Running a church's social media shouldn't require a full-time content team — but for many churches, it feels that way. ChurchSocial (formerly Discipls) is an all-in-one social media management platform built specifically for churches, combining AI-powered content creation with scheduling, graphics, and sermon repurposing tools.^1
At the heart of ChurchSocial is its Sermon Studio — upload a sermon, and the platform automatically transcribes it, identifies key moments, and generates multiple sermon clips with speaker tracking, subtitles, and cropping. From one Sunday message, churches can produce a full week of social content including video clips, quote graphics, carousels, captions, blog drafts, small group guides, and even newsletter content — all in about 20 minutes.^1 The AI caption writer learns your church's voice, so posts sound authentic rather than robotic, and an AI Suggested Posts feature recommends content based on your calendar and past activity. ChurchSocial also includes a Design Studio with AI-assisted graphics and fresh, customizable templates each month, plus a visual calendar for scheduling across Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, TikTok, and X.^1
Founded by Gibson Brueher, a Nashville native who grew up volunteering in kids' ministry and working in church technology, ChurchSocial was born from firsthand experience helping over 100 churches improve their digital presence — and seeing the same problem everywhere: no time, no team, no systems.^3 The platform integrates with Planning Center, Pushpay/Church Community Builder, and Breeze Church Management to sync events and automate content suggestions.^1 A partnership with Churchfluence, led by Danielle Davis, provides bundled social media strategy education and resources alongside the platform.^2
