the idea
every sunday, someone in a church is manually searching for bible verses while a preacher speaks. kerygma makes that person unnecessary.
the problem is simple and old. a preacher is mid-sermon, references a verse, and somewhere backstage someone is scrambling to find it and get it on screen before the moment passes. it's reactive, it's slow, and it pulls focus away from the message itself. i saw the gap and thought: what if the system just listened?
that question became kerygma.
how it works
kerygma listens to the sermon using the web speech api, processes the audio in real time, and uses the gemini api to detect when a bible verse is being referenced. the moment it catches one, it pulls the full scripture and projects it to the screen. completely hands-off. the preacher just preaches.
no operator needed. no lag. no missed verses. the whole experience is designed to be invisible until it's exactly needed, and then it just works.
built with next.js, styled to feel clean and focused in a live worship environment.
where it stands
two churches are currently being onboarded. it's early, it's real, and it's moving. balancing that alongside school isn't the easiest thing i've done, but it's the kind of problem you figure out as you go.
kerygma is one of those projects that reminds me why i build things. it solves something specific, it works quietly in the background, and when it does its job, nobody notices it at all. that's exactly the point.
let's build something worth talking about
