VIDEO: MercyMe Remembers ‘The Moment’ They Met Jesus

Posted on Monday, August 4, 2025 by Michaela Halfast

What was it like when you met Jesus for the first time? While everyone’s salvation story is different, MercyMe’s “The Moment” tells one familiar to many: raising a hand during an altar call, praying with a preacher and starting a new life with Christ.

From the first verse, frontman Bart Millard sets the scene of his personal encounter against a backdrop of finger-picked acoustic guitar and four-on-the floor rhythm. In the chorus, the former K-LOVE Fan Awards host relays advice he received in that moment – when things get difficult, you can always point to that experience as the day you were met with God’s saving grace.

Despite its brevity, “The Moment” packs a storytelling punch that’s equal parts tender and poignant. For a heartwarming reminder of your own salvation moment, take a few minutes to enjoy this exclusive performance from MercyMe filmed live at the K-LOVE Studios.
