The pages they actually preached from.

Not a workbook. Not a summary. Two complete sermon manuscripts from John Mark Comer and Jon Tyson's notes and the 59 slides he built from them, scanned exactly as they went into the pulpit, with every seam, movement and story cue labelled so you can see how a sermon is built by people who build one every week.

Jon Tyson's sermon notes on Genesis 3
01Why a manuscript

The course teaches the framework. The pages show it carrying a real sermon.

Most preaching books stop at principles. Here you watch two preachers apply them to a hard text, with the parts that didn't make the cut still visible.

Four documents, 101 pages

John Mark's two full manuscripts (2 Corinthians 10 and Mark 9). Jon's notes on Genesis 3 and the slide deck he built from them, page for page.

Two legends

One for each man's system: what the colours mean, what the labels mean, why a quote is underlined and a story is highlighted.

Five exercises

Take one of your own sermons and mark it the same way. Find the seams. Count the stories. See how much of the page is actually the point.

02Read three pages with us

What to notice, and why it is there.

Jon Tyson's notes on Genesis 3, page 2, with coloured headings and highlights
Jon Tyson · Genesis 3 · page 2

A page built to be preached, not read.

Jon doesn't write sentences for Sunday. He writes cues. Every colour on this page tells him what to do with his voice and his body when he gets there.

  1. 1
    Green: a story to tell

    Not the story itself. Six words that put him back in the room. He tells it from memory, which is why it lands.

  2. 2
    Yellow: the line that matters

    One sentence per movement is highlighted. If the sermon runs long, these survive and everything else goes.

  3. 3
    Blue: the objection

    The secular listener gets named and quoted fairly before Jon answers. The cyan highlight is the exact phrase he will say in their voice.

  4. 4
    Underlined: the source

    Pascal, Rorty, James K.A. Smith. Underlined means read it word for word and say who said it.

Where a sermon turns.

John Mark writes full sentences, then labels the architecture. The labels are what Foundations teaches: hinges, seams, movements. Here they are on a page that was actually preached.

  1. 1
    Highlight: the pull quote

    Every quotation he will read aloud is yellow. Everything not highlighted he may paraphrase or skip.

  2. 2
    (Pic 4) (Pic 5) (Pic 6)

    Slide cues inline with the text, so the words and the screen never drift apart. Nothing is left to memory.

  3. 3
    Seam

    The sentence that carries the room from one movement to the next. He names it, writes it in full, and never improvises it.

  4. 4
    Movement 1

    The first of the sermon's three movements begins here, two pages in. Everything above it was the setup the text needed.

  5. 5
    Red: say this slowly

    The one claim the movement rests on, in red, in bold. The rest of the page exists so this sentence can land.

From the page to the screen.

The slide deck in the bonus is the one Jon built from these exact notes, so you can lay them side by side and see what made it onto the screen and what stayed in his mouth.

  1. 1
    Cyan: a frame to say out loud

    “Criminal court to a civil court.” A phrase, not a sentence. It becomes a slide. The explanation stays on the page.

  2. 2
    Red: the section title

    “Lies we still believe” is the spine of the back half. On the slides it becomes “Rebellion, Lies and the Sovereignty of Self.”

  3. 3
    Blue, four times

    Four lies, four blue lines, one slide each. Reading the page you can predict the deck.

  4. 4
    Yellow: a picture, not a point

    “Show photo of woman snorting likes.” The illustration is a cue to the tech team, not a paragraph. Watch how little text it takes.
