Developer — Build a Searchable Sermon Library + Android App

Posted 4 days ago

Worldwide

Summary

The Project I want my own private, searchable library of the audio and text sermons featured on sermonindex.net. The end result should be a simple Android app on my phone that lets me search by topic, speaker, or keyword, pull up a sermon, and listen to it. I'm looking for a developer who can handle this end to end: gather the content into an organized, searchable collection, and build the app that sits on top of it. This is for my own personal use. What I Need Built Content ingestion — A reliable way to pull the audio and text sermons from sermonindex.net into an organized library (respecting the site's terms and only collecting what it makes available). A searchable index — I need to search across topics, speakers, titles, and keywords and quickly find what I'm looking for. An Android app — Clean and simple. Search, browse, open a sermon, and stream or play the audio on my phone. Nothing fancy — easy and fast is the priority. Organized storage — Whatever back end makes this work reliably (cloud or device), set up so the library stays current and searchable. What I'm Looking For Solid experience building Android apps, especially with audio/media playback and search. Experience with web scraping / data ingestion and organizing large collections of files. Ability to design a clean, simple search experience — I'm not a technical user and want it to be easy. Clear communicator who can recommend the right approach rather than just take orders. To Apply Open your proposal with the phrase "open scroll" so I know you read this post all the way through. Proposals without it will be ignored. In a few sentences, tell me: How you'd approach gathering the sermons from sermonindex.net and keeping the library organized and current. The tech stack you'd use for the Android app and the search. A link to a relevant app or project you've built — ideally one involving audio playback or search.
