AI sermon prep checklist
Published 5 days ago • 1 min read
Hi Reader,
When it comes to AI in sermon prep, much should you use AI? Let it write a first draft? Let it guide you? Look, sermon writing is hard. I get it. Here's waht I believe (not think, believe): If you skip the struggle, you skip God.
If you outsource the wrestling match to AI—the part where the text does its work on you first—you bypass the whole point.
The question isn't whether to use it... that ship has sailed for most of us.
The question is where it actually helps, and where it quietly gets in the way of the work God is doing in you before He does it through you.
So I made something to help you draw the line clearly.
