Free Claude files for church staff

Our team uses Claude, the AI made by Anthropic, to help draft church posts, follow-up texts and web pages. These are the instruction files behind that work. Add one to a Claude project, and Claude follows the same rules we do.

A person reads every draft

Claude helps with the first draft. A person on your team reads every word before it goes out, and your pastor reads anything that speaks for your church's beliefs. Claude never replaces your pastor's voice or care for people.

Keep guests' names, phone numbers and prayer requests out of every AI chat. The files use blanks like [First name] instead.

sound-human-rules.md is our own church version of writing rules inspired by Hardik Pandya's Stop Slop (hvpandya.com). Claude is made by Anthropic. Big Splash isn't affiliated with Anthropic.
