I Can Only Imagine is an amazing song, and I was so excited to hear that a movie had been made depicting the life of Bart Millard, lead singer of MercyMe and the band member who wrote the song. Then when I had the opportunity to read the book, seeing the movie had to wait! I just finished the book and really enjoyed it. It was not an easy read, because the things Bart had to go through as a child were horrible, but to hear how God played an amazing part in that story and how Bart knows it, is an inspiration.
The book also has some tidbits not found in the movie, which I really enjoyed learning about. If you have ever listened to I Can Only Imagine, and would love to learn what inspired the song, you will want to read this book!
I was given a copy of this book to review. All opinions are 100% mine.
