Join this Unforgettable MercyMe at Sea Cruise to the Caribbean!
2022 will be our 6th cruise with Inspiration Cruises & Tours. We always find cruises fun and relaxing, but who knew so many of you would want to hang out with us, our families, and some of our friends for a week of concerts and teaching in the beautiful Caribbean?
We’re thrilled to invite you to join us from January 8-15, 2022 for a Caribbean adventure. We’ll visit jaw-dropping destinations in Jamaica, Grand Cayman, Key West and our personal favorite Half Moon Cay (Bahamas).
We’ll bring some incredible friends to inspire your Christian walk. Our hope is that you'll experience a week of laughter, luxury, spiritual inspiration, restoration, and so many unforgettable moments with friends, old and new.
If you’re already part of the MercyMe at Sea travel community, we hope you’ll come along again in 2022. If you’ve thought cruising with us sounds like fun, but have never hopped aboard, now is your chance! This is a much anticipated and needed getaway for our families and us. The only thing that could make it better is having you there to enjoy it along with us!
Hope to see you in paradise!

Since his debut album, Cast My Cares, and his sophomore follow-up, Awake Our Souls, Tim Timmons has been busy writing songs for himself and with other artists, such as MercyMe. His songs, or as he calls them, ‘prayers', stem from personal experience. As a cancer survivor, he knows the extremes of sorrow and joy, and the depths from which God can lift us out of darkness. With that unique perspective, he curates songs that explore hope, truth and intimacy with Jesus that help people own their response to God’s calling in their lives. His latest project, Here, is a fierce, loud and daring album that not only encourages but dares listeners to put God first in their lives and watch as He permeates every crevice of it.

Mike Donehey has seen his fair share of the unexpected. Following a potentially fatal car crash as a teen, Mike learned to play the guitar while still in bed recovering from his injuries. Learning the guitar gave birth to songwriting, and that songwriting led to the formation of a band—Tenth Avenue North. Beginning with their acclaimed national debut, Over and Underneath, they grew their fan base with each new album and hit song including, “Love Is Here”, “By Your Side”, and “Control (Somehow You Want Me).”
Mike seized this opportunity and expanded as a storyteller, communicator and thought instigator in spaces where his voice could be heard. His acclaimed book, Finding God’s Life for My Will, was an immediate best-seller. His podcast, Chasing the Beauty, on AccessMore.com looks for the beauty of God in unexpected places. His debut solo album, Flourish, is out now and the first single from the album, “All Together,” is on radio playlists across the country.
