Summary

SummaryI remember lying in that hospital bed, moments from surgery to repair my vocal cords, believing I might never sing again 😢. Weeks of silence forced me to rest in Psalm 46:10, “Be still and know that I am God,” and reminded me that my worth isn’t tied to performance 🙏. Baby‐step by baby‐step, counting ten words, twenty words, I rediscovered my voice—and my identity—as God’s beloved child 🎤❤️. Today, sharing this story on stage in Amarillo, Texas, I sing with urgency and gratitude, trusting that every word is His gift 🎶✨.

At the height of his success in the industry, Matthew West was told he would need surgery to repair his severe damage to his vocal chords… and that he may never be able to sing again. What followed was a season of wrestling — with fear and doubt, and his own sense of purpose and identity. It forever re-defined how he viewed his calling as a musician.
