As we begin the movie, we meet a boy named
Bart. He is a cheerful and lively boy who loves listening to music. On that one
day when he returned home after a fun time playing outside his house, he saw his
father burning some of his football equipment. Despite seeing the mess in the house, Bart did
not dare to ask about what had happened? His mother then asked him what he was carrying, and
Bart replied that the thing he was holding was a space combat helmet that he had made himself
from old
cardboard boxes. His mother appreciated Bart's imagination about things related to outer
space, but this was not the case with his father. Bart's father is a violent man, he often beats
Bart and always forbids him to do the things he likes, and to have dreams. According to his
father, there is nothing good about dreams, dreams only make a person avoid reality. Therefore,
when his father asked what he was holding, Bart said it was just trash and then his father took
it away and burned it alo
ng with other things. Later that night, Bart hears his parents having
a big fight. Bart then puts on headphones and listens to music, pretending to sleep because he
doesn't want to hear their quarrel. The next day, his mother asks Bart to join the church's
Camp. His mom wants Bart to enjoy the time by having fun, making new friends and creating
memories. Once at the camp, Bart meets a girl named Shannon. During the camp, he makes good
friends with Kent and Shannon. During the program, each
child gets a journal that they have
to fill in with whatever they think, just like a diary. But for Shannon,
the journal is not just a journal, but rather a piece that can make her mind more
organized, she can write about everything in it, such as her prayers, her problems, her
dreams and also things in her imagination. Bart is curious to see what's in Shannon's
journal, but Shannon shuts him out. Bart finally happened to see the contents of
Shannon's journal when Shannon accidentally drop
ped it when she collided with Kent.
Inside her journal, it is written that Shannon likes Bart. Bart quickly closes the
journal and then gives it back to Shannon. Before he goes to bed, Bart draws his thoughts
in his journal, a little boy with a monster. Out of the blue, Kent, who sleeps on the top bunk,
appears and startles Bart. Kent praises Bart's drawing skills, then he invites Bart to sneak out.
As it turns out, it wasn't just the two of them who were sneaking out, but also Shannon, who
had
been waiting for them all along. Kent then orders Bart and Shannon to sit on a bridge, facing
the north, while he leaves somewhere. At that moment, Shannon mustered the
courage to ask Bart whether he saw what was written in her journal, Bart then
lied and said that he didn't see anything. Shannon doesn't believe him, she then says that
she wrote about her feelings for Bart, because she hoped that one day the two of them would fall
in love and get married. After telling him that, Shann
on is embarrassed and runs to go after Kent,
but Bart holds her down so that she can't go, not because he's afraid, it's just
that Bart doesn't like being alone. A moment later, fireworks pop up, lighting up the
night sky. It was Kent who prepared the fireworks. The next day before going to their respective
homes, Shannon gives Bart a cassette tape that contains her favorite song called Never Alone,
sung by a singer named Amy Grant. Shannon tells Bart that one day she wants to be a singer
like Amy Grant. In his journal, Bart writes that it was one of the best weeks of his life.
Arriving home, Bart sees a movers carrying things from his house, he rushes into the house
looking for his mother, but his father says that his mother has run away. Bart then asks his
dad, when will his mom come back and his dad says for the second time, that his mom ran away
and won't come back. Knowing that his mother is often hurt by his father, Bart then asks
what his father has done to make her le
ave. Bart's question ignited his father's anger
to the point that Bart had to receive abuse from his father. Bart then runs out after the
movers, he screams for his mother's forgiveness and he asks what he has done so that he
has to be left behind with his father. Since then, his mother still occasionally
calls him to find out how Bart is doing. When Bart was in junior high school, he
lived with his mother, but his mother's fate turned out to be no better after being
married to her new hus
band, and one day, his father threatened to kill his mother's
husband, if he still dared to hurt her. After that incident, Bart was forced to return
home by his father. Throughout his life with his father, Bart tried to master the one thing that
his father cared about the most: football. Growing up, Bart became part of the school's football team
and had a good romantic relationship with Shannon, and continued to be friends with Kent. Despite
all of this, his father is still abusive. One day
, at his home, Bart shared his football
training with his father, and his father told him that, in the past, no one could knock him down
in a match. His principle was, if life hit him, he would hit back harder. His father also wanted Bart
to have the same mindset as him, therefore, during a match, Bart forced himself to stand his ground
to avoid falling when others from the opposing team attacked him. As a consequence, he broke his
leg and had to stop playing football for good. After being
discharged from the hospital, Shannon
and Kent help Bart enroll in other classes that he can take apart from football, and the only
class that is still available is the Glee club, and inevitably, Bart must enter the club. Glee
Club is a singing club that often features choirs and musicals. Since he was young, Bart
had been listening to music, but he had never actually sung. Therefore, the Glee Club coach
made him the assistant technical director. While Bart was in the performance hall, he f
ound a cassette player. He then tuned in
and listened to the song using headphones. Unknowingly, Bart sang the song along, his
unique voice booming throughout the hall. The club director was quite surprised to find
out that it was Bart's voice. The next day, all the students in the school congratulate Bart.
Seeing a confused Bart, Shannon takes him to the bulletin board. His name is written there as the
lead in the fall musical drama that will be held at his school. Bart then goes to see th
e club
director to say that he can't be the lead, not only because he never auditioned, but also because
his leg hasn't fully healed yet. The club director then convinces Bart that he can definitely do
it, after all, the show is still 2 months away, that's enough time for him to recover. Bart
keeps trying to refuse, he says he is Bart, a football player, he can't sing. The club director
then tells him that Bart has talent, if Bart does not want to join this musical drama, then he
will cert
ainly not be able to pass her class. And so the story goes, we arrive at the day
of the musical. At first, Bart feels awkward singing on stage in front of a large audience,
but over time he enjoys it more and more. He sang while acting out his role. No one expected
Bart to have such amazing singing talent. At the same time, Bart's father saw a flier for an opera
performance that included Bart's name on it. All of sudden, he experienced severe abdominal
pain that caused him to be rushed to t
he hospital. Upon examination, the doctor
suspected Bart's father had cancer, but further tests were needed to confirm it,
however, he refused to undergo any tests. After the play is over, Bart, accompanied
by Shannon, goes to the hospital to see his father. His father won't tell Bart what the doctor
actually said about his illness. He only said that his blood sugar was low. At that moment, for
the first time, Shannon is introduced as his girlfriend to his father. Bart wants to take his
fa
ther home, because he is worried about him, but his father says that he is fine on his
own. Before leaving, his father makes a small mention of the play, telling Shannon
that he never knew that Bart could sing. Shannon then tells him that Bart has very good
singing skills. Bart then apologizes to his father because he didn't invite him, he thought he might
not want to come to see him on stage. Not wanting to carry on talking about it, Bart's father said
they would discuss it later when they
got home. Bart is angry and disappointed, because whatever
he has done since he was a child has never been appreciated by his father. Once his father left,
Bart then went to attend his clubmates' party, without even bothering that he needed to see a
doctor to find out his father's medical condition. One Sunday morning, Bart is all set in his suit,
because today he is going to sing in church. His father tells Bart to have breakfast before
he leaves. As Bart begins to enjoy his meal, his fat
her smiles as he looks at the front page
of the newspaper, reporting on Bart's performance in the play. His father then makes a joke about
the clothes Bart wore in the performance. Bart, who never felt appreciated, instantly gets
angry when he hears he is only considered a joke. He then asks his father, what's
so funny? If he really wanted to sing, it was because he felt he really had the ability
to sing. His father then states that Bart needs to find something that he is really good at, so
that
he can earn a living properly. Bart then asks, how does he know what he can do, if he himself
has never heard him sing? And again, his father can't be outdone and replies to Bart's words by
saying that all he has heard from him so far, is whining and crying. Bart gets so annoyed
at his father, he then tells him the radio frequency where he can hear him sing in church.
Their fight that morning continued until Bart's father could no longer hold back his anger, he
smashed the plate fille
d with food on Bart's head. Bart then attempts to stop his father's
madness because he is fed up with his behavior. With his head still bleeding, Bart walks
into the church and Shannon is very worried when she sees how he's doing. But Bart is
a very secretive person, especially about any problems he is facing. He tells Shannon that
he's fine. Shannon desperately wants to help him, but she doesn't know where to start because she
sees that both Bart and his father wear masks to cover up their
personal lives. At school,
Shannon says that she has always loved Bart and begs him not to leave her. In an emotional
state, Bart says that he never really loved her, when he graduates, he will leave her. Bart's
words certainly hurt Shannon and indeed, after graduating from school, Bart decided
to leave his house and also Shannon. Six months have passed, and Bart is now living
in Oklahoma. While he was working, he heard about a band, who were preparing to perform that day,
needing a vocal
ist. Bart then offers himself to be the vocalist in the band. From then on, Bart
joined the band called MercyMe. Using a minibus, MercyMe toured around, taking as many jobs as
they could. At one of the venues where they were scheduled to perform, Brickell, the manager
of Audio Adrenaline, was there to watch MercyMe perform, after Bart sent him some letters about
the band. After the performance, Bart approaches Brickell. Brickell's first impression of Bart
was that he was a man who talked to
o much. Regarding MercyMe's performance, Brickell felt it
was not enough to convince him to become MercyMe's manager. He said Bart does have talent and
potential, but he has yet to find his own song. Brickell praised Bart's last performance when he
performed a gospel song, he saw that Bart had soul in it. Unfortunately, that kind of song is not the
type of song MercyMe usually performs. Brickell hopes Bart can write a song, like the one he
performed in his last performance. Not wanting to w
aste the opportunity, Bart then invites Brickell
to come with him to Texas, for the next show, in their minibus. As odd as it may seem, Brickell
accepted the offer. Before leaving for Texas, Bart, with the support of his friends, invited
Shannon to join his band on tour. They then went to Shannon's house, but Shannon declined his
invitation. Apparently, that's not what Shannon expected from Bart's arrival. Shannon tells Bart
that she wishes him the best every day. Since Bart left her, she a
lways hopes that Bart can find
whatever he's looking for in the world out there. Bart and his band then start traveling to Texas
and every time they make a stop for a break, Bart and his friends prepare a new song to
attract Brickell's attention. Their efforts finally paid off, Brickell was finally willing
to give MercyMe a chance to do a bigger show and Brickell said that he would invite some people
from the record label to watch them perform. While his relations with Shannon were not
goo
d, Bart still often contacted her and left messages for her. On the day of the
long-awaited show, before going on stage, Brickell introduced Bart to some of the
famous legendary singers of the time. Well, as the story goes, after the show,
the MercyMe personnel gather around, waiting for the outcome of the discussion between
Brickell, as their representative, and the people of the record label. Unfortunately, Bart is not
one to wait patiently, so he goes to Brickell, who is in the middle of
a discussion with the
record label people. Bart says he wants to hear directly from the label's people about their
performance. Hoping that the results would be good, but in fact MercyMe was considered still
not good enough to be able to sell records. Bart seemed unable to accept the decision, he
then told them all that MercyMe had successfully performed seven well-attended shows, and had been
selling their own albums for years. One of the label people then asked Bart to accept the reality
of his band's inability to get signed to a record label. When Bart heard those words, the image of
his father who always asked him to grasp reality instead of chasing stupid dreams, appeared in his
head. Bart was angry, he thought people didn't understand, and didn't appreciate the hard work
he and his friends had put in. The person from the label then explains to Bart that they have
worked with many bands, they can recognize which band will succeed and which one will fail. Bart
again sho
ws his disagreement with the other guy's opinion, according to him, how can people say
they won't succeed, when they don't know them. Shortly afterwards, Bart goes back to his friends
who are waiting for him and at that very moment, Bart decides to quit MercyMe. Brickell walks
up to Bart who is alone, he asks, is Bart sure he's going to quit after all the effort he's put
in? Bart then answers that he is tired and has nothing left. Brickell then describes how Bart
looks on stage. According t
o him, sometimes Bart seemed like he was singing someone else's music,
even though it was his own song. But there was one moment where he saw something authentic from
Bart, but when it appeared, Bart looked scared and it then just disappeared. Brickell then asks what
Bart is trying to hide? what he's running from? and Bart tells him that he's running
from his father. Brickell sees the pain, fear and hatred that Bart feels, he then tells
Bart to let the pain emerge and inspire him to write a
song. That way, Bart will have a song that
can touch the hearts of people who hear the song. Brickell later on says, he may not always believe
in the music Bart sings, but he believes in Bart. At that point, Bart makes his way back to his
friends, he apologizes and says he wants to get back together with MercyMe, but before that, he
has to go back to his home to settle some matters, and fortunately, his friends accept
him and are willing to wait for him. When he returned home, Bart was sur
prised to see
that his father's demeanor had changed from what he used to be. He looks better than ever, his
appearance is neater and he has become more thoughtful and religious. His father tells
him that he has listened to some preachers on the radio and read the Bible, and although
there are many things he doesn't understand, God has answered his prayers for him
to see Bart again. Not only that, his father was also trying to fix his jeep, hoping
to drive it with Bart someday. Up to that
point, Bart is still confused by his father's drastic
change. Actually, during the time Bart left home, his father always sent him letters, but Bart
always threw them away, without even reading them. Apparently, the big change that happened to his
father was based on his father's desire to have memories and improve his relationship with Bart.
However, Bart still finds it difficult to accept these changes, considering that his father has
given him bad memories for most of his life. Bart late
r says that his father's change into a good
person and acting as if nothing ever happened, won't work to improve their situation. His father
then asks Bart, what he should do? He wants to try it. Bart then tells him that God can forgive you,
but he can't. As his father used to tell him to stop dreaming, Bart asks him to stop dreaming
about having a good relationship with him. Bart then walks out of his house and is getting
ready to leave his father, but just as he is about to leave, he acci
dentally discovers his father's
diagnosis that he has terminal pancreatic cancer. Bart returns home and sees his father destroying
the Jeep that his father has been trying to fix. Seeing his father suffering, Bart is finally
moved to give his father a second chance. Bart flips back to the journal of the camp he
attended when he was young. He remembers the words of a pastor who at that time told all camp
participants to write a line that reads, "Lord, tonight I choose to forgive". Back then,
Bart
didn't know who he should forgive, but this time, he confidently wrote that his father was the
person he wanted to forgive. At that moment, the Pastor said, it is difficult to forgive people
who have given us many deep wounds in our lives, but if we have been forgiven by God, then God
will give us the strength to forgive others. From then on, their relationship improved. Every
day, they spend time sharing stories with each other. Bart's father regrets his absence at
every important m
oment, such as on the day of Bart's graduation. When his father found out
that Bart was no longer in contact with Shannon, he told Bart to get Shannon back, he believed that
Bart and Shannon were destined to be together. After spending a long time fixing his father's
Jeep, Bart finally managed to fix the car. The two of them then drove around in the Jeep. Time
passes and his father's condition begins to deteriorate. Upon arriving at the hospital,
his father tells Bart that since Bart left,
he loves to listen to Bart sing in church on
his radio, he listens to every word Bart says, and after the singing is finished, he will
continue to listen to the preachers. For him, Bart's singing has saved him and helped him
to change. His father then explained why he had always told Bart not to have dreams.
So far, his dreams had never come true, but he realized that Bart was not like him.
Bart had real talent and he was proud of what Bart was doing. Bart's father then gave Bart
his savin
gs and life insurance. He wanted Bart to use the money to pursue his career.
After some time, Bart's father passed away. Bart resumes his adventure with MercyMe and
brings along all the journals he had back when he was a kid. One thing he discovered
was that he had written the word "Imagine" and the phrase "I can only imagine" on most
of his journal pages. That's when Bart got the inspiration to make a song with the title "I
Can Only Imagine", a song he made for his father. Bart later sends
the song to Brickell and the song
manages to make Brickell can't stop listening to it. After much consideration, the song was planned
to be sung by Amy Grant. Bart wants his song to be heard by many people. Prior to singing his song,
Bart told Amy Grant about his life, he told her that since he was young he always thought of his
father as a monster, but he clearly saw that God was able to turn the person he hated the most into
the person he wanted to be his best friend ever. Afterward, Bar
t told Shannon about his new song
through a voicemail. He also apologized to her for hurting her. Upon hearing Bart apologize,
Shannon immediately picked up the phone, but unfortunately, Bart had hung up. The song "I
Can Only Imagine" will be performed for the first time at Amy Grant's comeback showcase. Bart
left a message for Amy Grant to tell everyone that he made the song for his father. Out of the
blue, after introducing Bart as the songwriter, Amy Grant instead asked Bart to sing the
song
himself. Bart managed to touch the hearts of everyone who heard his song. At the end of the
song, Bart earns an enthusiastic ovation from the audiences, and he saw the glimpse of
his father there, smiling at him proudly. By that time, the tapes of the song that
were already in the shipping process had to be withdrawn, as the song would eventually
become MercyMe's first single. As soon as it was played to the public, the song managed to
become the most heard song on various music platf
orms and was requested on almost all radio
broadcast shows. After singing the song, Bart saw Shannon among the hundreds of audience members
who came, he then immediately ran over to her. At the end of the movie, the epilogue tells us
that Bart proposed to Shannon at Camp Glorietta, and they were married on November, 8 1997. The
week Bart received his last check from his father, I Can Only Imagine became the number one Christian
song in America. It is now the best-selling, most-played Christ
ian single of all time. Scott
Brickell manages MercyMe to this day. He named his home property as Imagine Acres. Bart and his
mom have grown closer over the years. Today, she is her son's biggest fan. MercyMe has gone
on to record 21 number 1 hit songs and counting. On February 2nd, 2017, Bart had a chance
to share his story with the President, Vice President, members of the House
and Congress, and world leaders.
Comments
hi pin me
I like how Bart goes from a pre-teen kid to a pushing-30 high schooler.
It is understandable that Bart wanted to leave that town, but he had no reason to be cruel to his girlfriend who had loved him since childhood.
There is no point in forgiveness with jerks, just put it behind you and get on with making your life a good one.
We played this song at my grandfathers funeral. It’s an amazing song.
i grew up in this kind of house, my stepdad was a bully, me & my brother ran away from home twice, & we got beat for that, my mom was no better, they were alcoholics, it was the alcohol doing alot of talking..we all made peace before they died, if you leave a mark on your child, thats abuse!
I love this song so much. Imagine the joy I felt when I realised the movie was the story of how the song was made.
after a long time, this is the movie that made me emotional.
I guess they couldn't find a 40 year old to play a high school kid, so had to settle on 30.
We all need a friend like kent
No loving parents would name their child "Bart".
"Forgive? No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no! You were an adult, willfully tormenting your wife and child. God may forgive you, because... he's a better father than you. But Mom and I owe you less than shit. Just because you're dying now doesn't mean we owe you forgiveness. At MOST we could afford you our pity on your judgement day."
This has me all kinds of emotional 😢
Pronounced Mercy Me, in 2 separate words .. Mercy..Me! Well done with the true story recap other than that!
Wow.. I love this video.. thank u for sharing this...I didn't know that was behind this wonderful song...
I was working at First Baptist Of Windermere Florida when I first heard this 🎵 I will never forget 🙏 ⛪️
This is a phenomenal story really great 👍
This is one of my favorite movies
You cannot stand against every attack, you have to know when to dodge and when to run.
I find it hard to believe he was a running back😂
