Church sermon clips: Sunday's message carries through the week.

The service has already been recorded or streamed. Sermon clips take the message to people who weren't there. Free Content turns the sermon into short videos with captions and leaves one a day scheduled — without your media volunteer needing to know how to edit.

Church sermon clips in three steps.

From Sunday's service to the week's posts, without opening an editing program.

01

Point to the recording

The service file on the church computer or the livestream link on YouTube. With the link, you mark just the sermon and the app downloads only that part.

02

Ask for the clips

Choose how many videos and how long. The AI reads the whole sermon and picks the strongest moments, always starting and ending on a complete sentence.

03

Schedule the week

Review, fix whatever needs fixing and schedule: one clip a day on the church's Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Pinterest or Bilibili.

See the Clip Maker at work.

A tutorial recorded inside the app: a long video becomes vertical clips with captions and the speaker's face always in frame. It works the same way with a church service.

Designed for the media volunteer.

In most churches, the person running social media is a volunteer doing it in their spare time. The app takes the technical part out of the way.

One service, a week of content.

An example plan for the media team. The number of clips is up to you and depends on the length of the message.

If the pastor wants to see it first, just show the scheduled list: it shows everything that will go out, and any post can be canceled before it goes live.

With care and respect for the message.

The AI picks moments that make sense on their own, but the church is the one that knows the message. That's why you should always watch before publishing. A clip taken out of context can say something the pastor didn't mean — and reviewing prevents that.

Prefer clipping the sermon, authorized testimonies and announcements. Worship usually includes third-party music, and networks can block the video for copyright. On clips, the app already places AI-generated music under the speech.

It's also worth agreeing with leadership on how many videos go out per week and who approves them. A simple approach: the volunteer prepares the batch on Monday, the pastor or media lead watches it, and only then is the week scheduled. The app doesn't decide anything on its own — it just takes the grunt work out of the way.

The church computer needs to run 64-bit Windows 10 or 11; on Macs with Apple chips there's a beta version. Everything runs on it: the recording isn't uploaded to any server. To see the pieces up close, check out the auto captions, how the app can convert horizontal video to vertical and how it posts to social media on its own.

Frequently asked questions.

If your question is about the app in general, the home FAQ covers the rest.

Which app makes sermon clips automatically?
Free Content's Clip Maker: point it at the sermon recording and it transcribes, picks the strongest moments, frames the preacher and adds captions. Unlike most clipping tools, it also publishes or schedules to 10 networks — Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Pinterest and Bilibili — from the same app.
How do I make sermon clips for Instagram and Shorts?
Ask for vertical clips (1080×1920): the same file works for Instagram Reels, YouTube Shorts and TikTok. Then publish in one click or schedule one a day on each network.
Can someone who has never edited video use it?
Yes. There's no timeline to deal with: you point to the recording, choose how many clips you want and the app does the rest. The volunteer's job is to watch, fix and approve.
Can I clip straight from the service livestream on YouTube?
Yes. Paste the stream link and mark the start and end of the sermon. The app downloads only that section, without downloading the entire service.
Can I include worship music in the clips?
Carefully. Songs by other artists are usually copyrighted, and networks can block or mute the video. The safest option is to clip the sermon, announcements and testimonies the person has authorized.
Does the app post to the church's pages?
Yes. It publishes in one click or schedules to Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, LinkedIn, X, Threads, Bluesky, Pinterest and Bilibili, on the accounts you connect.
How does the church pay?
Through Mercado Pago, on one plan — no credits, no minute quota, scheduling included — at R$ 47/month (Brazilian reais). Cancel anytime. Before that, 7 free days with the full app, no credit card.
Does it need a powerful computer?
It needs 64-bit Windows 10 or 11, or a Mac with an Apple chip on the beta version. There's no queue and no minute limit: everything runs on the machine, so the time for each batch depends on the computer. On a simpler computer, the clips just take longer to be ready.
Can I add the church logo? Does Free Content branding show?
Yes, you can add the church logo. And Free Content branding never shows: the app never adds a watermark, not even during the trial.
Does the camera follow the preacher?
Yes. In vertical, the frame follows the face of whoever is speaking — the preacher — even when they move or the stream switches cameras.
How long should a sermon clip be?
You choose the length before asking for the clips, and the AI respects it, always closing on a complete sentence. Shorter clips suit Reels and Shorts; longer ones give a full idea room to breathe.
Are the church's videos safe?
The recording stays on the church's computer: it isn't uploaded to any server to be clipped. Files and keys stay on the machine; a video only leaves when you publish it.
