Finding God’s Presence in Fear and Family
In this moving episode of The Walk, Bethel Music worship leaders Paul and Hannah McClure share their journey of faith, worship, and family. From their roots as teenage worship leaders in North Carolina to writing anthems like I Belong to Jesus and Even Though I Walk, the McClures open their hearts about walking through miscarriage, confronting fear, and finding God’s presence in every season.

They remind us that worship isn’t about performing for others but about returning to our first love—and that the truest songs often come from our hardest valleys.

Episode Highlights

  • Worship as a weapon against fear and anxiety

  • The story behind I Belong to Jesus and Even Though I Walk

  • Balancing family life with ministry and touring

  • The power of excellence and anointing in worship

  • Why identity must be rooted in Christ, not the stage
