow Christ that can change the path of a family that is headed in the wrong direction. My grandfather did this and it’s had a huge impact on generations down the line.
Loved this interview, Michael playing the piano and Ginny singing earlier and then finding out about the kids songs and books.
Michael always wonderful with your work to God.. Ginn is a beautiful person to God too. she sings very well.
Agnus Dia was the last song i learned to sign. Friends was played at my dad service
I was introduced to all the Jesus music in 1976 and immediately fell in love with it and the Jesus they were singing about.
I love this show! I love you Mark & Andrew! I love you Michael W Smith, I'm a Grammy & the same age as you. I've listened to you since the early 80's, you are such a blessing!✝
Merry Christmas 🎄🎁
So Powerful!!!
very good episode I love going to sleep at night and Mark your a great Man I love ya buddy

Oh em gee. Love Song and Honeytree were my favorites. ❤️
Binge watching MWS interviews, and came across the parody, "Face on This World" at 42:19. What a hoot! They shouldn't run him over though lol.
Why am I going to watch RUclips video that’s 3 years old lol 😂
Thank you
Glory
I would love to see an episode with TobyMac
Awesome
Who's house is this? The entro reminds me of the intro to Golden girls.
thank so much mark mws is nice
Is it just me or did anyone else wonder when one of Ginny’s children married one of Michael’s children and Michael and Ginny were going to talk about grand-parenting together?! LOL
remember the first Andre Crouch record i ever head
8:55 Is that the April Hefner who wrote a scathing editorial about Petra not deserving one of their Grammys?

Michael looks like Pat Boone.
I was thinking he looks more like Franklin Graham
What are you doing for Pastors and believers in Bangladesh and Pakistan? Help those who are your brothers first before others as they would make an impact and preach the gospel
'Christian Agnostic', please explain
He did. "I believe a lot, but know nothing." There is much about our Lord we can only accept by faith, even when we don't understand. Try to explain the Trinity.
@@carolj2013 the Trinity are 3 separate Gods who are equal and ONE in purpose. It's not a three headed monster.

Painful to watch. They are completely unaware of their ungodliness. They don't know God.
Why are they acting like gay men?
Why do they have to eat on these shows? So distracting. They only get a few bites in anyway. But who wants to watch people chewing their food?
I think it's a good idea in theory but doesn't work. You either talk or eat or talk with your mouth full so they just end up talking and the food is a prop.

@@T.Rex33 these commenting, obviously, do not know or follow Mark and Andrew. They are trolls making dumb comments.
