Your sermon doesn't have to end on Sunday


Hi Reader,

You spend dayssometimes weeks— preparing your sermon. Praying. Writing. Editing.

... then it gets 35 minutes of airtime on Sunday morning. And 78 views on YouTube.

That's it.

Not because it wasn't true. Not because you didn't deliver it well. But because, for so many churches, it's treated like an event.

The sermon is rarely the problem. The shelf life is.

Your sermon wasn't meant to end on Sunday...

If you've preached before, I'm sure you feel the tension.

That's why I'm excited to share this with you: Your Sermon Was Never Meant to End on Sunday, by Josh Burnett.

In the piece, Josh makes a simple but disruptive point.

Your sermon isn’t meant to be a Sunday event—it’s meant to become a weekly ecosystem that shapes conversation, discipleship, and vocabulary in the home.

If you spent fifteen or twenty hours preparing a sermon, why should it disciple people for only thirty-five minutes? He also shows you how to extend the life of the sermon you worked soooo hard on.
