Your 20 clips, explained

Every sermon you upload comes back as 20 short clips. Here's how they're chosen, where each one is meant to go, and how to shape future batches to your taste.

How the 20 clips are chosen

These aren't random cuts or evenly chopped segments. Church Media uses best-moment detection to find the points in your sermon that actually land — a strong line, a clear story, a turn of phrase worth sharing — and builds clips around those.

Two aspect ratios, two homes

Your 20 clips arrive in both orientations so you don't have to reformat anything:

  • Vertical for TikTok, Instagram Reels, and YouTube Shorts.
  • Horizontal for Facebook and Twitter / X.

Post the vertical versions where the feed is full-screen and mobile-first, and the horizontal versions where wide video reads better.

Captions in your brand colors

Every clip is auto-captioned in your brand colors, pulled straight from your brand kit. That keeps a TikTok clip and a Facebook clip looking like they came from the same church — because they did.

When they arrive

Clips are delivered within 12–24 hours of uploading the recording. You'll have the full set of 20 ready to review in one place.

Reject a clip — and it learns

Not every clip will be a keeper, and that's fine. You can reject any clip with a single click. Over time the system learns your taste, so the moments it surfaces lean more toward what you actually post.

Tip

Reject honestly and consistently early on. A handful of deliberate rejections in your first few sermons sharpens every batch that follows.

Still stuck? Let's walk through it together.
