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
What deconstruction and reconstruction really looked like in his own faith journey
Leaving a massive Orange County church to hang out with homeless families at a rundown motel
Why he quit working for God and chose to simply live with Him instead
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
What 10,000 Minutes is and why he believes Christians are fat on content but anemic on practice

Butch Wilmore, retired NASA astronaut, US Navy test pilot, and one of only two people to have flown five different spacecraft, boarded Boeing's Starliner for what was supposed to be an eight-day test mission to the International Space Station. It lasted 286 days. His new book, Stuck: An Astronaut's Hope Through the Unexpected, tells the full story, and he opens up here about what he knew before the mission even launched, the thruster failures that changed everything, and how the contentment Paul wrote about from a prison cell turned out to be exactly what he needed 250 miles above Earth.

Space exploration, unshakable faith, and the hope that holds when you cannot come home: Butch walks through the moment he realized they likely would not return on Starliner, why he privately told his wife and daughters a month before NASA made the official call, and what it looks like to trust God when your eight-day mission becomes nine and a half months. He also shares why he believes science and faith are not in conflict, what the Aurora Borealis from space reveals about God's protection of our planet, and why after circling Earth 7,424 times, he is more convinced than ever that this world was made by design.

Highlights
Why Butch told Boeing executives before launch that the thrusters and valves were his biggest concern, and how that proved exactly right
The moment he realized mid-docking that they likely would not return on Starliner, and why he kept it to himself at first
What Philippians 4 contentment actually looks like when you are stuck in space with no return date
Seeing the Aurora Borealis from orbit and why it reflects God's deliberate protection of Earth
Why he believes the creator of science cannot be in conflict with science, and how Satan has deceived people into thinking otherwise
What launch, reentry, and all three landing types feel like, and why he compares the Dragon capsule to a Volkswagen Beetle
His friendship with Artemis 2 pilot Victor Glover and why neither of them will shy away from their faith when asked

Barry "Butch" Wilmore on 286 Days in Space and the Starliner Mission

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/8cf6508a-d901-4e0c-a408-b43900e81bfa/transcript

Billy Hallowell, journalist and host of a new CBN documentary, has spent years covering faith and the supernatural, but it wasn't until he started investigating firsthand accounts of angels and demons that his own skepticism was put to the test. Angels and Demons is the follow-up to his earlier film on miracles, and it goes beyond Hollywood sensationalism to bring in scientists, scholars, and Ivy League-educated experts who have changed their minds after coming face to face with evidence they could not explain away.

The supernatural, spiritual warfare, and the stories skeptics cannot easily dismiss: Billy walks through the case of Bruce Van Natta, a man crushed under a semi-truck who claims to have seen angels and survived against all odds, and the chilling story of Julia, a Satan worshiper whose experiences convinced Columbia University professor and psychiatrist Dr. Richard Gallagher that possession is real. He also opens up about why he believes the supernatural is becoming one of the most powerful apologetics tools for reaching a generation that has had secularism pushed on them, and why after 27 years in media, he still believes the most important story anyone can tell is one that points people toward God.

Highlights
Why Angels and Demons started as a TV series and became a feature documentary
The story of Bruce Van Natta, crushed under a semi-truck, who claims to have seen angels and lived
How Dr. Richard Gallagher, an Ivy League-educated Columbia University psychiatrist, went from skeptic to believer
The disturbing details of Julia, a Satan worshiper whose abilities shook even the most credentialed skeptics
Why Billy believes supernatural evidence is becoming a compelling apologetics tool for reaching Gen Z
Why Hollywood's portrayal of demons is both mockery and misdirection, and what Scripture actually says
How Billy got his start in media at age 15 in the wake of the Columbine shooting and never looked back

Billy Hallowell on Angels, Demons, and Investigating the Supernatural

https://api.omny.fm/orgs/5e27a451-e6e6-4c51-aa03-a7370003783c/clips/5b624bd3-9940-4065-903c-b43900e80aa4/transcript

Stephen Meyer, author, philosopher of science, and senior fellow at the Discovery Institute, has spent decades making the case that the universe points unmistakably to a designing mind. The Story of Everything is the cinematic adaptation of his book Return of the God Hypothesis, four years in the making and releasing in theaters April 30, bringing together 22 scientists and scholars to walk audiences through the discoveries that are pulling even skeptics back toward theism.

Scientific evidence, intelligent design, and the digital code inside every living cell: Stephen walks through his three core arguments, the universe's finite beginning, the fine-tuning that made life possible against all odds, and the four-character digital code embedded in DNA that Bill Gates himself has compared to software more complex than anything humans have ever written. He also shares how he talks about this with Uber drivers and seatmates on airplanes, why college students are having their faith mocked out of them in university classrooms, and why he believes this film gives both believers and skeptics something they genuinely need.

Highlights
Why the idea of a designer behind the universe was the dominant view from ancient Greece through the scientific revolution
How Darwin, Marx, and Freud together shifted the intellectual world toward materialism in the late 19th century
The three arguments from Return of the God Hypothesis, a beginning, fine-tuning, and digital information in DNA
Why Bill Gates' comparison of DNA to software is one of Meyer's most powerful 30-second arguments
What the impasse in origin-of-life research reveals, and why chemistry simply does not move toward life on its own
Why this film is something Christians can bring their skeptical friends to without fear
