Well, I can think of several things where multiple projectors with separate video controls would help:
Kids Kamp (or VBS for you older generation) has kids move with song words - the secondary monitor would be used for the stage leaders to see the moves while the sanctuary projector would be projecting the song words for the congregation. Of course, keeping the songs video and the moves video in sync would be icing on the cake :) I visited a church once that had church projector showing the song words, and a second projector viewable by the stage leaders that also included next slide information so they had a heads-up as to what was coming next. Forgot what software they were using.
