Display your SermonAudio sermons directly on your church website, using the familiar sermon layout and filters your visitors already know. The Herald integration brings your SermonAudio library into your website’s sermon page and lets you choose which sermons appear.
This integration is included at no additional cost for Church Plant Media customers using Herald.
What It Does
Displays SermonAudio sermons on your website: Visitors can browse your sermons using your website’s existing layout and filters.
Gives you control over visibility: Display your entire SermonAudio library or select individual sermons to show.
Publishes new Herald sermons to SermonAudio: Once connected, new sermons you create in Herald automatically publish to SermonAudio.
Works with Blocks: Feature sermons on your homepage and other pages using sermon Blocks.
Helps sermon pages load faster: Herald saves sermon information locally so your website can display it quickly.
Things to Know
You choose which SermonAudio sermons appear.
When enabling the integration, you can display all your existing SermonAudio sermons or keep them hidden and choose individual sermons to make visible. If the same sermons already exist in Herald, starting with your SermonAudio library hidden can help prevent duplicate listings on your website.
Existing Herald sermons require a manual push.
Sermons already in Herald before you enable the integration do not automatically publish to SermonAudio. To send one, open the three-dot menu beside that sermon and select Push to SermonAudio. Existing sermons must be sent individually.
SermonAudio changes appear through automatic refreshes.
Changes made in SermonAudio are brought into Herald during background refreshes. The refresh process runs every hour, with websites handled in a queue. This means your website may not refresh every hour, and changes can take longer than an hour to appear.
Some settings stay in Herald.
Header images, featured images, and “current series” settings are stored only in Herald. SermonAudio does not support these Herald-specific features, so they do not transfer to SermonAudio.
Translated sermons are supported.
The integration supports SermonAudio Global Sermons. Available translations can be accessed through a language dropdown on your website.
SermonAudio sermons are not available in church mobile apps.
At this time, SermonAudio sermons appear on your website through this integration, but not in your church’s mobile app.
