Hey, everybody! There is a saying that experience isn't the best teacher, but "evaluated" experience is. With that in mind, let's share some wins and lessons from yesterday's gatherings. - What went well? - What did you learn? - What might you do differently this coming Sunday? Post in the comments and let's talk about it. 👇

Preach360 1.5 is now live. Version 1.5 includes several highly requested features designed to make your workflow smoother, from prep to pulpit. Here is what is new in the Preach360 workspace today: 1. Podium Mode Podium Mode opens with a click from your manuscript panel, providing a clean, distraction-free view of your message optimized for preaching. Whether in light or dark mode, you can choose your font style and size and highlight text in a variety of colors. 👉 View the Podium Mode Tutorial. 2. Manuscript Word Count You now have a real-time word count tool directly inside the manuscript panel. Knowing your word count is one way to make sure your message remains focused and clear as we apply "the minimum effective dose principle." 3. Enhanced Sermon Organization As your library of PPGR sermons grows, keeping things organized is critical. You now have the full ability to move existing sermons into, out of, and between folders as needed. 4. Streamlined Support If you ever need to submit a Support Ticket, you'll now receive an automated email notification as soon as I respond to your message on the app. No more wondering if your question went through or checking back for an answer. You'll simply be notified via email for a more streamlined support experience. What’s Next? We are not slowing down. Our goal is to make Preach360 the most complete and intuitive gospel communication platform for your ministry. Here's a sneak peek at what is currently in the pipeline for summer: - Voice & Style Matching: You'll be able to upload past sermons so Preach360 can learn and seamlessly replicate your unique pastoral voice, tone, and vocabulary. - Legacy Sermon Conversion Utility: You will soon be able to import previous sermons directly into the Preach360 ecosystem for easy conversion to the PPGR framework. - Study Panel Document Attachments: We are adding the ability to attach your personal study documents, commentary insights, PDFs, and more directly to your sermon workspace. - Deep Research Mode: In addition to our already robust exegesis guide, we're developing a dedicated "deep-dive" biblical-theological study environment (think Logos) with the latest available search and analysis tools.

Of the four PPGR stages (Principle, Problem, Gospel, Response), which one requires the most wrestling for you on a weekly basis, and why?

I'm traveling to the beach with the family this week and will be off the grid most of the time. However, I want to make sure you're covered. So, while I'm on vacation, if you run into any technical snags, here are two quick ways to get help: - The Preach360 Troubleshooting Guide: I’ve put together a simple, step-by-step guide that covers the most common fixes (like performing a hard refresh to clear out "glitchy" cached data). You may access the guide here. - The In-App "Help" Button: Within the Preach360 web app, you can use the Help button to ask questions directly. It can even suggest specific solutions or help you reset your position if you feel "stuck" in a certain section. It will make a recommendation which you may approve or decline. If you still can't get the issue resolved, DM me here on Skool. I'll do my best to get back to you within 24 hours. Just in case... I recommend keeping a backup of your manuscript progress. I typically copy and paste to a Google Doc — just overwrite the previous version each time I paste the latest one. Hope this helps. Tethered to the cross with you, from the beach, 🏖️ McKay P.S.
