THE CHALLENGES FACED BY THE MODERN CHURCH ARE NUMEROUS

  • Ageing populations = ageing, dispersed congregation, difficult to attend church

  • Smaller congregations = same amount of work for staff

  • Modern lifestyle choices = make people difficult to reach personally

  • Budgets spread too thin over numerous programs = limiting outreach

  • Declining volunteer corps = making harder to do ANY thing

  • Secularism making Christianity seem uncool to the youth = the church is absent from the places where people hang out

BUT THE COMMAND TO SPREAD THE GOSPEL REMAINS

PLEASE NOTE!

WE ARE PROPOSING AN INTEGRATED, COHESIVE SOLUTION.

This is NOT about 'sermon clips' - this is about implementing a strategy to build community by effective leveraging technology.

HOW DO YOU TURN ONE SERMON INTO AN OUTREACH & COMMUNITY-BUILDING MACHINE?

This the modern day challenge Churches face.

AND IMPORTANTLY, HOW DO WE DO THIS, SIMPLY, EASILY, EFFECTIVELY... WHILST REMAINING ON MESSAGE?

INTRODUCING THE FRAMEWORK FOR MODERN OUTREACH

LET'S TAKE ONE SERMON AS AN EXAMPLE...

STEP 1

RE-PURPOSE THE CONTENT

OUTPUT 1:

3 X CLIPS OR REELS

Included are 3 reels that are scheduled to be posted to Facebook and/or Instagram. Community is encouraged to share via personal platforms.

OUTPUT 2:

a 5-DAY DEVOTIONAL

The sermon is summarised in a 5-day devotional. This is distributed to the congregation via email, community platform or indirectly to Group Leaders for dissemination and discussion.

OUTPUT 3:

SERMON SUMMARY

The sermon summaries are generated in various lengths for various platforms and are ready to copy and paste to these channels and remain perfectly on message.

OUTPUT 4:

BLOG POST

Regular blog posts are great way for the website to build up solid, relevant content that represents the teachings of the Church accurately. This boosts SEO, and when visitors check out the website, they can easily get a good feel for the nature of the teachings.

OUTPUT 5:

DISCUSSION GUIDE

The discussion guide can be can be distributed via Newsletter, a longer form article or blog post, or in internal brochures. It can also be used for groups to study - it includes discussion questions etc. But we think it is a great way for creating a way for people to catch up quickly on a sermon series if they missed one session.

OUTPUT 7:

POSTS/ CAROUSELS

Create beautiful (Instragammable) posts that contain great graphics as well quotable quotes & motivational excerpts that are easy to share.

There is one important fact:

ALL OF THIS REQUIRES ZERO WORK FROM STAFF - EXCEPT IF REQUIRED, APPROVALS

STEP 2

BUILD COMMUNITY

Building and strengthening the community is optional (as a service to be provided) but we believe that it is vital to build strong online community as a mirror of the physical community in order future-proof the church.

  • All features included

  • eLearning built-in

  • Perfect access control

  • Private/public group channels

HOW DOES IT WORK?

  • Automated emails/SMS (optionally) to direct/ remind congregation

  • Community is organised into various channels - e.g. 'Staff' , 'Group Leaders', 'Men's Bible Study', 'Thursday Ladies' etc - to mirror the real world - including @EVERYONE

PROS & CONS TO CONSIDER

THERE IS NO REASON WHY THE CHURCH CAN'T USE AND BENEFIT FROM TECHNOLOGY

IT IS A SIMPLE PROCESS

AGREE ON SCOPE & PROCESS TO COLLECT SERMON AND RE-PURPOSE.

PRODUCE CONTENT AND DISTRIBUTE IN ACCORDANCE WITH AGREED SCOPE

EDUCATE AND ENCOURAGE KEY LEADERS, MONITOR AND GAIN FEEDBACK

LAUNCH A STUCTURED DIGITAL COMMUNITY TO MIRROR PHYSICAL COMMUNITY

WE TAKE THE 10 HOURS IT TOOK TO PREPARE A SERMON THAT IMPACTS 200 PEOPLE

AND TRANSFORM INTO A VARIETY OF DIGITAL FORMATS WITH AI

THAT COULD EASILY IMPACT 2,000 PEOPLE OR MORE!

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS?

10 X IMPACT!

  • NO extra work for staff - probably less

  • Ability to reach the un-churched inside and outside the community

  • Make it easier for community / home groups to share the content

  • Make sure that the week's message is reinforced beyond the Sunday

  • Strengthen community ties with higher frequency of interaction

  • Enable older/ non-mobile members to participate

  • Meet the un-churched where they are

  • The digital community is easier (less threatening) to join for seekers - and more likely to transition to physical community

  • The cost of the initiative can be self-funded (with easy surplus)

  • Getting 100% connection to congregation digital profiles allows effective and wide-spread communication on all other church matters

THIS FRAMEWORK ADDRESSES THE AGE-OLD PROBLEM OF HAVING TOO MANY 'SUNDAY CHRISTIANS'.

NOT ONLY CAN WE EQUIP & ENGAGE OUR CONGREGATION, BUT WE ALSO ENABLE THEM TO DISCIPLE THE UNCHURCHED EASILY AND EFFECTIVELY - WHERE THEY ARE!

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Question 1: How reliable is AI?

The AI we use is not general ChatGPT, but a Large Language Model trained on the Biblical context. This can seen in accuracy of biblical names and so forth. However, depending on the Pastor's enunciation and accent and speed of talking, some words can be miscontrued. Examples have been highlighted in the transcript above. These rare errors are possible, but do not amount to anything material. It definitely will not and cannot misconstrue a message and hallucinate unbiblical content. The content will reflect what is preached.

Question 2: What does it cost?

The cost my vary depending on which of our products (content output) are included and how many hours of video (how many different sermons) must be processed. There are 3 aspects to the Commex Offer and the prices mentioned below may vary slightly, but is fully inclusive of all software, licenses, content, creative, labour, reporting etc:

PRODUCTION:

For the typical church, recording one sermon, repurposing that content for distribution to 3 social channels would typically be in the region of $150/w - that is $600 /month.

DISTRIBUTION:

Churches have a choice depending on the available infrastructure as to whether they/ staff will be manually posting to the channels. Commex can also configure an automation platform to schedule these posts on the Church's social channels of choice (if provided appropriate access)

COMMUNITY: The software to create a digital home for the congregation is typically about $50/week or $200/month. After the initial training and setup, Commex Staff has no active role in running or maintaining the community. We would for instance set up an email that would go out weekly to all members, but this email is drawn from the sermon and is simply distributed along with other 'channels'. But there will be no additional charge - unless we are specifically commissioned to provide specific content etc.

OPTIONALLY

A website is obviously important. Most churches have a website, but to be frank, many are very ordinary, quite dated and has very limited functionality. The Commex Team can build brand-spanking new website for under $1000 once-off fee, and only $50/m for a standard church website.

Question 3: What is the commitment?

There is no long-term commitment or contract. Cancel at any time.However, given the significant time investment required upfront in the setup, configuration and training phase, should the project be cancelled in the first year, we will seek to recover a small portion of the upfront investment to the amount of $1500.

Question 4: What role do church staff/ volunteers play?

Any role they want.

Commex AI can take on all of the material functions and workload, and the church staff can/could play the following part:

1. Obviously, the delivery & recording of the sermon, and providing us with the link.

Optionally:

2. Receiving the content and approving it.

3. Publishing the content manually, directly.

Will it affect attendance?

We hope it does. Positively!

The digital content is a tool for effective 'InReach' - and is a way to keep in touch, keep the message of the week fresh, engage with all members (whether they attended the service or not) and to remind them of the body of Christ as the best way to structure their world.

What technology is required?

We use multiple internal tools to generate the content.

There is no interface with our tools required.

If and when the project moves to Stage 2 where we launch a digital community, we will provide the platform, host it, secure it and maintain it.

All of this happens on our infrastructure.

CHURCH TECH REQUIRED

1. A website to host the blog, and also to host a form where people can subscribe to a newsletter if applicable.

2. Social Media accounts (YouTube, Facebook, Instagram)

3. Email Software - Should a church use a Church Management System (like Elvanto or Breeze etc) that they want to integrate and automate, we will be able to advise depending on the specific platforms. Our platform can also be configured and customised to effectively replace all the key features of Elvanto )or similar)

STILL NOT SURE?

As reward for getting through all this...

If you would like a brand-new church website, we will build one AND host it ...
