It’s always amusing to see some folks still using PowerPoint to project song lyrics during worship.
I mean it’s such a painfully inefficient way of doing things—especially when there are so many superior and free church presentation software that take just a few clicks to setup and get going.
If you want a PowerPoint alternative or simply want to learn more about the best church presentation software available for free to support your worship services, you should read this article.
A screen displaying lyrics and Bible texts is more or less replacing printed material at most places of worship. Depending on how it is used, the screen can be a purposeful aid or an unfortunate distraction.
Choosing the right church software to run your slides is therefore an important decision to support the worship environment.
If you’re on a tight budget, here are a number of free worship software in no particular order that offer a variety of features to suit your church presentation needs.
13 of the best free presentation software for easy worship in your church
1. OpenLP
One of the most popular open source worship presentation program out there, OpenLP packs a ton of features for managing and displaying songs, Bible verses, images, videos (not video backgrounds though) and more.
It facilitates custom alerts, Bible import through CSV files, CCLI/SongSelect integration, PowerPoint file import etc.
Managing worship songs
- OpenLP can import songs from a wide variety of sources like Easyslides, Opensong, Videopsalm, Zionworx, DreamBeam, MediaShout etc.

- A quick song search is also available
Managing Bible verses
- Bibles can be imported from OSIS by the CrossWire Bible Society, any CSV file, OpenSong, Zefania etc.

Media
- OpenLP integrates with one of the most popular open source media player of our times: VLC!
- This means you can use almost any video / audio file format in OpenLP that is compatible with VLC
- Slides and templates
- OpenLP can be used to set up custom liturgies/set lists as per your church’s needs
- Announcements, alerts or custom slides are also possible—custom slides can also be looped if required

- Support for video background is under development. However, you can use a transparent theme as a workaround for now until this feature rolls out
Extra cool features
- OpenLP also has a FREE Android remote app to control the presentation from anywhere inside your church using an Android device—as far as I know, this is a first of its kind app!

It may not have all kinds of bells and whistles when it comes to features, but it does just enough to meet the most important church projection software requirements.

Managing Bible verses
- OpenSong’s website hosts a wide variety of Bibles that you can download for free and import into your system.

Media

I appreciate the good work doing to help spread the Gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ. Thanks so much. Please help with the various websites to get downloads for my church.

Hi all,
Looking for a software that can be run directly from touch on a MS Surface Go2 10″ screen.
Installed Open LP but lots of RMB required. Icons just too small on this screen.
Cheers – Paul in NZ
April 19, 2021 @ 4:32 am
Sorry, not aware of a software for that specific requirement.
July 20, 2022 @ 9:00 pm
Hello,
We used MediaShout in my previous parish.
When one of our volunteer projectionists could not be there, we used an IPad 9.7 to remotely control the video.
It was a bit small. An IPad Pro is preferable. We used the IPad Pro 12′ as well.
Since MediaShout is both available in Windows and MacOS, there never was any problem controlling the program remotely, without physically using the “projection booth” (where the control computer is located).
I don’t know about the other programs but I think it should be possible with any other program, since we did it using Teamviewer which is a program allowing you to use any computer on your network in remote.

Thank you for your help
March 25, 2018 @ 3:41 pm

Good suggestion Peter, will try to get it done.

Another option worth mentioning is Big Screen. It is cloud based and works in your browser. You can read more about it here: https://bigscreen.show

We are looking for a program that you do not need an internet connection to use. Can you help us out?
September 25, 2018 @ 4:56 am
Almost all of these programs don’t need an Internet connection to work.
October 24, 2018 @ 3:44 am
I still fall back to PowerPoint. I have tried various other products, and while they can do some creative and different things, they all seem to be unable to do some essential thing. One of my main gripes is that many of them cannot do the simple task of displaying a verse with a section of it in a different color for emphasis. In the end, it is just easier and quicker to create my songs and sermon verses in PowerPoint. No CCLI plugin, but I have many songs already created and ready to go anyway. Why reinvent the wheel?
January 26, 2019 @ 3:34 pm
Just thought I’d point out that VideoPsalm can do this. Once you select your Verse(s) and add them to your agenda, you can right click them to convert them into an editable format in which you can do colors, fonts, and all kinds of things.
February 23, 2019 @ 6:20 pm
Exactly what I need too. People don’t want to see the bible verse by verse, a highlighted verse is way better.
January 26, 2019 @ 3:30 pm
VideoPsalm is an awesome piece of software. As a fledgling church, we were looking for presentation software that was free since we had no budget. I tried a few different ones but ended up with VideoPsalm. There is a learning curve to get started but once you get the hang of it, it’s incredibly easy to use. I can’t think of a feature I’ve needed that it couldn’t do. Video background, song imports, multiple import formats (PPT, PDF, etc), and more. Support is also great. I’ve emailed the author a few times and always get a prompt response. If you’re looking for church presentation software, even if you have a huge budget, check out VideoPsalm and you’ll love it.
June 12, 2019 @ 10:25 pm

Is this video mapping software that will allow you to project custom animation?
March 26, 2019 @ 4:36 am
If you choose a video compatible software, you can project just about any video file.
May 20, 2019 @ 8:27 am
Well done. I am currently spearheading our media team in church and we recently bought a video camera.
I would like to know if there is any software that i can connect the camera to the computer so it can be projected.
Would appreciate your feedback.
Thanks

Hi, we have been using Mediashout 3.5 for about 10 years, all of a sudden it just stopped working. The new version won’t run on this old computer, and when I installed on my own newer, the program is so completely different I cant comprehend myself having time to learn it, and then teach a bunch of student volunteers.
Our needs are very simple. ALL of our songs and readings are already in MS Word .doc files. We don’t use any published songbooks or bibles, no video, no audio, no pdf, nothing. I only need a program that can handle matching the pages already set up in the .doc file (text is 48 pt) and populate it onto multiple slides. That’s it. Old mediashout did that just fine. New mediashout has way more features than we will ever use, and I just don’t have time to learn it.
I just tried VideoPsalm, and although it appears it should be able to do that, it doesn’t. Before I try the other 12 on the list, if anyone knows one that has just this one function, I would really appreciate it. Thanks.
June 29, 2019 @ 7:50 pm
this was very informative! I knew there had to be options other than PPT. I use Mac OS, so it helps knowing with programs are supported. Thanks for sharing!

OpenSong has some problem with remote control via Android app, so I tried Open LP, but you need to use some openSSL protocol… Seems like I will end up with Quelea. Thanks for tips!
March 29, 2020 @ 6:21 pm
Does any of this accept txt. song files
April 1, 2020 @ 11:51 am
Not sure. But VideoPsalm (and OpenSong too I think) has converters for your existing song library, maybe you could try that.

it’s helpful
July 13, 2020 @ 10:17 pm
Do any of the free software’s listed provide for a separate output to OBS (Open Broadcaster Software) so that Worshipers can see a projected screen with whatever background image is selected, and OBS sees a transparent screen with white text to use as an overlay?

Hello! I read this article with great interest. We are a Reform Jewish congregation in Scottsdale, Arizona, looking to add “presentation software” for our monthly Rock Shabbat and similar services.
