Audio or Video Versions of Your Churches Sermons
Online audio and video are increasingly popular ways to distribute media, especially with the advent of standards and software for podcasting. For web distribution you will need computer files containing digital recordings of your sermons, and one or more ways to make the content of the files available. The contents of your audio and video file can be delivered by making files available by "streaming play", manual file download, or automated download from a web feed (podcast).
Help few links providing help for making audio versions of your sermon available online are:
Putting Sermons Online -- an introductory tutorial, courtesy of the Baptists.
Streaming Audio Primer -- a more thorough introduction; unfortunately the sound editing software featured is no longer inexpensively available, but Audacity is similar in operation, free, open-source, and excellent.
