The storm we can’t calm.

The Story Behind the Song
This song, “Walk With Me,” came from that place. Not from a mountaintop
moment, but from a deep, personal wrestling. We had been carrying so much
inside. We felt stuck in our own minds, wanting so badly to break free, but not

Then we watched the episode of The Chosen, where they portrayed Peter
walking on the water. But this time, it wasn’t about the miracle. It was about
Peter’s heart. He was grieving. He was exhausted. He felt like he had failed Jesus.
And yet, when the storm hit, Jesus came to him anyway. Not to scold him, not to
fix him, but to call him out into something deeper.

uncontrollable, the fear and evil that threaten to undo us. In Genesis, God
hovers over the chaotic waters. In Exodus, He makes a path through them. And
in the Gospels, Jesus walks on them
