Internet broadcasting of church services is all about connection to your congregation. It provides opportunities for people who would otherwise miss your service. For instance, members who are ill can watch a video stream from their home computer. Business travelers or vacationing members can tune-in a live webcast when out of town. Seasonal members can stay current from their “other home.” Shut-ins can experience their church services live, without waiting for a CD or DVD to arrive. People stuck in their home because of bad weather can “virtually attend.”
Live video streaming encourages visitors. People considering visiting your church can first watch your webcast. They get a good feel for your church before ever setting foot inside.
Live internet video also expands connection to extended families. A member with out-of-state family may encourage them to tune in for a special sermon series. In another case, a choir soloist with distant family can encourage them to watch, helping them connect with their family and with your church.
