Kept Word

I have hidden your word in my heart.Psalm 119:11

Kept Word Chat · For your whole church

Every sermon, searchable. Every question, answered in your pastor's words.

Years of faithful preaching are sitting on YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, podcasts, or sermon files you already have—hard to find and easy to forget. We transcribe and organize your whole sermon library, then add a friendly chat bubble to your church website. Anyone can ask a question and get a plain-language answer drawn only from your pastor's sermons, with links to the exact moment.

How it works

Three simple steps

About 10 minutes of your time; we do the rest.

  1. 1. Share your sermons

    YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, podcasts, or files you already have—MP3 or video on your website, Dropbox, or Google Drive. Send us the links or files and we get started.

  2. 2. We build your library

    We transcribe, check speakers, and index your sermons, starting with your 25 most recent, then style the chat to match your site. Answers link to the exact moment on YouTube or Vimeo; audio-only sermons get a timestamp with a link to the file or podcast page.

  3. 3. Your congregation starts asking

    Members and visitors find answers any time. New sermons are added every week.

See it in action

Ask a question. Get your pastor's words, with the exact moments.

Tested on a real church's library of nearly 200 sermons. Here is the kind of answer it gives on our live demo for Lanternfield Community Church, a fictional church with a small library of sample sermons. One question pulls together a story the pastor returns to across a whole sermon, and links to each moment.

Your sermons stay yours

  • Your church owns its sermons and transcripts. We use them only for your church, and if you leave, you can take a copy of your transcripts with you.
  • No cookies and no tracking, and we never sell your data. The AI company that writes the answers doesn’t train on what we send it.
  • Visitors’ questions aren’t saved, unless someone rates an answer with a thumbs up or down.

Let's talk about your sermon library

Send a note with where your sermons live—YouTube, Facebook, Vimeo, a podcast, or files you already have—and we'll show you what Kept Word Chat can do with them.

My wife bought a sweatshirt that said ‘Make Heaven Crowded.’ It has sat with me ever since. I set out to see what I could do with my own church. Now I want to see what I can do with yours to fulfill that mission.
