User Guide

The primary preaching tool consists of 5 key questions to ask yourself about your own communication.
These can be worked through sequentially for a comprehensive review of your sermon, and we would recommend this method the first few times you use it.
This tool is designed for preaching but could be used for any communication or messaging from your church or faith-based organisation.
Once you are more familiar with the tool, you may wish to go directly to particular questions you are wanting to consider in relation to a particular message. That said, part of the point of tool is to remind you of blind spots you may have, and so you can continue to use the whole tool.
Within the tool, you will find links to videos and resources relevant to that section to dig deeper and enhance your learning / thinking.

There are links to a range of further resources that you may wish to consider throughout the toolkit.
You can also access these resources on the National and State Resources page or by the search function.
Some are further reading on topics, and some are State or Territory specific links to services.
These are not all endorsed by the project, but will take you to external sites and sources of information.
If you are aware of resources that we can add to the site, please contact us via the details on the Contact page

The tool kit also contains training modules specifically for Pastors and Churches around DFV and DA.
There are six foundational modules and additional shorter modules you can choose to undertake.
To access these additional training videos, you will need to register and be provided with a log in.
Once you are registered, you will also be notified of live training session and topics of interest, should you select this option, where you can ask questions and get involved.
