I Can Only Imagine

I Can Only Imagine is the first e-short in Karen Kingsbury's The Rest of the Story series. In it, Karen shares very personal behind-the-scenes anecdotes about herself and her family that appear nowhere else in print, highlighted by her touching relationship with her late brother Dave. With heartfelt grace, she describes in-depth his ongoing struggles with addiction and his troubled journey toward redemption. Throughout this work, we're all reminded that God is close to the brokenhearted... and also that we have just one chance to create a bestseller with our lives by loving well, laughing often, and finding true life in Jesus Christ.
