Ways to share Sermons4Kids videos with your church

Watching videos has become a popular way to engage and entertain children in today's world. This is especially true when it comes to teaching them about the Bible. Sermons4Kids offers a wide variety of engaging and educational videos that can be used in a church setting. Here are some tips for showing a Sermons4Kids video to kids in your church, whether you have access to internet or not.

It is important to plan ahead and choose the appropriate video for the lesson or message you want to convey to the children. Browse through the Sermons4Kids website and find a suitable video that aligns with the lesson. Once you have selected the video, you can download the MP4 file. Please note that all of our videos will show the watermark unless you download the video onto your phone or computer.

Now, if you have internet access in your church, you can stream the video by connecting your device to a TV or projector (see the infographic below for some options we recommend). Some churches have a designated media room or an AV team that can assist in setting up the equipment. It is important to make sure that everything is set up before the children arrive to avoid any unnecessary interruptions during the lesson. 

However, if you do not have internet access in your church, you can still show the video by downloading the MP4 file onto a USB drive or a DVD. This way, you can play the video directly from the USB or DVD without the need for internet. It is always a good idea to test the video beforehand to make sure it plays smoothly.

In case of technical difficulties, it is always beneficial to have a backup plan. This could involve having printed materials or coloring sheets related to the lesson to keep the children occupied while the issue is being resolved.

It is important to note that while videos can be a great tool for teaching, they should not replace traditional methods such as storytelling and hands-on activities. Sermons4Kids has a plethora of resources that can be used in conjunction with the videos to make the lesson more comprehensive and interactive for the children.

Sermons4Kids videos are a great way to engage and teach children about the Bible. With proper planning and preparation, these videos can be easily incorporated into your church's lessons. Whether you have access to internet or not, the flexibility of downloading the videos onto a USB or DVD allows for smooth and uninterrupted teaching.
