How sermon transcription impacts your pastoral counseling

.​John and Susan share with Pastor Steve one morning after church that they need counseling. Steve wants to schedule a meeting with them later that week but he wants them to dive into some material he already preached upon this year and last. 

Or, he tries to remember, was it in the year before? 

No matter, because Steve’s sermons are transcribed and published at his church blog.

“Look up ‘marriage’ and ‘Cassie’ in the search windows of the church blog,” Steve says, “because the messages I want you to review include some stories I shared about me and Cassie and some of the challenges we went through.” 

This has a few big benefits: 
  1. The marriage “counseling” begins today, not Thursday. John and Susan don’t have to wait until Thursday to get started on their marriage counseling appointment. In fact, they’ve been given explicit homework. Why let them focus on more fighting Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday when they can be applying that time toward growth? 
  2. John and Susan are “doing” the counseling. They are actively working on their problem, rather than just passively waiting for the professional to fix this for them. 

Because Steve’s sermon archive is transcribed and published, John and Susan might find the breakthrough they need, transforming Thursday’s meeting from less of a counseling appointment to more of a celebration appointment.

How sermon transcription helps your staff

Roger is working on material for Wednesday night’s youth ministry and wants to know how Pastor Steve would handle a sensitive subject. Steve, however, is knee-deep preparing for a funeral and won’t be available until much later in the week.

No problem, because Roger can just go to the church’s website where Steve’s transcribed sermon archives have been posted and tagged for easy reference. Not only is Steve’s archived sermons a huge help to Roger, but sunday school teachers, committee members, and ministry leaders now have access to Steve’s teaching. 

Sermon transcription has a few other key benefits for your staff and colleagues. If these leaders are presently treating the pastor or his assistant as their de facto librarians, sermon transcription now makes this a thing of the past, or at least greatly reduces the burden. 
​
Transcription makes your entire sermon archive available for optimum access for your staff and church leadership.
