5 Churches that Do Live Streamed Services

 

Have you heard about churches all over the world doing live streams of their church services? While live streaming a church service is controversial to some (because they believe it should not replace attending church in person), sometimes it’s an extremely helpful way for those who are traveling, ill, homebound, or otherwise unable to attend church in person to connect with other Christians over a message given by a pastor.

Does your church live stream a service? Leave us a note in the comments so that others can listen in! Or, if your church doesn’t do a streamed service, the next time you’re sick on a Sunday, tune in and listen to one of the following services:
