Church Media - Being Relevant Today7117924

When Jesus roamed the earth more than 2,000 years ago he would speak using illustrations and parables. When he would teach us not to judge other people He used a parable about removing a board from your personal eye before attempting to pull a piece of dirt from someone else's. When He spoke about caring for your enemies He relayed a parable we know as the Great Samaritan.

Now churches all over the world are recapturing the advantages of preaching via the use of illustrations. We have at our disposal the best story-telling medium in the world...video. Thousands of churches are now equipped with quality video projection tools which tends to make utilizing video and mediaan incredibly appealing way to teach individuals the Gospel.

Because of the relative small expense of video production gear many churches are starting to use their own creativity to inform relevant stories utilizing this medium. But other congregations that don't have the money, time or creativity to produce video elements are now also able to benefit from this exciting tool by utilizing videos created by other churches or production companies.

Churches from all around the globe are now creating short sermon videos a part of their regular service. With the advantage of the web they are in a position to watch, buy and download higher high quality videos straight to their computer. After download they are in a position to easily create a DVD or show it straight from their Computer.

Churches are also utilizing other creative media such as countdown clocks (five minute clips that countdown to the start of the service), images, and sermon outline packages to develop captivating and relevant sermons of the Word of God.

For these congregations that make the choice to step out and embrace technology they are finding that the old comment of church being "boring" is a thing of the past. Jesus was definitely not boring in his sermons and it is up to the congregations in our time period to present the Great News in as captivating of a way as feasible.
