Can we show videos from video-sharing websites during our services and church activities?

You should always ensure you have permission to use copyrighted material in church, regardless of the source.

The Church Video License® grants permission to publicly display authorized content otherwise intended for private, personal use only. This means you can display any video which is covered by your license provided you are showing it from an official channel or legally-obtained source.

The CCLI Church Copyright License® and CCLI Streaming Plus License™ do not cover the visual element of a song video. Therefore, regardless of the source, we recommend you have direct permission from the owner before displaying a song or lyric video in church.
