When it comes to church presentation software, MediaShout stands out as a strong contender, offering a blend of robust features and surprising simplicity. It’s designed to help churches display worship media, lyrics, scriptures, and announcements seamlessly during services and gatherings, all without requiring a technical expert to operate.
Key Advantages of MediaShout:
- Simple to Use: MediaShout prides itself on being “so simple you don’t have to be a pro to use it.” Its intuitive control screen allows the operator to manage the presentation effortlessly, while the audience sees a polished display.
- Perpetual License (Buy Once, Own Forever): Unlike many subscription-based software solutions, MediaShout offers a perpetual license. You purchase the software once and own it indefinitely, which is a significant advantage for long-term budgeting and cost-effectiveness.
- Site License & Included Bibles: A site license allows for unlimited computer installations, providing incredible flexibility for churches with multiple setups. Plus, it includes 70 Bible versions at no extra cost – a feature that can be an additional expense with other software.
- Dedicated Stage Display/Confidence Monitor: MediaShout provides a separate output for a Stage Display (or Confidence Monitor), ensuring your worship leaders and speakers have the information they need without disrupting the audience’s view.
- Flexible Media and Text Display: You can display almost any type of media file, including videos, images, and audio. It’s also easy to overlay text (like lyrics or sermon points) over these media files, even using popular motion backgrounds.
- Seamless Integration with CCLI SongSelect: For worship teams, the built-in integration with CCLI SongSelect is a game-changer. You can search and insert lyric slides for countless worship songs with just a few clicks, saving valuable preparation time. You can also easily add your own custom lyrics.
- Instant Scripture Display: With its extensive library of Bible versions, you can quickly insert any scripture on the fly during a service with just a point and click.
- Sermon Builder: Pastors can utilize the Sermon Builder to quickly create professional-looking sermon slides from their talking points in under five minutes.
- Easy Announcement Loops: Creating looping announcement slides for church events and gatherings is straightforward, whether you use simple text or more advanced graphics.
- Free 14-Day Trial & Personal Consultation: MediaShout offers a fully-featured, watermark-free 14-day free trial, making it ideal for testing in live worship environments. They also provide the option to schedule a free setup call or consultation with a real person to discuss how MediaShout can benefit your ministry.
