KIM WALKER-SMITH
KIM WALKER-SMITH NEVER DREAMED OF STANDING IN A SPOTLIGHT. AS A TEEN, HER DECISION TO FOLLOW CHRIST LED HER TO ATTEND MINISTRY SCHOOL AT BETHEL CHURCH. Being the new kid on campus, and wanting to get
involved and connect, Kim thought “I’ve grown up singing ... maybe I should audition for a worship team.” She was set to audition, however during a time of prayer Kim genuinely felt the Lord push the hold button on auditioning, while simultaneously drawing her close to learn from Him. Over the next three years, the young believer’s focus was on building a relationship with the Lord and ultimately tuning into the sound of His voice. “During that time I would pray. I took those years to enforce the foundation of my relationship with God. Just as clearly as I had felt Him telling me to NOT audition early on, I can also remember the day that He said to wait on Him and His timing.” And so, Kim waited.
