I CAN ONLY IMAGINE

It was Friday and time for a movie for the Movie Mavens and The Travelling Toe. Several friends had recommended the faith-based movie "I Can Only Imagine". We decided to see it and were very glad we did.
The movie is described on the internet as follows:
Based on the incredible true-life story that inspired the beloved, chart-topping song, I Can Only Imagine is a song that brings ultimate hope to so many - often in the midst of life's most challenging moments. Amazingly, the song was written in mere minutes by MercyMe lead singer Bart Millard. In reality, those lyrics took a lifetime to craft.
Bart's father was rather cruel and demanding. He told Bart he was a big disappointment. Trying to impress his father, Bart joined the high school football team (well, it is Texas after all and Friday night lights happen) but Bart suffered a debilitating injury. His football playing days were over and his father had no use for him. Bart found an outlet when he joined the glee club and discovered he had a voice. Bart finally has to leave home and his father in order to forge his own path. But as so often happens, the trail can circle you back home to face what has been left unsaid for many years.
