Preaching chords are blues/gospel-inspired chords played on a Hammond organ or piano, and many times with a drum set as well, near the end of a pastor or minister's sermon to accentuate, emphasize, and respond to them in a musical way.[1][2] Like the related tradition of sermonic "whooping" (pronounced like "hooping"), these chords are most often used in the Black Church and Pentecostal traditions.
