Tell stories of life change in your church. Even if you have to shoot an on an iPhone, that’s okay... just tell them.
Be willing to mix up your service order and use video at any point in the service. You don’t have to limit it to just a sermon video bumper.
Don’t let limited resources be your excuse for not making and creating videos. Empower some young people in your church to make videos, they might just surprise you.
