What SermonCast is
SermonCast provides online video and live streaming for Christian churches and ministries. It can deliver a stream to a church website, Facebook, YouTube, mobile apps, and OTT platforms at the same time. Churches can schedule pre-recorded content with countdowns, chat, and time-zone targeting for simulated live broadcasts. Live streams are automatically recorded for replay, trimming, or sharing, and an ad-free, mobile-responsive player can be embedded on a website. Its virtual campus includes live chat, sermon notes, Scripture integration, visitor registration, and calls to action. Branded apps are offered for Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV, and mobile devices, including a 24/7 virtual church channel. Analytics show viewer location, unique viewers, watch time, and devices.
