Wedding Sermons
Anyone use PPGR for a wedding sermon? I've done one, and have two more scheduled in the next 2 months. I'm reaching out for ideas, tips, advice.

@McKay Caston I agree. I was at a wedding last week and the preacher was all over the place. I was looking forward to the new essentials from our last office hours meeting, and now Freeform studio. Will get started on it shortly.

@Jon Varner I'll keep you posted. I did one over the summer on Eph 5:22-27, Jesus the True and Better Husband. It was fun but challenging because it was in a different context than the Sunday morning gathering.

Preach360 Freeform Studio (coming soon!)
I just started building the Preach360 Freeform Studio today. It's going to be a massive release, so it might take me some time to get it ready. It is going to be a workspace where you can create PPGR content for any context at all, whether it be a sermon, a staff devotion, a youth talk, a small group discussion, a Sunday school class, or anything. It also will have the capability of doing deep dive theological study, where you can then frame a theological topic from a PPGR perspective. I'm using this to prepare my seminary classes. So if I can do it there, I think we can do it anywhere. 😎 Will you be able to import into the Sermon Builder Studio. Of course! With one click. Just like the new Preach360 Essentials Studio. By the way, I'm writing 5 sermons for an upcoming weekend retreat using the Essentials Studio. So, I'll be the test dummy and let you know how it goes.

@Jon Varner thank you for that Jon. I'm so sorry to hear about your losses brother. My sister has 4 other kids, and my parents have a total of 20 grandchildren. Most of the kids have been affected in a traumatic way.

@McKay Caston wow. Thank you for sharing McKay. Losing a child is probably the most difficult trial in life.

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.

James 2:8-13 on the sin of partiality and the royal law of love. Anchor illustration was a social scorecard/accounting ledger you carry in your back pocket that you use to audit and evaluate people for their ROI or return on investment. We choose to pursue persons and relationships based on what we can gain from them. This is partiality and a sin.

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.

@McKay Caston thank you McKay. I completely agree that there is a huge difference between us prompting p360 and p360 prompting us.This question came to mind recently as a few brothers commented that my preaching has changed this year (in a good way). I wondered if someone were to wonder why the change, and check my outlines or manuscripts, would it be considered Ai generated? If so, should I get ahead of it?

That is good to know, thank you @Travis Johns. Often times preach 360 will take an abstract idea and make a metaphor or simile, giving you a visual. Sometimes they are funny and I discard, but sometimes they are quite creative and helpful. If so, I will use the metaphor to explain an abstract idea. I've actually never used the toggle for AI input. I will try that next week and see what happens.

@McKay Caston I have 35 minutes max. And lately I've been speaking more and more extemporaneously with the help of the keyword. This time around I became enraptured with the gospel movement and spent much time there. When I was through with it, I had about 5 minutes left and tried to zoom through the response and conclusion. It was rough.
