7 Powerful Ways SideSlide® Transforms Worship Presentations

7 Powerful Ways SideSlide® Transforms Worship Presentations

At Risen Media, we believe church presentations should be as dynamic and engaging as the message being delivered. That’s why we developed SideSlide®, our patented technology designed to take worship presentations to an entirely new level.

Your church can seamlessly display multiple pieces of content across different screens simultaneously with this advanced feature. Whether you’re leading worship, delivering a sermon, or live-streaming your service, this feature allows you to create a rich, multi-screen experience that enhances engagement, organization, and accessibility.

What is SideSlide?

SideSlide is a powerful feature in Risen Media’s church presentation software that lets presenters display different content on multiple screens simultaneously. Instead of being limited to a single slide at a time, it allows for layered, multi-screen presentations, ensuring that everyone, from your congregation to your worship team to your online audience, receives the information they need at the right time.

Traditional presentation tools restrict content to a single slide. You can present multiple elements at once, giving you complete control over what each audience sees. Whether you want to showcase song lyrics, sermon notes, Bible verses, images, videos, or livestream content, SideSlide enables seamless customization for every screen in your gathering space.

 

At Risen Media, we believe that church presentations should be just as inspiring and engaging as the message being shared. That’s why we developed SideSlide®, our patented multi-screen technology that takes church presentations to the next level.

Your church can present multiple pieces of content on different screens at the same time, creating a seamless, immersive experience for both in-person and online audiences. Whether sharing a sermon, or live-streaming your service, SideSlide ensures that every audience sees exactly what they need, without distractions or limitations.

Ready to see how SideSlide can revolutionize your church presentations? Let’s dive into the 7 most powerful ways this feature can enhance your presentation experience!

 

1. Display Multiple Presentation Elements at Once

Traditional church presentation software limits you to one slide at a time, making it difficult to present different types of content simultaneously. This feature eliminates this limitation by allowing you to show lyrics, Bible verses, sermon points, images, and videos, all at once across multiple screens.

Example Setup for Worship:

Display 1 & 3: Congregation’s screen – Presents worship lyrics in a clear, readable format.

Display 2: Artistic background or motion graphics to enhance the atmosphere.

Display 4: Confidence monitor for music leaders, showing lyrics with chords.

Streaming Output: Green screen with lower-third lyrics for live-stream viewers.

This ensures that every audience sees the right content at the right time, without clutter or distractions.

 

2. Enhance Congregational Engagement with Visual Storytelling

Church presentations should be more than just static slides, they should captivate and inspire. With SideSlide, you can layer multiple visuals to create a more immersive presentation experience.

For example, during a sermon on faith, you can display:

A Bible verse on one screen

A powerful image that complements the message on another

This visual storytelling approach makes your message more impactful and memorable.

 

3. Keep Worship Teams in Sync with Confidence Monitors

Leading a performance can be difficult when lyrics or chords are not visible. SideSlide solves this problem by allowing you to set up a confidence monitor specifically for your band members.

Worship Team Benefits:

Clear, easy-to-read lyrics with chords for musicians

No need to rely on paper notes or last-minute cues

Seamless transitions between songs

This reduces distractions, keeps your team focused, and ensures that music flows smoothly throughout the service.

 

4. Create a Professional Live Stream Experience

With more churches live-streaming their services, it’s crucial to ensure that your online audience gets a high-quality experience. SideSlide makes this effortless by allowing you to send a separate, optimized feed for live streaming.

How It Works:

In-person attendees see multiple screens displaying images and sermon notes, while online viewers only see the notes at the lower third. 

5. Keep Pastors on Track with Personalized Sermon Notes

SideSlide allows pastors to present private sermon notes on a confidence monitor, acting like a personal teleprompter.

Example Setup for Sermons:

Display 1: A Bible passage or main sermon point.

Display 2: A graphic or image that reinforces the message.

Display 3: A list of key takeaways for the congregation.

Display 4: The pastor can easily scroll through private sermon notes using a remote control. 

With SideSlide, pastors can focus on delivering their message naturally, without flipping through papers or looking down at notes.

 

6. Customize SideSlide for Any Worship Space

Whether your church has two screens or ten, SideSlide adapts to your needs. You can customize layouts based on your space, sermon style, or special events.

Why This Matters:

Works for small churches with just a couple of screens.

Scales for large churches with multiple projectors, LED walls, and streaming setups.

Supports different layouts for different types of services (Sunday worship, youth gatherings, special events, etc.).

With a flexible multi-screen setup, your church can deliver a seamless, distraction-free experience in any setting.

7. Seamless Multilingual Display

Multilingual functionality allows seamless content display across multiple languages, enhancing accessibility for diverse congregations. With this feature, users can present content, such as Bible verses, song lyrics, or sermon points, in one language (e.g., English) on one screen while simultaneously displaying a translated version (e.g., Spanish) on another screen. This ensures an inclusive worship experience, making it easier for multilingual audiences to engage and follow along without language barriers.

If your church wants to enhance engagement, improve worship coordination, and create a more professional live stream, SideSlide is the ultimate tool to make it happen.

Why Churches Love SideSlide:

Multi-Screen Content Display – Show lyrics, visuals, and sermon points simultaneously.

Confidence Monitors for Worship Teams & Pastors – Keep everyone on the same page.

Enhanced Live Streaming – Send a professional-quality feed with clean overlays.

Seamless Worship & Sermon Presentations – Deliver visually appealing, engaging messages.
