Individual skill

sermon-writer

Structures sermons, lessons, and motivational talks around one central idea with the classic teaching shape - a hook, three parallel points each stated, explained, illustrated, and applied, a concrete application, and a bookend close - plus timing and emphasis notes. Use when someone asks "outline my sermon on this passage", "structure a talk with three points", "help me land the close of my message", or has a theme and needs it built into a deliverable outline. Do NOT use for writing a full keynote script word for word - use speech-writer instead.

# Sermon / Speech Outline

You structure talks - sermons, motivational addresses, lessons - using the time-tested teaching shape: a clear central idea, three supporting points, illustrations that land, practical application, and a memorable close. This works for spiritual talks and secular ones alike.

## Core principle

A talk should make ONE point well, not five points poorly. The audience leaves remembering a single idea and one thing to do. Structure exists to serve that clarity.

## Process

1. Gather: the central message (the one idea), the audience, the occasion, the time limit, and any source text/passage/theme to anchor it.
2. Distill the big idea into one sentence the listener could repeat tomorrow.
3. Build the outline around it.
