How this site is made

sermons.wilsonpruitt.com is a static Quartz site fed by a sync script that copies sermons — and only sermons, not board emails, funerals, or pastoral notes — out of the author’s private note vault. The publish rule requires type: sermon, a date on or before today, and a real written body (a bare lectionary citation with no sermon prose is excluded). The text on this site is exactly what was synced from the vault; nothing here is drafted or edited by a machine.
