Paging Doctor Bebo. No, really.
The singer who once sang “I Will Lift My Eyes” is now more likely to say, “Stick out your tongue and say ahh.” The voice that once filled theaters and sanctuaries is now answering to a much different call and title: Jeffery “Bebo” Norman, P.A.-C., Physician Assistant – Ear, Nose, and Throat (ENT), Sleep Medicine. Nearly 30 years after his debut introduced listeners to one of CCM’s most thoughtful singer-songwriters, Norman now spends his days in clinics and operating rooms rather than green rooms and tour buses. For longtime fans, it may feel like an unexpected plot twist. For Norman, it’s actually a return to the original plan. Before music…

I Can Only Imagine 2 Isn’t the Sequel You Expect, And That’s the Point
When you think of movie franchises, a true-story rock biopic rarely gets the sequel treatment. Yet that’s exactly the bold move Kingdom Story Company and Lionsgate made when they returned to the world of Bart Millard and MercyMe.

How Do I Say Goodbye
Five years ago, I was handed a script for a movie about the life of Ronald Reagan. I was asked to write a song or two based on the story of his life. Honestly, I was not sure if I could. I didn’t know his story very well. Songwriting for me, from the age of 16 was just my form of free counseling. I have trouble feeling anything unless I write it down and put it to music. That way I can look back at a finished work and maybe recognize something of myself that I might understand. Popular songwriters know who their audience is, apart from themselves, and they…
