He believed this project needed to be approached as his own personal mission." I wanted to respect that.I am honored to be able to share this journey with my fans.that they allowed me a glimpse into their lives and what God is doing in and through them.'" Due to this, West stated "he enlisted the help of his 'most trusted advisors' (aka, mom and dad) to comb through the stacks of stories, he was the primary reader and most of the songwriting was done solo. More than 10,000 before he headed to the cabin, which he soon reserved for an additional month." To these stories, West was highly careful and sensitive because "'people were intrusting me with their deepest confessions. Matthew West started out this album by saying "'what if I turned the microphone around? What if this time, instead of using the stories of my own life to write the songs, what if I asked people to tell me their stories?'" After he asked the question of fans, West "'.reserved a cabin outside of Nashville for a month'" to this task West only thought he ".hoped to get 500-600 responses, maybe." Yet, West was soon proved wrong, when just on the "first two days, 1,000 emails had landed in his inbox", and according to West the emails "most began 'I've never told this to anyone before.' Tales of both heartache and happiness poured in. The album was recorded at the following studios Dark Horse Recording Studio in Franklin, Tennessee, Townsend Sound in Franklin, Tennessee and Vibe 56 in Nashville, Tennessee by the producers Brown Bannister and Pete Kipley.
