A couple of months ago, I was sitting on a panel answering questions at the London Music Ministry Conference.

I never answer questions very well, but those times always give me a chance to explain in these articles what I would have liked to have said on the panel if I’d have had the time or clarity of mind.

The question that I fluffed this time was one about how to help people respond emotionally to spiritual truths through music without manipulating people to make superspiritual responses.
