A Podcast is an audio file containing music, talk or both. Authors, singers and other audio content makers have leveraged the podcast platform for career and missional impact, and pastors are doing this too. Churches can host these files on their own websites, or other host sites like iTunes.com, Stitcher.com, SermonAudio.com, and the like. Consumers access these files through a media player like a computer or a smart phone (like an Apple iPhone or Google Android phone). ReSermon can create a podcast platform for your church, and regularly mix down the content with introduction and closure music, announcements, and appeals for donations. 
American Sign Language (ASL) is the predominant sign language of deaf communities in the United States and Canada. In the fall of 2015, ReSermon will offer ASL translation as a bottom-right insert to video files. 
Communication Access Real-Time Translation (CART), goes by a few names,  including Open Captioning, Real-Time Stenography, or Real-Time Captioning. Court stenographers use CART to convert speech to text, and is commonly applied to news broadcasts. The service is helpful for the deaf, hard of hearing, and people whose second language is English. (ESOL). Remote CART is done with the trained operator at a remote location. A voice connection such as a telephone, cellphone, or computer microphone is used to send the voice to the operator, and the real-time text is transmitted back over a modem, Internet, or other data connection.
RECORD
You record your sermon and transfer the file to ReSermon.com. 
We will walk you through the file transfer process.
TRANSCRIBE
ReSermon transcribes and edits your sermon into a readable, polished manuscript according to Chicago Manual of Style. 
Minus the um's, uh's and normal speech clutter, it is still your voice, still your sermon.
REPURPOSE
ReSermon prepares five blog posts between 300-500 words from your sermon.  
Before they are distributed, you can refine/edit these blog posts to taste.
SCHEDULE
After your approval, ReSermon schedules these blogs to post on certain days, usually one per day, Monday through Friday. 
Or, you can schedule them. Your call.
PUSH
ReSermon "pushes" the blog post out to your readership (usually church members and friends). Then your readership shares the post on their favorite social media platforms. 
We can talk about some strategies to help coordinate this team effort.
Because God guarantees that his preached Word is not coming back void.
Picture
Therefore, sow liberally. 
"....so shall my word be that goes out from my mouth; it shall not return to me empty, but it shall accomplish that which I purpose, and shall succeed in the thing for which I sent it." (Isaiah 55:11). 
You faithfully preach the word in person on Sunday mornings, but why stop there when together we can distribute it across the world? 
Your sermon becomes searchable and your teaching is more accessible.
Picture
Jim: "Pastor, my wife and I need to focus on finances. Can we meet with you next week?"

You, OPTION A:  Meet with them and start from scratch with your presentation on biblical money management 101.

You, OPTION B: "Jim, I'd love to. Let's meet on Tuesday. But first, go to the church blog and search my sermons for "biblical money management" and you'll come up with two sermons I preached in 2012 and a few more in, I think, 2010. Maybe it was 2011. In any event, read that material and we'll have a much better and informed conversation when we meet on Tuesday."
Because you care about the deaf and hard of hearing.
Picture
Transcription and repurposing empowers the deaf and hard of hearing adults and children in your community. Providing access to your preached Word to the deaf and hard of hearing is a key strategy in reaching this oft-overlooked demographic. 
Because you care for the hospitalized, those in hospice, the home bound and the incarcerated.
According to a 2011 Wall Street Journal article, a study showed positive spiritual guidance and discussion can help improve a patient's medical outcome. Nothing more forcefully proves "we still care" than a personal visit to the home bound, infirm, or incarcerated. Caring for both the body and soul is critical, and ReSermon.com can help by sharing the love of the preached Word of God. 
Because Jesus died for this guy, too, and the millions of retiring baby boomers who might have lived a little too hard.
Picture
Today, those Apple Scruffs, Dead Heads, and Led-Heads are managing tinnitus, a constant ringing in the ears often caused by continued exposure to high decibels. Sermon repurposing helps reach the baby boomers in your congregation whose  hearing is deteriorating like no previous generation in history.
TEACHING PASTOR
For the teacher who wants his labor to multiply, ReSermon.com repurposes your sermon into blog posts, opinion/editorials, social media posts, and even book manuscripts. 
STRATEGY: 
  1. Sunday: Preach. 
  2. Monday: Post your transcribed sermon.
  3. Tuesday-Friday: Publish blog posts coupled with daily social media pushes on leading platforms like Facebook, Twitter, Linked IN, and more. 
  4. Encourage the church to follow you on these platforms each week, and share with their friends and family. Just how far could the preached Word go in a year?
YOUTH PASTOR
Some of your kids are mature, some are babes, and some are lost and looking for bearings in all the wrong places, virtual and otherwise. Almost all of them, however, have smart phones and sermon repurposing is a key to reach out and remain connected to young adults and their friends. ReSermon.com helps you stay connected with your kids and, with enough planning, can even be a platform by which you empower the more mature believers to evangelize and disciple the young and the lost.
STRATEGY: 
  1. Sunday: Preach to morning youth group. 
  2. Monday: Post your transcribed sermon, highlighting some of the children's best questions.
  3. Tuesday +: Post short blog posts daily and leave your blog's comment section open. Every discussion thread could be coded to include a conspicuous button that reads, "I need to talk" in order to catch young people at their moment of need. 
  4. Visit your blog forum on your smart phone frequently to respond to posts and provoke deeper discussion. 
SUNDAY SCHOOL TEACHERS
Your Sunday school attendants are already demonstrating a large measure of interest and commitment to your teaching by bothering to show up. Does this mean that they are looking for a seminary-level education? Sermon.com helps you minister to both audiences by stoking further discussion through the week, and thereby equipping the saints at a better, deeper level. Plus, attendants who miss a Sunday because of illness or vacation can keep in touch and/or catch up with ease.
STRATEGY: 
  1. Sunday: Teach Sunday school. 
  2. Monday: Post your transcribed teaching Monday, along with any Q/A (often some of the richest material).  
  3. Tuesday +: Post more content at your blog through the week to help attendants share links among family members and coworkers, who can engage in online discussions with non-believers. 
  4. Carve out 15 minutes at the beginning of each subsequent Sunday for a debriefing opportunity to open new discussion threads.
MISSIONARIES
Missionaries have some of the greatest, most blog-worthy stories. While some serve in dangerous regions and therefore want to carefully manage how their repurposed messages are communicated (if at all), ReSermon.com can repurpose sermons and teaching for distribution through any of the thousands of global social media platforms via any documented language.
STRATEGY: Prior to Sunday, reach out to community organizations who might have an interest in your region of the world. For example, if you are a missionary to Cambodia and visiting a sponsor church in Washington, D.C., then spend a few weeks in advance to advertise your talk among Cambodian associations. Perhaps even contact the Cambodian embassy. Even if no representatives show up for your talk, find their websites, email addresses, and Twitter feeds, and make them aware of your teaching. 
  1. Sunday: Teach about your mission within a particular country or ethnicity. 
  2. Monday: Post your transcribed teaching along with any Q/A. 
  3. Tuesday +: Social media push to your target demographics around the world, and in your local community. 
PROFESSORS, TEACHERS
Lecturing for an hour Monday, Wednesday and Friday for 16 weeks can yield almost 500,000 words, or over 1,000 blog posts, or about 5 books. ReSermon.com helps academics and teachers fast-forward the publishing cycle. ReSermon.com can help professors and teachers publish every year, or even twice a year, for the rest of their lives. 
STRATEGY: 
  1. Record each lecture and let ReSermon.com prepare a revised transcript as a first draft for an eventual book. 
  2. ReSermon.com will prepare regular blog posts to help build a readership while you concurrently prepare the book manuscript. While you are preparing your manuscript, ReSermon.com's team of accomplished journalists, writers and publicists help prepare and push blog posts as well as repurpose material for placement in leading publications, both print and online.
Why hire ReSermon when you could hand this to your staff or volunteers? 
Picture
The short answer: We're better at it. 

ReSermon will repurpose your sermons better, cheaper and more punctually than your administrative assistant or volunteer, and we promise not to give you a Christmas surprise announcement, "Hey, I'm burned out, I need a break; find somebody else." 

ReSermon has the transcriptionists, professional writers and daily workflow to ensure that your sermon is repurposed on time, with excellence, and for a fraction of the time and cost required by your staff or volunteers.
