Tim Timmons was given five years to live 25 years ago. Diagnosed with stage four incurable cancer, with tumors still on his liver today, he woke up again this morning. Featured in the new I Am Second film and at the heart of I Can Only Imagine 2, Tim shares what it has looked like to hold onto Jesus through decades of uncertainty, and why the hardest seasons of his life became the greatest gifts.

Deconstruction, radical gratitude, and the practice of waking up with Jesus: Tim opens up about walking away from full-time ministry after 15 years, what he learned about the real church while hanging out at a rundown motel with homeless families and prostitutes, and why he quit working for God to simply be with Him. He also talks about how a chance friendship with Bart Millard became the heart of a major motion picture, what he writes on his wrist every single morning with a Sharpie, and why he believes if Jesus people actually practiced the heart of Jesus, the world would never be the same.

Highlights
Diagnosed with stage four incurable cancer 25 years ago and still waking up every day

How a casual friendship with Bart Millard became the story behind I Can Only Imagine 2
What Milo Ventimiglia brought to the role and why he acts more like Jesus than most Christians Tim knows

Tommee Profitt, award-winning composer and producer, has spent years making cinematic music for movie trailers, TV shows, and artists like NF and TobyMac. Now he is turning that same epic, orchestral sound toward something deeply personal. The Resurrection of a King is a 19-song album that reimagines beloved hymns as modern worship anthems, featuring voices like CeCe Winans, Crowder, Jenn Johnson, and Ben Fuller. Tommee opens up about why he felt urgently called to make this project, and what it felt like to score the moment Jesus walked out of the tomb.

Cinematic worship, the power of hymns, and a God the world desperately needs right now: Tommee shares why he believes the rich theology of classic hymns still has everything to say to a new generation, how a Friday night in a Michigan basement with his friend NF changed the trajectory of both their careers, and why after years of working in the mainstream music world, this album feels like a full-circle moment he did not see coming but could not ignore.

Highlights
How The Birth of a King Christmas album led to the idea for an Easter equivalent
What cinematic sound means and why orchestral weight changes the way we experience worship
What we lose when the church stops singing hymns and why their theology still matters
The story of how a casual Friday night with NF led to a record deal and a career-defining moment
The first time he heard his music in a Will Smith movie trailer and what that moment meant
How 5 million monthly Spotify streams reflect a life built on making music that is emotional and powerful
Why Resurrection of a King marks a full-circle shift back to his roots as a worship leader

Tommee Profitt on The Resurrection of a King and Reimagining Hymns

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/e95b62b8-0369-4131-acb9-b42400e7e4b7/transcript

Lee Strobel, author and Christian apologist, is executive producer of a compelling new documentary that makes the case that science and faith are not at odds — they never were. The Story of Everything, based on Stephen Meyer's book Return of the God Hypothesis, brings together some of the world's brightest scientific minds to examine the evidence for a designer behind the universe. Lee shares why he got behind this film, what he hopes it does for young believers sitting in skeptical classrooms, and why he believes the evidence is more than enough to put your trust in.

Scientific evidence, faith under fire, and the God who matches the data: Lee walks through his go-to argument for the existence of God, why he believes most skepticism is personal before it is intellectual, and what he found when he investigated Christianity as a Yale-trained atheist and legal journalist. He also opens up about why fatherlessness and atheism are more connected than people realize, and what he wants both skeptics and Christians to walk away with after seeing this film.

Highlights
Why science, when done right, points powerfully toward the God of the Bible
How Lee's high school science classes were a major step in his journey toward atheism
The cosmological argument and what it reveals about the nature of the creator
Why most rejection of God is personal before it is philosophical or scientific
The surprising connection between fatherlessness and the rise of atheism in America
What the film says to someone who wants to believe but worries the evidence isn't there
Lee's own story, from Yale-trained atheist and Chicago Tribune journalist to follower of Christ

Lee Strobel on The Story of Everything and Evidence for God

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/942e8433-46a3-426b-a390-b42400e40718/transcript

Bryce Crawford, evangelist, podcaster, and host of the Bryce Crawford Podcast, has built a life and ministry around one thing — taking the love of Jesus to the streets, literally. From his Jesus in the Street ministry to the I Love Jesus Tour currently taking him across the country, Bryce carries a boldness for the gospel that is hard to miss and even harder to explain without knowing his story. He opens up about the night in December 2020 when he was at his lowest point and how a real encounter with Jesus changed everything.

Faith, revival, and the hunger of a generation searching for truth: Bryce shares why he believes Gen Z is turning to Jesus in a way that is visible, tangible, and growing. He talks about what is driving the spiritual awakening he is witnessing on tour, why he believes boldness comes directly from the love God has shown him, and what he tells anyone who feels too timid to share their faith. This is a conversation about a life fully surrendered and a generation ready to hear the truth.

Highlights
Why Gen Z is tired of fake answers and turning to Jesus as the one real truth
The role the pandemic played in sparking a hunger for God among young people
His personal testimony, the night he planned to take his life and how Jesus met him there
How street evangelism started, running up to strangers, saying Jesus loves you, and running away
Why boldness is not a personality trait but a direct overflow of God's love
His challenge to skeptics, inviting them to let their questions lead them to the evidence
What people can expect when they show up to the I Love Jesus Tour
