Proclaim and Sermon Builder

There was an error rendering this rich post.

I don't care for the way slides are created in sermon builder and prefer to make them directly in Proclaim. Or perhaps I need to learn them better in Sermon Builder. Maybe someday.

If I make my slides directly in Proclaim, is there a way to control them in Sermon Builder?

Simply COPY your slide from whatever program you develop it in (e.g. Proclaim, Powerpoint, Keynote), then click somewhere on the text you want to add it to in Sermon Builder and PASTE. It will upload to Faithlife and your slide will now be in Sermon Builder. (See pic below)

If you are copying from Proclaim you can right click on a pic then COPY AS IMAGE. Then, click somewhere on the text you want to add it to in Sermon Builder and PASTE. It will upload to Faithlife and your slide will now be in Sermon Builder.

I have posted about this previously… The disconnect between the "Media in Logos" and the "Media in Proclaim" needs to be corrected. If I find a graphic in Proclaim that I want to use, many times that same graphic doesn't exist in the Logos media. Therefore, I cannot add that graphic to the sermon itself. So if I go back later to reuse that message from Logos Sermon builder the slides themsleves will not include the actual graphic I used.

However, I understand Proclaim is a "presentation" software and will have more features, which is good, but I wish the "Media" between the two was a little more connected to each other.

You can COPY IMAGE from Proclaim (or whatever program you use) and then PASTE in the Sermon Builder. This is a HUGE time saver. Hope that helps!

@Jackie Watts… No that is a completely different thing that formating the slides of a sermon document. The slides will include different versions for main points, scripture references, &c.

Yes, sometimes I would like a specific image such as a map or picture in my sermon and I will do that, but that's a completely different issue.

@Jackie Watts - would you describe this a little more? What are your basic steps, especially where you paste in to SB.

Jackie - Seems simple, but I am not sure where to copy it FROM in Proclaim. I tried copying and pasting but nothing happened in Sermon Builder. Could you walk me through through it in a bit more detail?
