If your church’s live stream is currently battling cat videos, political arguments, and clickbait ads, (and it proably is), it’s time to reclaim your digital sanctuary. You can now continue to stream using YouTube or Facebook and have it embedded on your own church website. (and you only have to embed it once!)
We are talking about moving your live stream from social media platforms and embedded it directly onto your church website using a dedicated service like StreamingChurch.tv.
You no longer have a distracting broadcast; You will have a church-centric live stream experience.
Centralizing Your Ministry Tools
The core problem with streaming on a platform like Facebook or YouTube is that it pulls your audience away from your mission. They might watch your sermon, but they aren’t interacting with your church.
By using an embedded, customizable platform, you now have all the essential church-based tools living right alongside the live video. Think of your website as your new digital campus. This means:
- Sermon Notes and the Bible are instantly accessible.
- A private prayer feature allows guests to connect with a pastor or team member.
- Real-time chat creates genuine community engagement.
It’s a truly unified experience where everything a worshiper needs is in one, distraction-free location.
Set It and Forget It: Simple Setup and Reliable Streaming
You might think embedding a live stream is complicated, but it couldn’t be simpler. Our process for getting started was straightforward:
- Choose Your Source: Simply select whether you stream to Facebook Live or YouTube.
- Copy the Embed Code: The platform generates a permanent embed code. Copy and past it onto your church website where you want the stream to appear.
- Go Live: That’s it! Whenever you start your stream on Facebook or YouTube, it automatically appears on your church website—complete with all your customized ministry tools and zero social media distractions.
The one-time embed code is a game-changer. It never changes, which means no more technical scrambling or broken links every week.
Get the Real Numbers: Automated Attendance and Analytics
One of the biggest struggles for online ministry leaders is tracking genuine engagement. Were those 50 views 50 people, or one person refreshing the page 50 times?
Now, we get real, automated weekly attendance stats emailed directly to our team every Monday morning. This church-based analytics system gives us clear data on participation, not just vanity metrics.
But it goes even further: the platform includes AI tools that analyze our stream and participation, providing suggestions for improvement. This helps us refine our content and our outreach efforts every single week.
Powerful Features to Grow Your Ministry
You’ll be surprised by the extensive list of features included, all designed specifically for churches:
- Automated Follow Up: The system automatically identifies first-time visitors and sends a personalized email after they leave the service. It even sends custom messages to second-timers and a “we missed you” email to those who haven’t returned!
- Customize Everything: You can fully customize the platform to match your ministry’s design and branding.
- Cover Image or Video: When you’re not streaming live, a cover image or video is displayed, keeping your website looking professional.
- Unlimited Streaming: Stream as much as you need without worrying about limits.
With features like 7-day streaming support, safety and security measures, and an affordable monthly price after a 30-day free trial, this is the essential next step for any church looking to grow its digital presence.
Stop handing your audience over to the distractions of social media. Bring your live stream home and give your congregation the focused, powerful online worship experience they deserve!
