O! Brother, where art thou? In this episode of Faith Cafe, the award-winning group The Isaacs discusses life on the road, Ben Isaacs has a Marsha, Marsha, Marsha moment explaining his life on the road with his two sisters Sonya and Rebecca and his mother Lily. There's plenty of bluegrass music and a heart-stirring story about Lily's family immigrating to the US after being in a concentration camp during WWII.
