Want to put a live video of your worship service from Facebook on your website? This will show you how.
Please note that we do not recommend using this tool as a long-term solution for embedding your live stream. (It works great for videos that have already been published!) You might have to update the link after actually going live on Sunday Morning. You might see an error "Video Unavailable" or “This video can't be embedded because it may contain content owned by someone else," and the embed just won't work. There can be intermittent issues while the video is live - sometimes these can be fixed by just refreshing the page. Unfortunately, we have no control over what Facebook does with your video embed, and since they do not offer good documentation or support, it's very difficult to "fix" or troubleshoot anything.
Check out our FAQ on "Which streaming services do you recommend?"
