Since launching their career-defining single, “I Can Only Imagine,” MercyMe has propelled nearly 30 songs to the top of the charts, resulting in more than 65 multi-format No.1’s. Holding the record for the most No.1’s on Billboard’s Christian Airplay and Christian AC Airplay charts, the beloved collective has accrued a shelf full of accolades that boasts numerous Artist of theYear wins, GRAMMY® nominations, GMA Dove Awards, K-LOVE Fan Awards, American Music Awards, and a Billboard Music Award. Named Billboard’s Top Christian Artist of the 2000 and 2010 decades, the 10x-Platinum band has sold out some of the country’s most prestigious venues, including Radio City Music Hall and Red Rocks Amphitheatre. In addition, the celebrated act has appeared on “Good Morning America,” the “TODAY” show, “CBS This Morning,” “FOX & Friends,” ABC News, CNN and the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade, as well as in the pages of Entertainment Weekly, The New York Times, USA Today and more.
MercyMe made history in 2014 when “I Can Only Imagine” exceeded 2 million digital downloads, making the now 5x-Platinum hit the first song in Christian music to ever be certified Platinum and double-Platinum in the digital domain. In 2018, the once-in-a-lifetime single inspired a major motion picture based on Millard’s life. I Can Only Imagine 2, the film’s highly anticipated follow-up – focusing on the story behind MercyMe’s powerful declaration, “Even If” — is slated to premiere in theaters Feb. 20, 2026, via Lionsgate. The sequel features an all-star cast that includes J. Michael Finley, Milo Ventimiglia, Dennis Quaid, Trace Adkins and Sophie Skelton. Ahead of the film’s debut, the group will release their 12th studio album, Wonder & Awe (Aug.8,2025), featuring their latest No.1 single, “Oh Death.”
