NOTE:
Since Youtube and ChatGPT are transcribing for us (and following some of these language conventions themselves already), we can relax our focus on these rules and just proofread so that the transcript makes sense to readers. In other words, don’t worry about following the conventions any more → worry about formatting every sermon page consistently.

NOTE: Examples of how the transcriber will type Pastor’s original words are given in the form: Eg. “[original words]” → “[transcribed text]”

Transcription Conventions
*Please don’t be overwhelmed: these ‘rules’ are not to achieve perfect punctuation, but rather to help the reader (as much as possible) to understand exactly what Pastor is saying. Remember that the reader may never have heard Pastor preach before.
