📡 The Stream Your Congregation Actually Sees: Garry B. Jr. on FreeShow, OBS and Worship Streaming
A Conversation with Garry B. Jr., Media Consultant and FreeShow Trainer, on House of Worship Streaming
Every Sunday, Two Audiences Are Watching the Same Service
One of them is in the room. The other is at home, in a hospital bed, or three time zones away, and all they get is whatever the stream decides to show them. Serving both at once is the job, and it is a genuinely hard one. This week Tony sits down with someone who trains churches to do it properly.
Wednesday, August 26, 2026 8:00 – 9:00 PM ET Live at conversationswithtonymobley.com
Who Is Garry B. Jr.
Garry is a media consultant and a FreeShow trainer. That second part matters more than it sounds. FreeShow is free, open-source presentation software built for worship, and OBS is the free, open-source software most of the streaming world runs on. Between them they cost nothing, which is exactly why so many congregations end up using them without anyone ever showing them how.
Garry is the person who shows them how.
Why This Conversation, and Why Now
Almost every house of worship streams something these days. Very few of them planned to. The stream started as an emergency measure, the volunteer who set it up has since moved away, and what is left is a laptop nobody wants to touch and a Sunday morning that works right up until it does not.
Meanwhile the tools have quietly become excellent. The gap is no longer budget or software. It is knowing how the pieces fit together, which is the sort of thing that takes an afternoon to learn and years to work out on your own.
What We Expect to Explore
FreeShow and OBS, Side by Side
- What each one is actually for, and where the line between them sits
- Why OBS on its own gets you a stream but not a service
- What changes the day you put the two of them together
Serving the Room and the Stream at Once
- Lyrics, scripture and slides, and who should be seeing which
- The stage display, and what the people at the front need in front of them
- Building a service that does not need someone improvising at the desk
Running It With the Team You Have
- Setting things up so a volunteer can run Sunday without a rehearsal
- What to write down, and what to automate so nobody has to remember it
- The failures that happen most often, and how to be ready for them
Platforms, and Where the Stream Goes
- Streaming to more than one place without doubling the work
- What to keep on your own site and what to hand to the platforms
- Where spending money genuinely helps, and where free is simply better
Who This Conversation Is For
If you run the media desk at your church, if you are the volunteer who got handed the laptop, if you are a pastor wondering why the stream looks the way it does, or if you produce for any organisation that has to serve a room and a camera at the same time, this one is for you.
You do not need to know what FreeShow is to follow along. Bring the thing that has been annoying you since March.
