It’s time to inspire your graduates and your congregation. Here a few tips to keep that graduation slideshow from getting away from you.

  • Keep the whole slideshow between 5-6 minutes max (you can go less)
  • Choose fun pictures everyone would enjoy not just inside joke pics.
  • Choose spiritual pics as well. Show the growth of your grads and not just the fun they had all year.
  • Don’t let parents run you over, stick to that 5-6 pic limit of their darlings. It’s graduation not a memorial.
  • Think message not media. Choose the best songs because of the message not just the beat.
  • Speaking of the beat, don’t choose anything that could give the older members of your church a heart attack.

That’s it. Now, choose the best music and you’re on your way.
