Spilled Love

What if music was more than art — more than sound — what if it was sacred? 

This sermon invites us into a powerful reflection on music not just as an emotional force, but as a spiritual one. Imagine a world where music is worshipped, not in idolatry, but in reverence — as the purest language between the human soul and the divine.

In this vision, music becomes a living faith. The rhythm is prayer, melody is scripture, harmony is communion. It doesn’t matter what name you call your god — when the beat drops or the strings weep, you feel it. You bow not out of ritual, but because the sound has gripped your spirit.

This text explores the sacred nature of sound, the way music can possess us — not to control, but to awaken. It energizes the tired, lifts the broken, and breathes life into the weary. Just like a religion, music gives us meaning, a ritual, a sense of connection to something greater. It speaks to us, shapes us, and sometimes saves us.

Whether it’s gospel, blues, techno or symphony — in this worldview, music is the holy fire, and we are the altar. The sermon challenges us to treat our listening as sacred practice, to curate our playlists like sacred texts, and to let music guide us not just to emotion, but to transcendence.

Praise the Music

If I had the chance, I would say,  
Forgive me, my self, for not having fought,  
For the wounds that time does not heal,  
For every smile that was erased.
