I’ve loved every magazine writing assignment I’ve received from Reach Out, Columbia magazine. But some have been simply surreal. Like interviewing Mike Scheuchzer of my favorite band, MercyMe.
MercyMe is best known for their #1 song and box office hit, I Can Only Imagine.
Mike and I chatted for an hour, and I came away with an even greater appreciation of the ministry and character of this award-winning band.
Read the full article (and download a PDF of it) at Reach Out, Columbia: Well, MercyMe! It’s Time to Worship and Happy Dance.
Enjoy their updated version of I Can Only Imagine as mentioned in the article:
And check out two of my favorite MercyMe videos:
Happy Dance shows off their goofy side, while God With Us displays their greatest desire—that the world would know Christ, God with us.

This is a great article and a tremendous tribute to our awesome God and those He’s called to declare His glory by ushering people into His presence through praise and worship.
Wonderful article and masterful job capturing MercyMe’s mind for Christ and sharing it withr so many of their fans.
Thanks, JD! I was thrilled to hear their heartbeat is to truly worship God and draw people to Christ. And have fun. 🙂
Thanks! I so wanted to honor God with this article and reflect MercyMe’s deep desire to declare God’s glory through God’s gift to them of getting to lead people into praise and worship. Your comment really encouraged me. Thanks so much!
