Danny Gokey told People.com, "Many people know me from who I was on American Idol, but I wanted to write a song and film a video in such a way that it showed people that this is the other side of my story that a lot of people don't know. I'm grateful for all the blessings that I've received in this life. You think about where I was in 2009 and where I am now, I have lost a spouse and went on American Idol and lost my music career and restarted my music career and got married and had kids…"

The album showcases features with artists such as Koryn Hawthorne ("We All Need Jesus"), Christine D'Clario ("Cristo Es Necesario"), and Angie Rose ("Do For Love").
