When a story resonates across generations, it’s usually because it touches something deeply human. Tim Timmons has that kind of story. He’s the focus of
I Can Only Imagine 2, a movie focusing on redemption, relationships, and the impact of people who choose to show up when it matters most. In this episode of the All Pro Dad Podcast, host Ted Lowe is joined by Tim to talk about the movie and his role as a dad.
Why This Matters
The on-screen lessons from the movie can be implemented in your home today.
Who is Tim Timmons?
· Christian singer, songwriter, and worship leader known for joyful, authentic storytelling
· Best known for hit songs like “Cast My Cares” and “All About You”
· Built a strong following through music that blends faith, humor, and real-life honesty
· Passionate advocate for intentional faith, family, and meaningful connection
· Diagnosed with terminal cancer of unknown origin in 2000. Doctors told him he had just five years to live
Why Intentional Fatherhood Matters:
In the film, Tim’s character (played by Milo Ventimiglia) embodies themes of perseverance, grace, and transformation. These aren’t just cinematic ideas; they’re the building blocks of healthy families. Every dad, at some point, faces moments when he has to decide whether to disengage or lean in, react or respond with wisdom, or drift or lead with intention.
Tim Timmons’s voice—both in the film and beyond it—invites dads to rethink what influence really looks like. It’s not about control; it’s about connection. It’s not about having all the answers; it’s about being willing to walk alongside your kids as they grow.
Quotable Moment
Tim told Ted this powerful line: “I get drunk on worry all the time. I get drunk on worrying about my finances all the time. I get drunk on scarcity going, “I’m not going to have enough.” I get drunk on trying to work for God all the time. And I want to be more sober this year than I was last year.”
Enjoy this conversation and the movie, which hits theaters on February 20, 2026. I Can Only Imagine 2 is based on the heartfelt true story behind the hit single “Even If.” The aim is to “Inspire the next chapter of faith, family, and finding God in the fire.”
