I make a bunch of random documents. For myself, sometimes the best thing to do is make a worksheet or larger document (especially for sermon research). Many times, I end up posting a picture on instagram or talk about them on some other platform. I’ll upload certain ones here, so feel free to download and use.

While I am totally cool sharing these things, my hope is that they are accomplishing two goals. The first, that it might save you a little bit of time in your own research, many of these things are just about getting it on paper so I can see the broader picture. No real original thought or work here. The second is so that you can see how I have found ways to hack sermon preparation, make ministry easier, or streamline a workflow for myself. Then you can start creating your own documents along these lines for your ministry and sculpt them to meet your immediate needs.

Random Resources

Fruits of the Spirit root usage list

I created this while preparing for a sermon series on the fruits of the spirit. It has the BDAG definition, the Strongs definition, and every occurrence of the lexeme (grammatical family) in the New Testament. I used Accordance Bible to make this list for myself.

How I make Templates in Trello

Here’s a video about how I use Trello to make templates for different types of ministry. They are great for better repeatable processes. You can find all my Trello related content at revchadbrooks.com/trello.
