This on-stage conversation offers an inspiring behind-the-scenes look at I Can Only Imagine 2, as director Andy Erwin and artist Tim Timmons share how the sequel goes beyond the original film’s “happily ever after” to explore deeper themes of grief, gratitude, and hope. Andy explains how Bart Millard’s real-life journey—wrestling with his son’s health challenges and the tension between sorrow and faith—sparked a story that feels both raw and redemptive, while Tim reflects on his own 24-year battle with incurable cancer and the contagious posture of gratitude that shaped the film’s heart. With humor, authenticity, and stories from production—including Milo Ventimiglia portraying Tim—the session highlights how the movie invites audiences to hold pain and God’s goodness together, offering the Church a powerful tool for sparking meaningful conversations about faith, suffering, and the hope found in Jesus.
