What if you could cut your sermon prep time and deliver stronger messages?
That’s exactly what Eric Smith, a church planter and pastor, set out to do when he created SermonDone—an AI-powered sermon assistant built specifically for pastors.
I sat down with Eric on the podcast to unpack his story, his tool, and how it’s helping pastors like you save hours each week without sacrificing theological depth or personal style.
