I'm trying to look at a couple builds to "babysit" new players in PFS. I'm looking specifically at building a buffer/healer and was trying to find the FAQ on the Evangelist/Sensei and how they interact with certain feats. Can anyone please direct me to the FAQ? I've searched and my google-fu appears to be weak.

At the top-right corner of pretty much any page on Paizo.com (including this one) there's a "Help/FAQ" link. That will take you to every single Paizo FAQ in existence, sorted by book/topic. I'm not sure what FAQ you're looking for, but I would check the ones for the book(s) that contain the archetypes/feats you're wondering about. Hope that helps!

Maybe you should say what exactly you are looking for instead of just a FAQ to interact with certain feats and abilities?
Also, if you have been told there is a FAQ covering whatever it is you are after, ask whomever told you that to produce it. Often there is a lot of misinformation in regards to what has been made a FAQ/Errata and what has been discussed on the forums.
If your search is to see if the Bardic Performance feats work with the Evangelist Sermon or the Sensei Advice, the Evangelist write up specifically states that it does while the Sensei states that it performs exactly as bardic performance.

Well, all right. Spellsong specifically calls out bard spells as being able to be masked and use rounds of bardic performance in place of concentration.
I've been told by a number of people in the PFS community there is a FAQ about the Advice and Sermonic Performance and how they interact with feats, but cannot find it in the regular FAQ section or the PFS FAQ section.
So I'm curious if this is something that has been adjudicated to allow cleric spells to be used in the spellsong feat for evangelists or if it as it stands RAW.

I didn't see anything in the PFS FAQ and there is nothing in the Ultimate Magic (the book Spellsong is from) FAQ referencing it that I could find.
The feat does specifically call out Bard spells, so by RAW I would say no, it does not apply unless you can also cast Bard spells, a Cleric/Bard for example.
For a home game I think it should be no problem, but... you never know how strict people will be on it.
It's very possible that this is part of a much more broad FAQ such as this one:
http://paizo.com/paizo/faq/v5748nruor1fm#v5748eaic9qt8
(Not, this doesn't actually mean anything in your situation, but just an example).
That being said, I do believe you count as having the Bardic Performance class feature for prerequisites. I don't think it would apply to Spellsong, however. Sadly, I have no source. Maybe take a peruse through the FAQS (I was searching for class feature but didn't find anything in particular). Might help.

That is completely unrelated, Akinra.
He's not looking for a renamed version of one of his own class abilities, but an ability that mimics ANOTHER classes ability. In this case Sermon, which replaces some of channel and mimics bardic performance.
The question at hand here is how that ability, which in it's description says if functions exactly like Bardic Performance, would work with a feat that requires Performance AND Bard spells. That is actually the hang up here, the fact that as an Evangelist Cleric, he has a performance ability, but he doesn't cast Bard spells to qualify for the Spellsong feat.

A FAQ that doesn't exist where I pointed you, doesn't exist at all. That's the official list of all Paizo FAQs.
I don't know what questions you're wanting answered, but you should ask the person who said there was a FAQ to cite it.
Eh?!? I looked at the page it only includes "Paizo" FAQs. I.e. stuff related to Paizo itself and it's web-site. If you want Rules-related FAQs, you need to check out the product pages.
For example, go to the Paizo Store and look up the Core Rulebook, and it has an FAQ. Same for APG, UM, UC, etc.
You need to figure out what product covers your question and check its FAQ. Unfortunately, it's not always that simple, but that's a good start.

Sorry Wraithkin. I looked and looked and searched and searched and couldn't find anything official. Comments on the boards seem to lean strongly towards RAW, Spellsong only works on Bard Spells cast using Bard Slots.
I did run into Harmonic Spell, which interestingly does not say it applies only to Bard Spells. Not nearly the same feat, but could work nicely with an Evangelist or Maestro/Sorceror.

So you missed the giant box on the right where you can check out every FAQ ever, sorted by book or topic?
