Today, I'm going to share with you my picks for the best budget cameras for churches in 2020.

 

Not too long ago, I released my list of best cameras for churches this year, but you and I both know that not every church can spend thousands of dollars on camera equipment.

 

So what are we to do?

 

Well, stick around and you'll learn about a number of highly capable camera configurations and setups that are listed at less than $500.

Today, I want to share with you my social media awards for churches in 2020. These are the pastors, ministries, and churches that I think are leading the way for rest of us on social. And this is a diverse list. You'll find bigger churches, smaller churches, churches with varying theological distinctives - and if you're looking for inspiration or fresh ideas - they most certainly are worth a follow. So let's dive in.

There's a church stage design trend that I've been seeing pop up more and more lately.

 

And this church stage design trend is different from virtually every other because it's focused more on setting the stage for preaching rather than music.

 

So stick around, and I'll share with you a number of examples of churches implementing this kind of setup - and you'll learn about the missional reasoning behind this type of configuration.

Today, I want to share with you my picks for the best three video camera setups for churches in 2020. Each of these three kits will capture stunning video (and one can even shoot great photos as well) - but, no camera body is perfect. So stick around, and by the end, you'll know what makes each of these three cameras special, but I'll also explain their weaknesses as well.
