Normally, that’d take hours, right? With AI for ministry tools like NotebookLM, you can use something called “prompts” to sort through all that in seconds. Prompts are just simple questions or directions you give the AI, like “Find me verses about hope” or “Give me a three-point sermon outline on forgiveness.” Boom—done! You’ll have what you need without flipping through a single page.

That way, when you ask the AI to pull something together—like a Bible study on prayer or a report on outreach ideas—it’s got everything it needs to work its magic. A little setup goes a long way, and we’ll show you how to keep it flexible so you’re not stuck in some rigid system.
