TobyMac and
Trevor McNevan
Unite

for “Walk Thru Fire”


When Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego stood before the fiery furnace, they made their position clear: “But if not, be it known unto thee, O king, that we will not serve thy gods, nor worship the golden image which thou hast set up.” Daniel 3:18, KJV

 

That declaration of faith and courage is at the heart of the upcoming film Daniel and the Fiery Furnace, and now it is inspiring a brand new musical collaboration between two familiar names in Christian music.

TobyMac and Thousand Foot Krutch’s Trevor McNevan have teamed up for their debut original single, “Walk Thru Fire,” which will be featured in the upcoming film. The collaboration brings together two artists who are no strangers to movie soundtracks, making this an especially exciting team up for fans of both artists.

TobyMac, in particular, has had several songs featured in films throughout his career. His song “Extreme Days” was featured in Extreme Days, “Feeling So Fly” appeared in The Game Plan, “The Slam” was featured in Never Back Down, and “Steal My Show” appeared in Grace Unplugged.

McNevan is right on his tail. Through his work with Thousand Foot Krutch, he has also seen the band’s music featured in several films. Thousand Foot Krutch’s “Unbelievable” was featured in Just Wright, while “Move” appeared in Skyline. The band’s song “Fire It Up” was featured in Ice Castles, and “Move” was also featured in Barricade.

But this team up is something special.

“Walk Thru Fire” was created specifically for Daniel and the Fiery Furnace, connecting the story’s themes of faith and standing firm with a message that McNevan says is personally meaningful to him.

“It was such a thrill to be part of the Daniel movie and to create a song for such a powerful story. Getting to bring music into a moment like this, with a message that means so much to me personally, was a real honor. I’m incredibly grateful to be a small part of it,” said Trevor McNevan.

And the cool part is that “Walk Thru Fire” is not the only song inspired by Daniel and the Fiery Furnace. There is a whole soundtrack for the motion picture, giving the film an even bigger musical presence.

The tracklist includes “Walk Thru Fire” by Trevor McNevan featuring TobyMac, “Daniel 2: Light Dwells with Him” by Project of Love, “I Choose Yahweh” by Phil King, “Stand Our Ground” by Aaron Shust, “Psalm 23” by Miqedem, “We Cry Out” by Sarah Smith, and “Jeremiah 29: I Know the Plans I Have for You” by Project of Love.

Fans will not have to wait long to experience the new collaboration. The “Walk Thru Fire” music video is scheduled to release September 11, followed by the full soundtrack on September 18.

That same day, Daniel and the Fiery Furnace will officially arrive in theaters across the country. The film will bring the powerful biblical story to the big screen, giving audiences the opportunity to experience Daniel’s story of faith, courage and standing firm in the face of the fire.

For fans of TobyMac, Trevor McNevan and Thousand Foot Krutch, “Walk Thru Fire” brings together two artists with a long history of powerful music and movie moments. But more than that, the song gives a new voice to an ancient story about what it means to stand firm when the heat is on.

The countdown is now on. The “Walk Thru Fire” music video arrives September 11, the soundtrack arrives September 18, and Daniel and the Fiery Furnace hits theaters September 18, bringing this powerful story of faith and courage to life on the big screen.
