Faith & Spirit Quote by Della Reese

"Each week, from a different point of view, you get another look at God, and that's exciting to me"

About this Quote

There is a performer’s instinct baked into this line: the idea that revelation isn’t a lightning bolt, it’s a weekly angle change. Reese frames faith the way TV frames a character - not as a fixed doctrine but as an unfolding series of perspectives. “Each week” makes spirituality feel lived-in, scheduled, almost communal, suggesting religion as an ongoing conversation rather than a private epiphany. The thrill isn’t certainty; it’s the refresh.

Context matters because Reese wasn’t just any musician tossing off a pious thought. She became widely associated with spiritual storytelling through Touched by an Angel, a show that translated big metaphysical questions into approachable, episodic lessons. The quote quietly borrows that structure: different “points of view” implies different people, different stories, different wounds. God is not presented as a thesis to defend but as a presence refracted through human experience - a very entertainer’s theology, where meaning arrives through narrative.

The subtext is pluralistic without sounding political. Reese signals openness: if God can look different depending on where you stand, then no one gets to monopolize the divine. That’s a soft rebuke to rigid gatekeeping, delivered in the warm register of someone who understands audiences. The word “exciting” does the cultural heavy lifting. It’s not “comforting” or “obedient.” It’s curiosity, energy, discovery - faith as something that keeps you alive, not something that closes the file.
