MercyMe’s Bart Millard: Success, Struggle, and I Can Only Imagine 2

In this episode of Arroyo Grande, MercyMe frontman Bart Millard - voice behind I Can Only Imagine - reveals the truth about success: it doesn’t fix what’s broken. At the height of his fame, Millard was battling depression, family struggles, and his son’s diabetes diagnosis. He shares how hitting rock bottom - and the song Even If - helped pull him back. From the real story behind I Can Only Imagine to the pressures of life on the road, Millard opens up about pain, faith, and the tension between public success and private suffering. A raw, honest conversation about endurance, healing, and holding on - even when life doesn’t go as planned. 👉 Subscribe to Arroyo Grande for in-depth conversations on culture, faith, art, and meaning.
