Their sermons come together from visits with congregations, elderly, ill, and sometimes death. Not sitting for any amount of hours thinking up a sermon. All have said their words come from the spirit within, their notes guide them, not written speeches, but experiences. Each waking hour their sermons evolve with personal everyday life, slightly tweeting in their mind to reach as many of their flock. Inspiring it’s better to give then receive. Then thankful that God guided them to inspire and comfort those in need
Quoting “Sometimes I have that great topic I prayed on for Wednesday or Sunday Morning or Evening” then an hour before service an event happens and God tells me I need to prepare something more inspirational. More than once at a last minute have needed to step in for emergency sermon. With a few written notes, and guidance from sermons within.
For any family wedding there are no notes, just words from their heart, for guidance into their new life, and a slight hint of as a family we protect our own.
Personally knowing all three they listen to a higher calling for their inspiration, not facts and figures from AI.
Hopefully you can speak with your pastor to voice your concerns on the quality you think they should focus on. I am sure they will listen to your concerns, and take into account your thoughts on how they could improve with AI, instead of their heart.
I don’t see many clergymen thinking AI will inspire over God, but maybe you could convince them you read they wasted 11 hours, that should be put to prepare better quality, instead of inspirational

You say that the three pastors in your family give great sermons. Do you find that to be the case with other pastors or are any of them boring?
And you avoided the question about a lawyer using AI. Would you rather have a poorly written closing argument written by an attorney or a great closing argument written by AI?
How about teachers? I have to say that the vast majority of my high school or college teachers were not that great and many were pretty bad. If AI could do a better job would you go with AI or take the boring lecturer?
