March 05, 2018

Dennis Quaid is in the movie "I Can Only Imagine" and he is playing the role of an abusive father. The movie is based on a true story and the testimony of the main character really impacted Dennis’s life.
“I Can Only Imagine” is one of the most well-known songs in the Christian community. It was written by Bart Millard, one of the band members of MercyMe. He has such a powerful testimony about how he came to Christ and healed from childhood traumas caused by his parents. His mother left him all alone with his father.

When Dennis Quaid first received the script, he had never heard the song before. But when he listened to it, he touched him in a very personal way. You have got to hear this interview!
