Are you trying to take your church online until the coronavirus passes? If so, one of the hardest parts is figuring out your sermon recording—and then how to share it. It can be daunting, but it doesn’t have to be.
These simple instructions can help you get up and running in time for Sunday. (If you have any trouble, our Church Support Center is open and ready to help.)
(more…)Proclaim makes it easy to record your sermons, and publishing them online or in a podcast is nearly effortless. But what if you want to review your sermons with staff, a mentor, or on your own? Or, more importantly, what’s the best way for your congregation to watch your sermons from home?
With a Roku device or Apple TV, you and your church can enjoy your sermons from wherever you watch TV. Here’s how it works:
Publishing your sermons online is the first step to watching them on TV. You can publish them without leaving Proclaim, and the sermon automatically becomes visible to your church group on Faithlife.com as well as your profile on SoundFaith.com.
Thanks to Faithlife, your published sermons are also visible on Faithlife TV—and that’s how you and your congregation can watch your sermons on the big screen. Faithlife TV organizes thousands of Christian documentaries, video lectures, movies, and other videos into categories you can easily browse. Videos uploaded to your Faithlife Groups appear in the “My Faithlife” category. All of your published sermons will appear here.
Proclaim’s sermon recording feature lets you choose an image to use as a thumbnail. Add a title slide to help your church quickly browse your published sermons. If someone can’t find your sermon on Faithlife TV, it probably means one of two things:
1. You didn’t publish it yet.
2. They haven’t joined your church group. (Here’s how to set yours up.)
To start watching your sermons from the comfort of your home, add the Faithlife TV channel to your Roku device or Apple TV.
When you publish your sermons with Proclaim, they’re also available on mobile. Get the Faithlife TV app or watch on FaithlifeTV.com.

Last week we showed you how to quickly edit your sermon recordings right in Proclaim. In this week’s Monday Minute we show you how to test your audio level by recording a sample and playing it back before going On Air. This will help you set optimal input levels and ensure the published audio is audible.
