    August 29, 2008 -- A new sermon illustration supplement can be downloaded.  The Access interface is also improved.

    September 2007 -- Revamped interface for Access users and a way to run it even if you don't own Access !
                                  (and a step-by-step plan for downloading a mega-database)   Here is the step-by-step for new SID users.
     

    Linux users!  Someone has figured out a way to use the SID version under Linux.  Go here for details.

      Information on updating your database  (more thorough advice is here)

    I need some help.  Not money, just technical advice; see my projects page.   To let me know what you think about the database, fill out the survey form. (If you want me to respond, you must include your email address because the form itself is anonymous)

    Welcome to the Kerux Sermon and Illustration Database, a collection of tens of thousands of sermons and sermon illustrations.  (Kerux) is Greek for Preacher and these files will be useful for those who preach the Word, though anyone can have them.  It is the same thing as the old Holwick Database - I am taking my name off to reflect the contributions so many others have made to this material.

    The database contains literally tens of thousands of  full-text sermons and sermon illustrations with titles, Bible references and other searchable and sortable data.  Think of it as a huge card file that can be searched in seconds.  It is also useful for storing your own sermons and illustrations.  The database has been compiled by Rev. David Holwick with help from pastors and programmers all around the world.  It is offered free of charge and is intended to be used for the glory of God.  It may not be sold, and may not be re-packaged without consent. 

    Getting started...

    Databases are like huge index card files.  The sets and supplements below are the index cards, and either Microsoft Access or SID are the "engines" or "front-end" that help you sort them.  Either version uses the same data of illustrations and sermons and can search, print or copy to your word processor the data you want.  The sets and supplements by themselves are useless to you.  If you do not have Microsoft Access (usually packaged with the Microsoft Office-Pro software suite), then use the Sermon and Illustration Database [S.I.D.] that is available for free below.  For more information on SID, go here...

    Here is a page that lists a step-by-step plan for putting the Kerux database together in the SID format.

    1. Download either the SID or Access installation files.  These files have the ".exe" extension and when you double-click on them they will set up a suggested directory on your hard-drive called c:\Program Files\Kerux Sermon Materials.  Both setup files will also offer to put an icon on your desktop.  They include no records yet (or only a few).

    2. Download some illustration or sermon sets and save them to your computer.  Unzip them with a program like WinZip (I include a link below) and put them in a hard-drive directory you can remember.

    3. Open your front-end (SID or Access).  With SID you click the "Import" button and browse to find and select your data set; it will be added to the database.  Repeat as necessary for each set.  With Access, click the "Update the Database" button on the Intro page and find and select your data set, and repeat as necessary.  To find out how many illustrations and sermons you have in your database, with Access you go to the illustration or sermon form and look at the number in the lower left corner.  For SID, just do a blank search on the opening page (don't enter any search words, just click the "Run Search" button) and you'll be told how many records it found; repeat for both sermons and illustrations.

    4. After you have added all the sets, download and unzip the supplements.  These are newer illustrations or have updated data.  Be careful not to update your existing records with an older supplement, or you will go backwards!  The date of each set/supplement is included on this page.  [Holiday supplements duplicate a portion of what is in other supplements and don't need to be part of a mega-database construction]

    5. Add your own illustrations and sermons, or modify ones in the database.  Be sure and use the proper Bible abbreviations so they will show up in searches.  It is no exaggeration to say there is a wealth of material here.


    History of new material and special messages:

    Aug 29, 2008.  New illustration supplement is online.  It fixes many duplicate or obsolete illustrations.  Also, an updated Access front-end is available.
                            It fixes some glitches with searching for numbers.
    Mar 28, 2008.  Installation glitches in sermon sets 9 and 16 are now fixed, thanks to Garth Hutchinson.
    Feb 7, 2008.  My project page (below) bears some fruit - Marvin in North Carolina shares how to use the database under Linux.
    Jan 24, 2008.  A new webpage asks for help with
    future projects, like versions of the database for Macs and Linux.
    Jan 24, 2008.  Glitches in the Access Combo update (and Classic Restore) are fixed now so your old "Intro pop-up" forms are replaced with the correct one.
    Jan 6, 2008.  Over 2,000 duplicate sermons were removed from the sermon sets, so some of the files are smaller now.
                           Minor updates were done on Jan 7 as well, and the Access forms have a few minor tweaks in the Jan2008 version.
    Jan 1, 2008.  All illustration and sermon sets and supplements are updated to this date, with year-end supplements for 2007.
    Dec 18, 2007.  New book-style printing for sermons in the Kerux Access database.  Also, an Accumulate button glitch is fixed.
    Nov 29, 2007.  Print feature for Access forms had glitches, but there is now a supplement to fix them.  Use the
    Kerux_Access_forms_update_Nov2007.zip file below.
    Sept 7, 2007.  Access has a cleaner interface that is similar to SID, but with the same illustration / sermon forms.  In addition, non-Access owners can download a
    Run-Time version that allows them to use any of these Access files!  And a new illustration supplement is online.  And a new visual tour of Access is online.
    June 1, 2007.  Sermon set #11 is repaired.
    Apr 21, 2007.  Access users have an update that adds features to the Sermons table (and fixes some glitches in the forms)
    Apr 12, 2007.  A major update for Access users.  (Does not affect SID users)
    Jan 27, 2007.  Yet another glitch is corrected for Access forms.
    Jan 25, 2007.  Two glitches are fixed in the Forms Update file.
    Jan 18, 2007.  The Access version is improved again - you can change the font within larger forms.
    Jan 4, 2007.  Sermon sets are consolidated and corrected.  The files did not match their contents for many months but no one noticed.
    Jan 3, 2007.  Complete supplements online of sermons and illustrations from 2006.  New update for Access version, with 1280x1024 forms.
    Oct 24, 2006.  Revision of major upgrade for SID.  Numbers are automatically entered so others (and you) can import your material.
    Oct 8, 2006.  Major upgrade for SID.  You can now export collections of illustrations/sermons that can be imported by others.  Make your own supplements!
    Jun 24, 2006. 
    Glitch in Kerux-Access "print" feature is fixed with a special supplement file in the section 1b below.  Existing versions online are updated.
    Oct 16, 2004.  I am revamping how supplements are done.  New records will be under "sets" and modified ones will be under "supplements."  Read descriptions carefully, and note that a supplement may be less recent than a regular set.  I keep some old supplements for the use of longtime users.
    Oct 13, 2004.  SID front-end put online.  Holwick material renamed to Kerux.  Major update of most material.
    Oct 13, 2004.  Access front-end is slightly modified - the Sermon List function adds Series, and a Ratings field is added.
    Mar 29, 2004.  Update for sermon Typist field available in Sermon Supplements below.
    Feb 17, 2004.  Minor fix in setup_Holwick_database_Jan2004.exe file - Accumulate and Clip buttons in 800x600 form are repaired.
                            If your version's Accumulate or Clip buttons don't work (800x600 illustration form) then
    download this fix.
                            Unzip it, then open your database and click the UPDATE button, browse to find this file, and it will automatically repair itself.
    Jan 8, 2004. 
    Major upload of new and updated material to new webspace at Globat.com.
    Oct 4, 2003.  Mini-database available in Access 2002 format.  Contains new beta-version of Comparison Form.
    Sept 24, 2002. New "List Titles" feature for Access 97 database.
    Nov 20, 2001. There is a glitch in version 5.0's sermon "accumulate" button. 5.1 fixes it, or you can fix it yourself.
     

    The Access 97 database is much-improved over the earliest versions. Fill in blanks, click a button, and sorted illustrations pop up one after another. Most find it easy to use. Setup file installs it automatically on your computer, along with a detailed help file that will show you how to tinker with the forms and programming.  (The help file must be in the same directory as the database.) This version has switchboard menus for 800x600 and 1024x768 resolutions. There are three versions:

    1. mini-version to check out the features
    2. installation version that creates a special directory and puts an icon on your desktop
    3. blank-database for those who want to update previous versions

    To check out the help file by itself, click here (110k, zipped). Comments and error reporting are always appreciated.

    A Note on Update Capabilities

    A series of buttons allows users to download special datasets which update the database records automatically. For updates to work properly you should have at least version 5.3 which has the Import button on the Intro pop-up screen - previous versions will not work properly. The help file has instructions on how to transfer your data tables from a version prior to 5.3 to the newest version. Many sermons and illustrations do not have complete topics or secondary Scriptures entered, but as I update these on my own database I will make a file with just those changes and put it on this page. You will download a much smaller file and your existing database will be brought completely up to date. I also include instructions on changes you will have to make on your end. Always back up your database before updating it. (see warning below for some helpful advice)

    Making a Major Update

    Every Access user of this database should have the version that includes the "Update the Database" button on the Intro PopUp screen.  (SID puts this on an icon called IMPORT)   This function works with a table called tblCommand in the supplement files table so your existing database (version 5.1 and up) can add the new sermons and illustrations automatically. It will also update your existing ones. The sets and supplements here are usually lacking three fields - the Rating field, any personal note field like "Date Used" and the "do_not_update" field - so your personal data will not be erased.  This also means you cannot just copy this material and paste it in your tables.

    Access users can manipulate the  tblCommand table to allow you to update several tables at a time.  But be careful - multiple large files will cause the error message "database is full."  This can happen even if you update the sets separately.  Your database is not really full, but your RAM memory is maxed out.  This is a serious error message because it can lead to corruption in your database.  Close the program, launch it again, and compact the database by going to the Menu Bar and clicking TOOLS, then DATABASE UTILITIES, then COMPACT THE DATABASE.  It is a good idea to compact it after each large supplement or set. 

    If you (Access users only) are trying to do a major update with an entire "Holwick's Illustrations" or "Sermons" table (not just one of these sets) you will probably have to use a Make Table Query to break up the table into smaller chunks, then compose a tblCommand that references each chunk.  The help file has an index entry for Make Table Queries that will show you how to do this.

    A few times a year I will update all the main data sets and this will make the incremental supplements redundant.  I have been grouping each year's changes in large supplements.  Be careful - any changes you have made to these illustrations or sermons will be overwritten.  Use the COMPARE feature to check out your database with the supplement.  Also, read the description of each file carefully.

    Warning    BACKUP    BACKUP    BACKUP

    Three times now I have wiped out my database.   It makes me thankful that I have put all this material on the internet, but I have always lost several weeks of work when this happens.  The warning to backup your database should be taken seriously.  In my opinion, there is only one practical way to do this - I recommend getting an external hard drive.  For around $100 you can get one that holds over 100 gigabytes.  They are fast, you can program them to do massive backups overnight, and you can store it in a different location so a fire or other disaster does not wipe out your backup, too.  "A prudent man sees danger and takes refuge, but the simple keep going and suffer for it."  Proverbs 22:3

    For those who are not prudent, I now offer a database recovery service.  If your database becomes corrupted and you cannot open it, burn the database onto a CD or DVD and mail it to me.  For $49 I'll recover it and send it back on another disk.  If I cannot recover it, you don't pay.  This service is for those who have accumulated a fair number of their own illustrations which they don't want to kiss away.

     

      Copyrights:

      I believe it is important to honor the original writers of material and I have tried to acknowledge the sources of all my material.  My understanding of copyright is found here.  If you find that your own material is contained in this database and there is a valid reason it should not be here, let me know and I will delete it.

    How to install a complete SID database...

    Here is a how-to guide for installing the entire database, step-by-step.  Vista users should read the note.

     

     

    SID_Setup.exe  < < < <

    If you are running Windows NT you need to have installed Service Pack 6 (or, alternatively Service Pack 3 along with Internet Explorer 5 or later).

    If you are running Windows 95 you need to have installed Internet Explorer 5 or later (or, if only at Internet Explorer 4.1, then you must install Microsoft's DCOM95) and in any case you will need to install Microsoft's
    Jet 4 pack (there are different ones for different Windows versions; go here for all the files)


    You can download these files here, or go to Microsoft's download page here.

    This is the installation version for SID, the generic "front-end" that allows a user to view the sermon and illustration data files in sections 2 - 3 below.  It is self-installing and creates a directory on your hard-drive and puts an icon on your desktop.  It contains a single illustration and sermon - you add the rest by downloading the sermon and illustration sets (and supplements), unzipping them, and then click the IMPORT icon in SID's iconbar.  Be patient - each file can take 10 to 15 minutes to process and it may seem like the program is hung up, but it is not.

    This version fixes the number problem; for more info on saving your own data, go here.

    Those who have Microsoft Access should use one of the versions below.

    If you don't have hundreds of dollars to buy Microsoft Access, you can still open these databases.  But first you have to download and install this free file, called a Run-Time or Standalone version of Access.  Unzip it in its own directory and click Setup.exe.  This is new for me, so email me if you run into problems.

    This is the installation version for Access97 users.  It is similar to the mini-database but is self-installing.  It creates a directory on your hard-drive and offers to put an icon on your desktop.  It contains few illustrations or sermons - you add these by downloading the sermon and illustration sets (and supplements) and then use the UPDATE button on the database's opening form.  Any version of Access from 97 on should be able to open this database, though more recent versions should use the file below.

    Version 7.0 is a complete makeover and is similar to the SID interface.  Version 7.4 enhances search capabilities for numbers and indexes.  (a small supplement that will do this for you is at the bottom of this 1b. section)

    Existing users of what I now call the "Classic" version (6.9 and below) can ugrade by using this file as a "forms_update" supplement.  See the detailed directions three entries below.  Note: the forms in this file refer to Fieldnames in the Sermon file that your version may not have.  Look at the Sermons Table in this file with Design View, and compare to what you have.  The bottom entries need to be copied to your existing Sermons table.  A soon-to-come supplement will automate this...

    Owners of previous Access versions (except those who are using the new Combo format) should download this update.  It fixes a number of glitches and provides new 1280x1024 forms for those with larger monitors.  (As of Jan 18, 2007, it includes the ability to change the font of illustrations and sermons.)  Install it just like a supplement. 

    Note to those who use the Classic version: the "Intro pop-up" form cannot replace itself; instead, the new version gets the name "Intro pop-up2".  After you do the update, press the F11 key to bring up the tabbed database folder and click the Forms tab.  Delete the form named "Intro pop-up".  Then right-click on "Intro pop-up2" and rename it to "Intro pop-up" (without the parentheses).

    I recommend you try out the new Combo version (three lines up).  It has a simplified search screen and even updates the Intro pop-up screen with no hassles.

    3a. Sermon sets

    (for both Access and SID)

     

     

    These sets were reorganized in January 2007 to produce fewer sets with more sermons in each one; previously the data on this page reflected the consolidation, but the sets did not!  Now they do.  These sets can take a long time to process with the Update/Import button so be patient; you may have to Compact your database partway through.  Advice on downloading Kerux content can be found here.  Download a text file master list

     

     

    WinZip for decompressing files

    Website for downloading WinZip, a shareware program that will decompress these "zipped" files.  For an older version that I prefer, click here (WinZip 7.0).

    A word of advice - if you are adding all these sets at one time in MS Access, you will need to compact the database at this point.  On the menu bar at the top of the program click TOOLS, then DATABASE UTILITIES, then COMPACT.  It also helps to close and restart the program.

    All of these supplements are included in the sermon sets above.  These supplements are intended for users who have already assembled a large database and want to keep up-to-date.  When you add multiple sets, be sure and compact the database occasionally, especially if you get the message "Database has reached maximum size."  On the menu bar at the top of the program click TOOLS, then DATABASE UTILITIES, then COMPACT.
