Streaming Your Church Service: Why, What, How, + Hacks
Streaming your church service can be complex & confusing. Does streaming hurt your physical attendance? Why stream your church? What do you stream? How do you stream? Any hacks to take your church stream to the next level? I cover these questions and more in the video.
Why stream: New people and members.
What to stream: full worship service, but focus only on streaming one service weekly.
How to stream: focus on YouTube streaming at the beginning THEN expand to Facebook Live and finding a streaming partner like Resi.
Hacks:
Measure weekly views & audience retention & historical trends.
Lean into the tension of hybrid church... whatever that means at YOUR CHURCH.
Invest into video beyond just streaming your church service.
Empower a volunteer or staff person to care for the online experience of your church. Wrestle through "Campus" vs. "Community" and "Weekend Broadcast" vs. "Church". Are you a location-based church or a location-less church?
