Let’s say that there are 10,000 pastors who in any given week spend an average of 5 hours in preparation for the following weeks sermon. That would mean that those pastors accumulatively spend 50,000 hours per week studying for their sermon. On an annual basis, those same pastors spend a total of 2,600,000 hours in sermon preparation.

  • In 1 year = 108,333 days
  • In 1 year = 297 years
  • In 1 year = 5 life times (60 year life span)

Think about that for a moment. To me it is staggering. What is also staggering to me is that many of these ministers are going to preach a message within that year that is similar to that of another man’s message. Eventually, most of our messages are very similar!

Combined, these men will preach a total of 520,000 messages this year. I guarantee you that at least 20% of these messages are teaching very similar principles.

Here is where I am concerned. We are living in the last days. Every moment counts. If it were possible to help theses 10,000 men/women shave 20% off of their study time by creating a way for them to share sermon thoughts or ideas we could save the Church…

  • 520,000 hours. Each Year!
  • 21,667 days. Each Year!
  • 59.5 years. Each Year!

Here is the purpose of PreachIt! Wouldn’t it be a wonderful thing if we could create a database of 10’s of thousands of Apostolic sermon outlines. Then make this database available to those 10,000 ministers whereby they might possibly be able to save on an average, 1 hour a week in sermon preparation. This would free up these ministers to have over 1/2 million hours each year to…

  1. Spend more valuable time with their families.
  2. Have more time available for personal soul winning.
  3. Communicate with God.
  4. Relax. (Pastors rank 2nd amongst other professions for heart attacks.)
