4 Reasons You’ll Love I Can Only Imagine 2

Bart is a middle-aged man who has everything he once wanted—a beautiful wife, a teenage son on the cusp of manhood, and a career in Christian music he long pursued. Yet beneath the success, Bart is quietly unraveling. The career that once brought him fulfillment now brings only pressure, driven by an industry that doesn’t dwell on past success and is always asking, “What’s next?” Truth be told, it’s been a while since Bart and his band—MercyMe—have recorded a major hit. Bart’s struggles at home run even deeper. When his wife talks, he’s easily distracted. When his teenage son speaks, he doesn’t relate. Bart and his son, Sam, rarely see eye to eye—partly because of Sam’s immaturity and the daily challenges of managing his diabetes—but also because of the baggage Bart carries from his own past. Bart didn’t grow up in a healthy home. His father was abusive, and just as their relationship began to turn a corner, his father passed.“No one taught me how to be a dad,” Bart tells his wife, Shannon. “Mine died when he was getting good at it.” Perhaps a new perspective on life can benefit Bart. That opportunity arrives when a rising star in CCM, Tim Timmons, joins the band on tour. He’s Bart’s opposite—outgoing, joyful, and relentlessly optimistic. In many ways, he’s who Bart used to be. Tim has the insight Bart needs. But will he listen?The new faith-based film I Can Only Imagine 2 (PG) follows the true-life story of Bart Millard, Tim Timmons, and their families. It’s one of the best family movies of the year.Here are four reasons you’ll probably love it:Photo credit: ©GettyImages/Terry Wyatt / Stringer
