 Check out just two of Father Matthew’s various clips. Holy Baptism: Father Matthew Presents the Sacraments is the first of an eight-part series the video-evangelist has published on the sacraments. “One of the things the Church does best. Making God’s love visible and tangible,” Moretz described.
In another direction, Moretz attempts to clarify the Church’s view toward Mary Magdalene in Father Matthew Presents: Mary Magdalene (Episcopal).
From these two samples, one can easily navigate to a voluminous collection of Father Matthew videos that make you think, make you laugh, and help you hold onto your faith in a time when everything appears up for grabs.
The Record announces video addition to Church Newsletter Contest
The Record announces an addition to its annual Church Newsletter Contest. The Record will award a Blue Ribbon award at the annual Diocesan Convention AND a prize of $100 to the best YouTube video produced by an Episcopalian in the Diocese of Michigan.
Requirements: The YouTube video must demonstrate some aspect of life in the church: humorous commentary; mission trip; beliefs and practices, etc. The video must be posted on YouTube before October 1. Posted videos must fully adhere to the YouTube copyright provisions, including the prohibition of any video segments, music soundtracks (even if the music includes their choir singing a copyrighted anthem or song) or other materials which already have copyright protection.
Not required, but a suggestion: Adhere to the example of Father Matthew and many YouTube enthusiasts. Keep it short! YouTube is not a forum best used for length sermons or services, but rather pithy commentaries on church and society. Enter any entry you wish (limit: two videos per person); the judging will be conducted by a panel of experts.
Inform The Record when and where it is posted and its creator.
