When PowerPoint was released back in 1990 it revolutionized the presentation scene, and as a result became quite popular in the church. While PowerPoint may work in the church setting, there are simply too many things it can’t do.
Here are 4 reasons why you should put PowerPoint aside next service, and try Proclaim:
- It’s created for ministry: At its core, Proclaim is built with the Church’s needs in mind. Every feature included in Proclaim is designed to help make ministry easier. Features like the pre- and post-service loops make it easy to show announcements, and the warm-up section guarantees you’ll always start your services on time.
- It’s optimized for Scripture: You’re here because you know that Faithlife makes the most advanced digital Bible study tools in the world. That expertise is built right into the Proclaim Scripture engine. Proclaim comes standard with over 20 Bible translations and features that let you bring up verses on the fly. If you’re running PowerPoint, you have no other option but to run third-party software to display Scripture during the service. Proclaim fully integrates with Logos Bible Software, allowing you to send content right from your library to the screen.
- It’s built for lyrics and song management: With Proclaim, worship leaders can import lyrics directly from CCLI or planning software like Planning Center or Elvanto. Proclaim also has built-in hotkeys that let you easily bring up a no-text slide for an instrumental section, or display the bridge lyrics when the worship leader suddenly goes off script. No more duplicating slides, switching between presentations or showing the “End of Slideshow” screen while the band is still playing.
- It’s Collaborative: Proclaim provides your team with the tools they need to seamlessly assemble sermons, worship sets, announcements, and graphics from any computer, anywhere! Changes to presentations sync effortlessly between computers so you’ll never have to worry about losing files again. Collaboration means smoother services and less work for everyone involved!
Using the appropriate tool for the job means faster results and better-quality work. Put PowerPoint aside next service, and see for yourself just how much time and energy you and your team will save with Proclaim.
