Mistake #1: Sacrificing Quality

Think about it: Would you watch a video with blurry visuals and muffled audio? Probably not. Invest in good equipment and basic editing software. Remember, a professional presentation goes a long way in capturing viewers' attention.

Mistake #2: Oversharing Secrets

Encouraging interaction is fantastic! However, be mindful of privacy.  Never share personal experience about your congregation or individuals without their explicit consent.

Mistake #3: Stiring Up Controversy

Focus on the core message of Christianity – love, hope, and faith. Avoid divisive or controversial topics that might alienate viewers seeking inspiration and guidance.

Mistake #4: Copyright Caper

Copyright laws exist to protect creators. Always ensure you have permission or use royalty-free music, images, and videos in your content. Give proper credit when using licensed material.

Mistake #5: Inconsistent Uploads

Imagine your favorite show taking a random three-month hiatus. Frustrating, right?  The same goes for YouTube. Develop a consistent upload schedule to keep your audience engaged and coming back for more.
