LOS ANGELES, March 2, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- The uplifting, new film WALKING WITH HERB takes audiences on an 18-hole rollercoaster ride as one man discovers how the impossible can become possible through faith, family and second chances . . . and with the help of God's motorcycle-riding messenger!

Guided by God's eccentric personal messenger, Herb, Joe learns that the seemingly impossible is possible…through faith, family and second chances.
