A standard feature in calendar apps is that you can choose whether the week is set to start on a Sunday or Monday. In the US, Sunday is often considered the first day of the week. In other countries, it is often Monday.

Ideally, there should be UI- or country-specific presets.

    Korea is also take Sunday is the first day of a week in calendar, but this is good option for internationals.

    this will be helpful in Germany. We start the week on Monday.

    I'm in America and like to start the week on Monday as well so that I can keep my weekend days together on a calendar. I don't preach, but I'd think that if I preached the same sermon on a Saturday night service and Sunday services I'd want them grouped together and not in different weeks.

    PLEASE!! I usually see my week starting on Sunday. But as for preaching, I really start working on Sunday's message on the Monday before. Therefore Monday leads to Sunday. So for the Sermon Manager it'd be immensely helpful for the week to start on Monday ending with Sunday's message.

    Since Sunday is traditionally the day the sermon 'ships' then Monday is the start of its development cycle. This would be helpful.

    Absolutely!! Not just a country difference, but as a minister, my sermon planning week starts on Monday planning for the following Sunday. It'd be nice to have that Sunday with the week prior since that's when I'm working on that message! Thanks!

    From a preaching & teaching perspective, my week really ends on Sunday and then I observe "sabbath" on Mondays which begins my new week.  Giving each person the flexibility to choose how weeks should appear in Sermon Manager would be very useful.

    Since I began preaching & teaching regularly every calendar I own or app I use I set Monday to the first day of the week. Visually it is a massive help in sermon prep and planning.

    The Week needs to display the week before not beginning with the date that the sermon is delivered. Providing a user determine date range or default to the week before. Sermon preparation often begins on Monday before

    I like the idea to make it an option.  I still use a Day-Timer paper planner, 2-page per week, and it runs Monday through Sunday.

    I think most pastors actually begin their week on Tuesday (and take Monday off) - so having optionality to set any date would probably be helpful.
