But videoscreens and <a href=\"http:\/\/blog.beliefnet.com\/stuffchristianculturelikes\/2009\/07\/88-jumbotrons.html\">jumbotrons<\/a> are also necessary for the videos that are sure to be displayed.<\/p>\n<p>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mt-image-center\" height=\"323\" alt=\"video1.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/105\/import\/visual%20media\/video1.jpg\" width=\"555\" \/><\/span><br \/>A church video is often produced by the church&#8217;s creative team who work closely with the worship leader. It will feature lots of smash-cuts and white flashes set to Christian music that sounds like Nickelback. (Although they want it to sound like Coldplay.) The purpose of a church video is usually to tell an inspirational story, introduce a sermon series, or to get you &#8220;pumped up&#8221; for worship. <\/p>\n<p>\n<span class=\"mt-enclosure mt-enclosure-image\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"mt-image-center\" height=\"281\" alt=\"video5.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/wp-media.beliefnet.com\/sites\/105\/import\/visual%20media\/video5.jpg\" width=\"495\" \/><\/span><br \/>The presence of the video screen tells you that this church Values Technology and wants to be Culturally Relevant. These same churches often encourage tweeting during church and have a church iPhone app. The nuances of these technological treats will be discussed further in a future post. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A church video is often produced by the church&#8217;s creative team who work closely with the worship leader.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":208,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[71,45,48,51,110,316],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-179","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-beth-moore","category-church-videos","category-creative-pastor","category-jumbotrons","category-megachurches","category-visual-media"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v23.9 -
