Structuring your sermon shouldn't be a struggle. There's a Gospel-shaped outline already embedded in every text! You don't invent it. You unfold it.

A Pastor’s Personal Statement on Using AI Tools
I found this article by John Samson helpful as his public Personal Statement on how he uses AI in sermon prep. https://effectualgrace.com/2026/08/12/a-pastors-personal-statement-on-using-ai-tools/

Anchor Illustrations
What is an anchor image you've used recently that you found helpful? How did it carry the passage from beginning to end. Examples of these cases really help new folks see what anchor illustrations are and how they work. I'll go first. In a sermon on Psalm 51, I used the image of someone knocking on the front door while you're sorting dirty laundry in the den. What do you do? Hide? What if you could be free enough to open the door and say, "Come on in, excuse the mess." This carried because I was able to come back to the image over and over, the emotional issues related to it, and the concrete action of opening the door. The mess is real. Confessing the mess is hard. Jesus comes in to clean the mess for us. Now, we can be real, confessing the mess but celebrating the one who bore the stench in my place.

@Roy Burket This is fantastic, Roy! And very relatable to your context. Well done!

@Adam Tisdale This is one of my favorite images. My grandmother would needlepoint. Fom my perspective on the floor playing with my Hot Wheels, all I could see were cut and frayed ends. Random chaos. But from her perspective, everything was fitting together perfectly, just the way she intended, to make a beautiful picture that would become a pillow upon which to rest your head.

Whole Book PPGR (Daniel)…thoughts
Scripture Passage: Daniel Main Theme: Jesus is the greater Daniel, the faithful Son who willingly entered our exile to redeem us from the kingdoms of this world and bring us into his everlasting kingdom. Main idea: Jesus is the eternal Son of God and Son of Man who willingly entered our exile, suffered rejection and death, and rose victorious; he is the stone who crushes every earthly kingdom and the Son of Man who has received dominion, glory, and an everlasting kingdom, so that people from every nation and language might be delivered from exile and brought under his gracious reign to worship him forever. Keyword: Kingdom Principle: Humanity must humbly acknowledge God’s everlasting dominion over every kingdom (Dan. 4:34-37) Problem: In pride, humanity rejects God’s dominion and seeks to establish its own kingdom apart from him (Dan. 4:30; 5:2-4) Gospel: Jesus willingly entered our exile to redeem us from the dominion of sin and the kingdoms of this world and bring us into his everlasting kingdom (Dan. 7:13-14; 9:24–26) Response: By the Spirit, we humbly live as faithful citizens under the dominion of Christ’s everlasting kingdom while surrounded by the kingdoms of this world (Dan. 1:8; 3:16-18; 6:5, 10, 13)

Is Preach 360 AI generated?
No doubt some of you heard Claude is placing an invisible watermark on all of their output, including even if your work is only checked for grammar. Are the preach360 generated manuscripts and outlines considered "AI generated"? If so, this could be a problem for me, as I share my notes with media and our translation department. I do not want to be accused of having AI produce a sermon for me.

@Adin Husu my guess is that your preaching has changed this year because of the framework you're working with now, that is distinctively cross-tethered, enabling you to preach grace not only as a fallback for failure, but fuel for new life. So the improvement is mostly related to how you're preaching the gospel, and that's exciting. Concerning previous outlines and manuscripts, it really depends on how much you relied on Preach360 to shape the manuscript. My recommendation is that even if your final manuscript (after working through the process) sounds more like the AI than you, do a thorough word-for-word revision so that you own every word and that it sounds like you.

@Travis Johns @Adin Husu By the way, Claude's "watermark" is in the metadata, not an imprint on the document itself. And Preach360 presently is using Gemini 3.6 Flash as our primary engine for prompting, expository maps creation, generating small group guides, SS curriculum, etc. So no watermarks on our content, regardless of whether you have AI provide help or not.

Give us a Sunday update!
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. 👇

@David Hall This is the first fall in 12 years we haven't been moving someone into dorms. My wife almost started crying. But I suppose the end of one era is the beginning of another. And of course, I'm really glad the PPGR framework is helpful, especially for those unusually busy/hard weeks and seasons.

@Robin Silson @Robin Silson Ah, we actually consolidated AI involvement on the "Set Up Your Sermon" popup at the beginning of the sermon process. See the screenshot. We've also added the set up: additional text options, language choice, coaching levels, and word count. With manuscript generation, the AI either will not touch your words or will "polish" them by expanding ideas, improving transitions, etc.). You can indicate in the chat panel the level of polish—a little less, a little more, etc. Have you seen that yet? Would love feedback!
