As a minister with a church who has an older age base we also have many who may be home-bound. Some of them even have technology abilities. I also agree that it should not take away from the community feel that God created his church to have. <br><br>The question I have…is there anyway that we could broadcast live, but to view you have to have a password? This could be something that changes periodically. This could be something a member could get to give to a seeking friend. This could also be something we emailed out to our members who are stuck in the hospital or at home. Just a thought I had yesterday. Did not know if the provider you used (or any equivalent provider) had that technology built in. Jason,

It's going to bridge the gap. Giving people a chance to see what they missed or pass it on to share with a friend. But what we don't want is to give people a reason to abandon the community of the local church. I agree- it can never replace being with the church family every week. Good thoughts Becky.

I feel like I miss a lot during that time. I wouldn't want it to be broadcast live but I'd like to be able to watch it after. Especially to show other people who I may be talking to about the message that day. We jump to youtube videos all the time to make a point, I'd love to do the same to show my friends what I heard in church on Sunday. It would never replace attending and being with my family every week. for someone who doesn't have an ipod or have a clue how to record and listen to service if the service was online AFTER church then I could watch it the months that I'm volunteering.
