Worksheets, sermon notes, and ministry resources (AI-assisted) for teaching, discipleship, and church life.
This repository houses Organic Harvest Ministries’ sermon notes, handouts, and discipleship materials — built and managed by Eric Hepperle Designs. It’s organized so church leaders and volunteers can quickly find, update, or print resources for Sunday services, classes, or study groups.
Everything here stays human-readable and portable — Markdown for editing, HTML for preview, and PDF for printing.
| Folder / Path | Description |
|---|---|
_pix/ |
Logos, screenshots, and other static visuals used across documents or READMEs. |
drafts/ |
Work‑in‑progress handouts, sermons, and church documents. Draft filenames include date, type (HANDOUT, SERMON, etc.), and a short title. |
output/ |
Final HTML/PDF exports — print‑ready or shareable files. Usually paired with a matching draft or topic version. |
topics/ |
Organized, canonical content grouped by teaching theme (e.g., Covenant, Music, Biblical Prophecy). Each topic folder acts as the main source of truth. |
refs/ |
Repo documentation and guides: naming rules, export how‑tos, style guide, roadmap, templates overview, and workflow explanations. |
templates/ |
Base layouts for new content — use these to start new handouts or sermon outlines. |
tools/ |
Optional scripts and utilities that automate exports or simplify file management. |
style.css |
Shared visual styling for exported HTML handouts. |
desktop.ini |
Windows icon/metadata file (safe to ignore when cloning). |
The topics/ directory is the primary way to navigate teaching content. Each subfolder represents a coherent theme with one or more linked handouts or outlines.
| Topic Folder | Example Contents |
|---|---|
Biblical Covenant/ |
Church document, sermon, and teaching outline for covenant (e.g., RevisedCovenant, CovenantPeopleKindomAssignment, WhyCovenantMatters). |
Biblical Time/ |
Handouts related to prophetic or biblical time (e.g., BiblicalPropheticTime). |
Decrees/ |
Decree‑oriented materials such as marriage decrees and covenantal declarations. |
Foolish Cross/ |
Handouts focused on "Foolishness of the Cross" and related teaching. |
Jesus Genealogy Prophecy/ |
Jesus' genealogy and prophecy handouts, including corrected/updated versions. |
Matthew's Kingdom Parables/ |
Materials on Matthew's kingdom parables (e.g., "Barstools to Kingdom Tools", "Kingdom Ambassador Parables"). |
Music/ |
Music‑related worksheets (chord progressions, practice sheets) and supporting prompt notes. |
Unsorted Lessons/ |
Holding area for lessons not yet assigned to a primary topic folder. |
When promoting a draft to "canonical," move or copy it under the appropriate topics/<Topic Name>/ folder so that topic folders remain the source of truth.
These folders support the production workflow for all ministry content in this repository.
