who wrote the mega-hit song "I Can Only Imagine” after the loss of his
father opened at a remarkable No. 3 at the box office on Mar. 16, 2018

memoir also released this year followed by the unveiling of I Can Only Imagine
– The Very Best Of MercyMe. MercyMe was named Top Christian Artist at the 2018
Billboard Music Awards, scored their sixth GRAMMY® nomination, was the top
winner at the fan-fueled K-LOVE Fan Awards including a win for Artist of the
