Everything here happens in the web console, under Events. Running live events needs a Pro or Enterprise plan.
1. Create the event and a session
Add the event with its time, venue and image. Then add at least one session — a session is what actually goes live, which is how one event can run a main hall and a youth room in parallel.
2. Assign a songbook
Curate a songbook under Songbooks → Manage, then assign it to the event. The live console casts from the assigned songbook, so what you can push is deliberately scoped to what you planned.
3. Build the run of show
Open the Live Console and add the elements you'll need, in order:
- Songs — the whole song, or an individual verse or chorus as a slide
- Bible verses — picked by language, version, book, chapter and verse
- Announcements, prayer requests and praise reports
- Sermon and speaker slides, birthdays and anniversaries
- Polls and quizzes, prepared in advance under Events → Elements
- A QR slide, so people can join from the screen
Drag to reorder. A slide can show a second language underneath the first — a transliteration or translation for a song, or a second translation for a Bible verse.
4. Go live and cast
Hit Go live on the session, then Push each element as you reach it. It appears on every device in the room and on the big screen at once.
The big screen has its own full-screen page you can open on a projector or TV. It follows whatever you cast.
