Your first sermon, step by step

Use an audio recording you have permission to process, or paste transcript text. Keep your own copy of the source recording.

  1. 1. Create and verify your account

    Choose Get Started, register with your email address, and open the confirmation message in your inbox. Imported accounts can use an email sign-in link and set a password in Settings → Account Security.

  2. 2. Open New Entry

    Choose an audio file or paste text into Additional Notes / Transcript Text. Common audio formats include MP3, WAV, and M4A. The upload limit is 500 MB, and compatibility depends on encoding.

  3. 3. Choose your output

    Review the entry details and analysis preferences. The optional Generate 5-day devotional setting creates a public link that anyone with the link can read. Leave it off if you do not want to create that link.

  4. 4. Upload, then let processing finish

    Keep the page open until audio upload reaches 100%. Analysis then continues in the background. Processing Jobs shows progress, errors, and available retry or cancel actions. Text-only analysis requires the page to remain open until it saves.

  5. 5. Recover an interrupted upload

    If the page closes before upload completes, return to Processing Jobs and select the same original file. Completed upload parts are retained so the transfer can resume.

  6. 6. Review and reuse your sermon

    Open the completed sermon and check the transcript, scripture references, quotations, and analysis. Edit mistakes, add tags or collections, and export TXT or Markdown. Review a generated devotional before sharing its public link.

Successfully processed source audio is deleted. If audio cleanup fails, Processing Jobs offers a cleanup retry. Need help? Contact support.
