Kept Word Chat

For pastors & church leaders

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.

  • New sermons added weekly
  • No software to learn
  • 30-day free trial
Illustrative example. Your colors, fonts, and sermons.

Built for churches

Why churches choose Kept Word Chat

Built for small and mid-size churches without tech staff.

Done for you, by a real person

We clean up and index years of sermons and handle the weekly updates. Nothing to install, nothing to learn.

Accurate speaker credit

Every sermon is credited to the right preacher across the years, including guest speakers.

Kid-friendly answers

A simple mode that explains your pastor's teaching in words children and families can understand.

Honest by design

Answers come only from your sermons. If it can't find something, it says so. It never makes things up.

Looks like your website

Matches your colors and fonts on phones and computers. Optional full-page view with video player and browsing by series or book of the Bible.

One simple bundle

Add weekly study guides for men, women, and youth, plus sermon clips, captions, and social posts.

How it works

Three simple steps

No extra work for your staff.

  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 every sermon, 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.
