What SermonCast is
SermonCast is a paid video and live-streaming service for Christian churches and ministries. It sends one stream to a church website, Facebook, YouTube, mobile apps and OTT platforms at the same time. Churches can schedule recorded programs as simulated live broadcasts with countdowns, chat and time-zone targeting. Live broadcasts are automatically saved for replay, trimming or sharing. An ad-free, mobile-responsive player can be embedded on a website, while a virtual campus combines live chat, sermon notes, Scripture integration, visitor registration and calls to action. Branded apps for Roku, Apple TV, Fire TV and mobile devices can provide a 24/7 virtual church channel. Analytics report viewer location, unique viewers, watch time and devices. Plans start at $59 a month billed annually, with Starter, Standard and Plus tiers. There is no free plan, but a free trial is available. Android, iOS and web access are listed.
