Your church puts hours of preparation into every sermon. But once Sunday is over, that teaching often ends up as video or audio in a sermon archive where very few people ever find it again.<\/p>\n\n
Sermon Library turns that weekly preaching into a permanent, searchable library people can watch, listen to, read, study and return to.<\/p>\n\n
Sermon Library turns your weekly preaching into a permanent, searchable teaching library.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Every sermon gets its own page where people can watch the video, listen to the audio, read the transcript, explore an article, work through a Bible study, download resources and see the Scriptures connected to the message.<\/p>\n\n Visitors can explore your teaching by Scripture, series, speaker and topic. Someone studying Ephesians can find sermons your church has preached from Ephesians. Someone exploring prayer or marriage can browse messages on that subject. Someone considering a visit can read what your pastors actually teach instead of judging the church from a homepage and a few video thumbnails. Instead of becoming another chronological sermon archive, your teaching becomes a searchable library that members can return to and potential visitors can explore before they ever walk through the door.<\/p>\n\n Written sermon content is also available to search engines and AI assistants, helping your church\u2019s teaching become easier to discover through search long after Sunday is over.<\/p>\n\n Everything below is included in the free plugin. Sermon Library AI is an optional paid add-on described at the end.<\/p>\n\n A sermon can include video, audio, transcript, article, Bible study, sermon notes, Scripture references, speaker and series information, and downloadable PDFs.<\/p>\n\n And everything stays connected to the original sermon instead of being scattered across separate posts and pages. A visitor may read instead of watching a 45-minute video. A member who missed Sunday may listen later. Someone studying a passage may find the sermon through Scripture. A small group may use the Bible study during the week.<\/p>\n\n Scripture.<\/strong> Browse sermons by book, chapter and passage. Overlapping passages are understood intelligently, so a sermon on Ephesians 6:10-20 can be found by someone looking at Ephesians 6:15.<\/p>\n\n Topics.<\/strong> Organize teaching around subjects people actually want to explore.<\/p>\n\n Series.<\/strong> Give every series its own artwork, description, date range and archive.<\/p>\n\n Speakers.<\/strong> Create speaker profiles with a photo, biography, links and every sermon they have preached.<\/p>\n\n Together, these turn years of Sunday messages into an interconnected body of teaching rather than a long list of recordings.<\/p>\n\n Many sermon archives give search engines little more than a title and embedded video.<\/p>\n\n Sermon Library makes the underlying teaching available as indexable written content and adds structured information about sermons, speakers, audio, video and Scripture. That gives Google, other search engines and AI assistants more context for understanding what your church teaches.<\/p>\n\n Someone may discover your church while searching for a Bible passage, theological question, topic or sermon article. They did not have to be searching for your church to find something your church taught.<\/p>\n\n Use A message preached two years ago can continue helping someone today.<\/p>\n\n Sermon libraries develop gaps. One sermon is missing a transcript. Another has no Scripture reference. Another is missing artwork, notes or written content. Sermon Library helps you close those gaps with completeness scores that show what each sermon is missing and how your library is improving overall.<\/p>\n\n Every sermon receives a completeness score<\/strong>, showing how fully its page has been built out and exactly what could be improved.<\/p>\n\n Sermon Library also calculates an overall completeness score for your entire library<\/strong>, so you can see how consistently your church is building useful sermon records across everything you have published.<\/p>\n\n The Completeness Report shows:<\/p>\n\n The score uses only the content your church has chosen to publish. If you do not use Bible studies, missing Bible studies will not lower your score.<\/p>\n\n Instead of wondering where your sermon library needs work, you can see where it stands and what to improve next.<\/p>\n\n Sermon Library imports from Sermon Manager, Sermon Works, Mattytap Sermons and Series Engine.<\/p>\n\n For supported WordPress plugins, the importer reads sermon data already on your site, shows you what it found and lets you review it before anything is written. Original plugin data is left untouched. It can also identify duplicate speaker names and help you consolidate them during migration.<\/p>\n\n Series Engine imports from CSV with a review and mapping step before anything is created.<\/p>\n\n Sermon Library creates an iTunes-compatible RSS feed for Apple, Spotify and other similar platforms. Create a feed for the whole church or filtered feeds for a series, speaker or topic.<\/p>\n\n Everything above is included in the free Sermon Library plugin.<\/p>\n\n Sermon Library gives every sermon a place for a transcript, article and Bible study. Sermon Library AI creates this content for you.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n Upload the sermon recording you already made, and Sermon Library AI processes what was actually preached and prepares the transcript, article and Bible study inside the sermon.<\/p>\n\n Nothing publishes automatically. Generated content is staged for review so your church stays in control.<\/p>\n\n Instead of spending hours transcribing, summarizing and writing after every Sunday, your team can begin with the recording you already made, review the generated content and build a more complete sermon record.<\/p>\n\nOne sermon becomes many ways to engage<\/h4>\n\n
