Social Media for Churches: Reaching Your Community Beyond Sunday

For many people, the first visit to a church happens on a phone. They watch a sermon clip, scroll a feed, and check the website before walking through the doors. Sharing the message online with care and consistency is part of serving the community.

What to share

• Sermon clips — 30–90 second highlights from each message.
• Testimonies and community stories.
• Pastor devotionals and short talking-head encouragement.
• Events and outreach before and after.
• Behind the scenes — volunteers, worship team, kids ministry (with consent).
• Plan-your-visit content showing parking, check-in and what to expect.

Consistency without burnout

One recorded sermon can become several clips, a podcast episode and a week of posts. A simple weekly workflow, or a partner handling editing, keeps volunteers from burning out.

Website basics

Service times, location, what to expect, next steps for new visitors, sermons and giving — easy to find on a phone.
