When one of the lady’s said, “I can only imagine” made me laugh! Any MercyMe fans? Haha

Tessa Granville the directors that directed I can only imagine, are the directors of I still believe!

yooo this is the most comfortable ive seen Kj on lol his personality is coming through

[@lia-bu4up]

Definitely yes

[@johnjungkook2721]

I think he's more experienced now. People forget that he was eighteen when he started Riverdale, and he didn't have much experience

[@valeriagomezmusic]

He looks like a fish in the water, as comfortable as it can get and I guess is because he feels full filled and satisfied with the movie, that is how we all look when we takes leaps of faith towards our God given destiny and decide to accept the calling. We can’t help but shine without apologizing for it.

KJ was amazing as Jeremy Camp. We loved the movie.

[@hannahfisher9456]

the actors acted the real life people and story so perfectly

[@nicktaylor6333]

So glad he went through with it and pushed through the initial fear. That movie had an impact on me and my faith, and even more so now that I know he was fearful at first. I know what it's like to be hit with fear of stepping out in faith like that, but from an entrepreneurs perspective. That was incredibly inspiring.

[@mckenzienicole8575]

Did anyone notice how they cut KJ's talking at 4:07? I'm assuming because the movie is Christ based that they cut what KJ was describing the message as:( Sad to see.

[@estiloproductions1778]

McKenzie Nicole yeah that’s actually sad

[@melaniaion.l.2697]

McKenzie Nicole wait. Why did they do that?

[@mckenzienicole8575]

Because this radio show is secular and they don’t want faith/ or Christianity to intermingle with the show:(

Well he did an amazing job on the film and i like the songs in his voice. So fresh and natural

[@valeriagomezmusic]

Wow this is really messed up!!! ( cutting a piece because it doesn’t convey you, check min 4:07 ) For real, people can go to this shows and be cynical about all kind of things, but yet they don’t take their words from the air . Now Ryan Seacrest asks KJ about what made him want to make this movie, and just because probably KJ’s answer was to related with God, just because of that, part of KJ’s answer was taken away. This is a proof of what is to come for the body of Christ that is why we should not wait to share and live out the gospel of Christ, we should make a good use of our “freedom of speech and believe” it still counts for most of us (at least if you are not famous and invited on Ryan Seacrest show or Ellen’s of course )because just how they cut KJ’s real motivation for the film, that is just what most anti Christ media streams want to do with all of us. I mean why taking it away, why? Just think about it. WHY? It reminds me of when they prohibit talking about God in school. The truth is they want to kill God in the eyes of this generation so they can rule over them. But that ain’t happening cause God has chosen people to raise up and bring awakening even in the midst of all of this! ( check the video at 4:07 min ) I’ m telling you the struggle is real.

[@hannahreinhardt3657]

Tragedy is why I don't cry. When I saw I Still Believe last night, the scene that made me weep and cry was him singing Walk By Faith in the hospital room because it reminded me of me singing my grandpa "to the other side" 11 years ago.

He’s only a quarter Samoan not half. His father is half Samoan. He’s always trying to overstate his Samoan heritage like Uce stop trying so hard lol.

[@johnjungkook2721]

From the perspective of nationality, he is half-Samoan. His father is a full Samoan citizen, and a chief. He is half Samoan, nationality-wise, and legally. He is quarter-Samoan racially. It's like when people say they're American, they don't always mean blood. My mother is American, so I call myself half American, even though she's not white and her grandparents were from elsewhere.

[@timkruse9912]

you sound like an idiot smh, he's still samoan, half this half that, it don't matter, he has samoan blood,
