    TRAILER: The Story of SermonAudio
    Oct 8 2025
    Discover the remarkable journey of how SermonAudio began with a young boy in the 1980s who fell asleep each night listening to cassette tapes of preaching—a simple beginning that would, by God's providence, grow into a global platform reaching millions. This film captures the vision, challenges, and moments of faith that shaped the mission: the preservation and propagation of preaching. Along the way came many trials and turning points, closed doors that became new directions, cyberattacks that threatened to undo the work, and seasons of deep discouragement met by unmistakable provision. From unexpected gifts that made The Vault possible to the surprising arrival of advanced hardware and expertise at just the right time, the story is filled with evidence of divine help at every step. This is not the story of a website but of a work far greater. The story is a testimony to the faithfulness of God who has ensured that the voice of preaching will not be silenced, and that its witness will reach the nations until the end of the age.

  • O! Canada

    O! Canada
    Aug 28 2025
    We are building our next Vault site in Canada. The cluster is online and operational, but it's just the first step. Next step will be to install a fully replicated copy of the sermon library in this new Canadian location. WHY ARE WE DOING THIS? First, we believe in preaching. Second, we believe we need to protect preaching. Third, the enemy's weapon of choice is deception to keep the nations in darkness. Fourth, our weapon is the propagation of truth via sound preaching. Fifth, we must pray and keep our powder dry. In other words, we need to protect preaching — at all cost. REDUNDANCY. REDUNDANCY. REDUNDANCY. We repeat ourselves in order to be heard. Aristotle once observed, "We are what we repeatedly do. Excellence, then, is not an act, but a habit." The Bible of course has a lot to say about repetition — or reminders. "This do in remembrance of me." 1 Cor 11:24. The name of the game with datacenters is redundancy. This is why we are in Canada — arctic-grade storage for the permanent preservation of sound preaching! Support us here: sermonaudio.com/vault

  • Let's Talk About AI

    Let's Talk About AI
    Jun 28 2025
    Artificial Intelligence is all the rage and with such a powerful tool come strong benefits and risks. In this VLOG we take a closer look at AI and seek to dispel some of the mysteries that surround it. We also make application with another AI found in the Bible, in the book of Joshua, and seek to learn the lesson of prayerfulness and dependence on God despite the "superpower status" that AI tools may promise to give us.

  • The House of John Knox

    The House of John Knox
    Jun 3 2025
    We visited the house of John Knox to celebrate something historic. The complete works of John Knox are available for the first time in the audiobook format! Everyone knows the name John Knox, but has anyone actually listened to his sermons? We are giving voice to these great treasures, and they can now be freely heard for the first time since the days of Knox himself. We need a recovery of powerful preaching. In the words of Knox himself, the church is the stomach of the nation. It is where all ailments and diseases begin—spreading throughout the body. Fix the pulpit, and you'll fix the nation.

    Spring Update 2025
    Apr 24 2025
    This VLOG takes us through some of the development progress for both software and hardware with The Vault. We are finally able to see what Global Sermons will look like for the end-user. Webcasting is getting a massive architectural overhaul. We're expanding our primary storage. And key improvement has been made to our video-on-demand system. A final word is included on the importance of keeping our focus and remembering the REASON why we go through the trouble of building infrastructure. It is about the payload -- the preached word.

  • What Is Truth?

    What Is Truth?
    Jan 20 2025
    We're living in a world that is sinking in disinformation, deepfakes, and outright deception. We cannot tell what is true and what is artificial anymore. In the midst of this sea of lies, it seems that more than ever there is a desire to find that which is true. In an interview, Elon Musk said: "I care a lot about the truth of things and trying to understand the truth of things. I think that's important. If you're going to come up with some solution, then the truth is really, really important." People today are asking the same question that a Roman governor once asked over 2,000 years ago, "What is truth?" Jesus Christ declared in John 14:6, "I AM THE WAY, the TRUTH, and the LIFE, no man cometh unto the Father but by me." We have re-launched our Gospel of John Project for 2025 in partnership with the Trinitarian Bible Society and are seeking to reach 12 cities in 12 months. Each month we will mail out an attractive Gospel of John booklet to at least 10,000 homes -- until we reach 120,000 homes by the end of the year.

  • Walking on Water

    Walking on Water
    Dec 26 2024
    As we close out 2024, we reflect on a big year of advances and changes. In many ways, it feels as though we've been walking on water for the past 24 years, endeavoring to keep our eyes on the Lord. What we are doing, humanly speaking, is impossible for a company of our size. Yet, as we continue to move forward and walk on the waters of impossibility, my prayer is that we will not, like Peter, be overtaken by the fear of unbelief, or should I say, disbelief that we could or even should have as our goal something as audacious as "every sermon in every language." If we're serious about this objective, it will require of us to get out of our comfort zone, get out of the boat, and take the necessary steps of faith to be where the Lord is in His mission throughout the world.
