Music truly speaks to the soul in a language that transcends words.
During my recent ministry visit to Europe, I had the wonderful privilege of crossing paths with the BYU Singers. These devoted young people are currently traveling through the region ahead of the Musica Sacra International Festival in Germany, and they happened to perform in the very chapel in Salzburg that I was dedicating the same weekend! It felt entirely inspired—as though their music helped prepare not only the building, but also our hearts.
Listening to their talented voices testify of Jesus Christ filled me with a deep, abiding gratitude. Music is a divine gift with a remarkable power to love, share, and invite. It reaches across cultures and languages, drawing us closer to one another and, most importantly, to the Savior.
