Taking Heaven By Storm is a contemporary Christian music album by Steve Camp and was released by Warner Alliance in 1993, serving as Camp's debut with that label. This album is best known for the title track. This is the first non-compilation album to feature a recording of an earlier song, which Camp would do with some of his albums near the end of his recording career. Here, the song was "It's a Dying World"; from the 1984 Word release of the same name.

It was produced by Michael Omartian, who co-wrote some of the tracks and also produced the album Mercy in the Wilderness.
