Everything sermon prep needs, nothing it doesn't

One distraction-free workspace instead of a desk full of tabs, notebooks, and sticky notes.

📝

Outline builder

Structure each point the way preachers actually prep: title, explanation, Scripture, illustration, application — drag to reorder, expand as you write.

📖

Bible at your side

Look up any passage in a side panel without leaving your outline — compare translations, drop verses straight into a point.

AI study assistant

Ask for illustration ideas, cross-references, original-language insight, or a different angle on a text — suggestions you can accept or ignore.

🗂️

Study vault

Every sermon, outline, quote, and piece of research saved and searchable — your prep compounds instead of disappearing into old notebooks.

🧱

Sermon templates

Start from proven structures — three-point expository, topical, narrative, textual — or a blank page if that's how you work.

🎙️

Pulpit view

One click turns your outline into a clean, large-type preaching view — big points, your notes, nothing else on the screen.

Outlines that think like a preacher

Every point carries its own explanation, Scripture, illustration, and application — so your structure and your substance live in one place.

  • Point-by-point structure with drag-to-reorder
  • Scripture pinned to each point
  • Big-idea and bottom-line fields keep you focused
  • Word count and speaking-time estimate as you write

A study partner that never writes your sermon

The AI assistant is built for prep, not shortcuts — it suggests, you decide. Ask it for what you'd ask a well-read friend across the desk.

  • Illustration ideas matched to your point
  • Cross-references and parallel passages
  • Historical and original-language context
  • Quote suggestions with sources
Give me an illustration for "goodness follows; it doesn't lead" — Psalm 23:6
A sheepdog runs behind the flock, not ahead of it. The sheep rarely see it — but every move it makes keeps them on the path. David says God's goodness and mercy pursue us the same way…
