The problem

Tuesday hits and the page is blank.

You have the text. You have the calling. What you don’t have is a thinking partner who asks the right questions instead of handing you someone else’s sermon.

AI sermon generators make it worse — they write for you, which means your congregation hears something borrowed. SermonCoach never writes. It only asks.

How it works

Three steps. No shortcuts.

01

Choose a text and a methodology

Pick your preaching passage and one of four proven frameworks — Lowry, Robinson, Stanley, or Quicke.

02

SermonCoach asks questions — you do the thinking

The coach works through each step with Socratic questions. An independent evaluator gates every transition — you can't skip the wrestling.

03

Walk into Sunday with a sermon that's entirely yours

Once every step is complete, a draft unlocks — built from your own language and theology, not AI prose.

Methodologies

Four frameworks. One coach.

Lowry Loop

Builds tension before resolution — keeps the congregation in suspense until the gospel lands.

Robinson Big Idea

Every sermon distilled to one central proposition. Everything else serves that idea.

Stanley Map

ME/WE/GOD/YOU/WE structure — starts where your people actually are, ends with a specific call.

Quicke 360°

Full-circle preaching that moves from text to world and back.

Pastor preaching confidently to congregation
What’s possible

Preach like it came from you.
Because it did.

Not because someone wrote it for you. Because you worked through every question the text was asking — and you found your own answers.

That’s what this tool is built for.

Why this exists

Built by someone who has stood where you stand.

I spent 12 years in the pulpit. I know what it feels like to open a text on Monday and not know what Sunday holds. I know the temptation to let a tool do the thinking for you — and what it costs when you give in to it.

SermonCoach refuses to write your sermon. It’s a coach, not a ghostwriter. Every question it asks is a question I wish someone had asked me before I stepped into the pulpit.

About Matt Headley →The story behind this tool →

“I’m so glad to see resurrection happening in Matt’s life and ministry. Inspiring!”

— Rev. Andy Curtis, Lead Pastor, Jacksonville First UMC

From preachers using SermonCoach

“When you using it to prepare the sermon, it acts as if it is also preaching to you in that moment. I love it.”

“The reflections are mine... the ideas and research is mine... I might ask a question or two and gain help with order and flow... but the sermon drafts are mine.”
