Publish, Protect& Share Your Ministry.
PulpitSmith is the free platform for pastors, preachers, Bible teachers, and ministry leaders — publish sermons, devotionals, and prayers, protect your teaching from AI training, and reach your congregation online. Free forever to start.
A Permanent Home for
Every Message
You’ve Preached
PulpitSmith is Author Vault’s dedicated platform for pastors, preachers, evangelists, Bible teachers, and ministry leaders of every tradition. It’s where your sermons, devotionals, prayers, and teachings live safely and are shared faithfully — reaching far beyond the four walls of your church.
No more sermons lost in a filing cabinet. No more teachings that only your Sunday morning congregation ever hears. PulpitSmith gives your ministry a permanent, beautifully presented, and shareable home — with your name on every page, your content protected from AI training, and your voice preserved forever.
A lifetime of preaching is a lifetime of wisdom. Every sermon you’ve delivered deserves to be preserved, shared, and heard — long after it was first spoken.
Tools Built for
Ministry, Not Technology
PulpitSmith removes every technical barrier between your message and your congregation — so you focus on the ministry, not the platform.
The unified editor at /create/ lets you build each sermon or devotional your way — add a content type, scripture reference, rich text, audio file, cover image, and series. Only the tools your content needs.
Attach sermon recordings — MP3, WAV, AAC, or FLAC — directly to each post. Your congregation can listen to every message on any device, at any time. A built-in audio player is on every page.
Publish daily devotionals, intercessory prayers, and Bible study materials alongside your sermons. Build a rich spiritual library your church community can return to again and again.
Add the Bible passage or verse that anchors each sermon directly to the post. Every published piece shows the scripture reference prominently — making your library searchable by passage.
Share any sermon to Facebook, X, WhatsApp, Gmail, Messenger, and more — both the post and the audio file separately. Reach your congregation and the wider body of Christ directly from your dashboard.
Your sermons and teachings are never used to train AI models. 256-bit encryption, triple-redundant backups, and a strict no-AI-training policy. Your ministry content belongs entirely to you — permanently.
Add Only the Tools

Daily or weekly devotionals for your congregation. Short, focused spiritual readings your community can subscribe to, return to, and share with friends and family from their phones.
Written prayers, intercessory lists, and liturgical content. Archive your prayer ministry and make it available to your congregation and the wider body of Christ — 24/7 on any device.
“Go into all the world and preach the gospel to all creation.”
If You Lead Ministry,
You Belong Here
Archive every Sunday message and build a permanent sermon library your congregation can access from anywhere — on any device, at any time, long after the service ends.
Publish study materials, commentary, and multi-week teaching series. Give your students a resource they can revisit, share, and build on for years to come.
Extend your reach beyond each crusade or outreach event. Every published message continues to work long after the altar call is over — reaching new audiences every day.
Build a devotional library for your prayer team, women’s ministry, men’s group, or youth congregation — available 24/7 from their phones without any app to install.
“I’ve been preaching for over twenty years. PulpitSmith is the first platform that treats every sermon as the gift it is — not just a recording that gets lost after Sunday, or content that feeds an AI.”
