Helpful Tool vs. Produced Show

There is a tough balance between trying to help a congregation enter into worship and get the most out of a sermon and a production that potentially helps feed the idea of consumerism and entertainment. I think this is a struggle for many churches with some erring on one side and some on the other. We at Crosswater are currently trying to figure out what we should do. Do we keep the current PowerPoint system which has several inherent issues, or do we upgrade to something else.

We are currently evaluating some different options and I was recently made aware of one called Proclaim that we will hopefully be able to evaluate soon.

Please let me know what you think. Do things like motion backgrounds, seamlessly integrated videos and just a nicer overall look and feel help you enter in to worship and get more out of the sermon or are all of those things unnecessary?
