Next album ="Walking Miracle" is the eleventh overall album of gospel singer
Vanessa Bell Armstrong , and first forEMI Gospel .Leading up to its release, "Miracle" was heavily touted as a comeback effort citing Armstrong's recent family and health challenges that forced a 6-year hiatus from recording. During the recent years since leaving her recording contract with Jive/Verity, her marriage dissolved and she suffered a stroke. The title track as well, produced by Jerkins, was written for and dedicated to Armstrong's son who was suffering from multiple sclerosis during the recording of the album.

The genre makeup of the album is evenly divided between traditional gospel styled ballads courtesy of Cedric Caldwell and Grammy-winner Smokie Norful, and ultra modern R&B beats courtesy of super-producers Rodney Jerkins and Fred Jerkins III.
