Blessed are they who livestream their church services
for the Kingdom of Heaven is theirs to share with others and they know it.
Blessed are the sick and the dying in churches which livestream
for they shall be comforted by still being able to be part of their congregations
in addition to receiving the personal and pastoral care of their friends and clergy.
Blessed are those who are meek enough to know that audio matters more than video
for they will inherit the online audience.
Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for life-changing worship both online and in-person
for their love of God will be counted as righteousness.
Blessed are the joyful
for their joy online will light up the world.
Blessed are the purposeful
for they will make their livestreaming easy to find and they will ensure that
no-one needs to download a hymnsheet, a liturgy book and a pdf version of the notices.
Blessed are the livestream makers
for they are counted amongst the evangelists of today.
Blessed are the congregations who rejoice in the technical and digital skills of those who are often overlooked
for they shall reap a harvest of plenty.
Blessed are those who know that their worship would be better not livestreamed yet
for they know that they need to concentrate on renewing their in-person worship first.
Blessed are you when people make snarky comments about your livestream
for they are telling you they want it to be better for the honour and the glory of the Lord our God.
