Sermon Design 2.0
Device: Mac OS
Category: Productivity
Price: $4.99, Version: 1.3.1 -> 2.0 (iTunes)
Description:Sermon Design helps you work through the process of planning sermons, keeping track of notes as you listen to the text, and then giving your sermons focus, structure and words.
Sermon Design is all about intentionality and creativity, walking you through each part of the sermon development process. It will help you ask the right questions at the right times and break out of your ruts of using the same old forms and tones in every sermon.
Plan ahead, laying out your schedule for upcoming sermons. Then, collect your notes during the week as you listen to the text. Give the sermon Focus by asking key questions about the message you want to deliver. Design your sermon's structure, building it out of predesigned "movements" in a graphical interface—simply drag the types of movements you want into the sermon and give them names, and rearrange them until you have your basic structure. For a little added creativity, the app makes available certain sermon forms as templates, so that you can consider which form would best fit the focus and function that you've discerned while listening to the text.
When you're ready to write, fill the movements with your own content. When you're done, either print a hard copy or export it in .rtf format for further formatting or editing in a word processor.
