How it works

Simple Process

From passage to pulpit in minutes

Give SermonCraft your scripture, theme, and congregation — get back a full outline ready to preach.

01

Enter Your Passage

Type a scripture reference or paste the text. Add a theme or topic if you have one in mind.

02

Set Your Context

Choose your denomination, congregation tone, and service type (Sunday morning, midweek, youth, etc.).

03

Get Your Outline

Receive a structured outline with 3 key points, illustrations, cross-references, and a closing call to action.

04

Refine & Export

Edit inline, regenerate any section, and export to PDF or copy directly to your notes app.

Features

What You Get

Everything a preacher needs

Built specifically for ministry — not generic AI writing tools.

📖

Scripture-First Outlines

Every outline starts with the text. Cross-references and related passages are suggested to deepen your preparation.

🎯

Congregation-Aware

Set your denomination, tone (expository, topical, narrative), and audience so the output matches your pulpit style.

💡

Illustration Suggestions

Get 3–5 illustration ideas per sermon — stories, analogies, and cultural hooks that land with your congregation.

🔁

Regenerate Any Section

Don't like a point? Regenerate just that section without losing the rest of your outline.

📄

Export Anywhere

Copy to clipboard, export as PDF, or share a link with your worship team or co-pastors.

🗂️

Sermon History

Every outline you generate is saved. Build a searchable library of your past sermons over time.

"The average pastor spends 10–20 hours per week on sermon preparation. SermonCraft gives that time back — without replacing the Holy Spirit." — The Vision Behind SermonCraft AI
