About this episode
The episode explores thriving in church production and creative ministry, focusing on leadership, team dynamics, and achieving excellence.
In Episode 6, the BlackBox crew dives deep into what it really takes to thrive in church production and creative ministry. We kick things off with a sneak peek at Service Reviews, launching this July—your chance to get honest, high-level feedback from the best in the game (sign-ups open soon!). Then Shep breaks down his time at the Army 250 event and what it teaches us about leadership, pressure, and team dynamics under real weight. We also hit the practical stuff:– How do you land the kind of gigs people dream about?– What makes someone a great team member in tech and worship environments?– Why excellence isn’t just about perfection—and what pet peeves might be holding you back. This one’s for church tech directors, FOH engineers, creatives, worship leaders, and AVL volunteers who are chasing high standards without burning out. Whether you're mixing, designing, producing, or leading—Episode 6 is packed with raw takes, real stories, and reminders that we’re all growing. Subscribe now and share with your team. Let’s raise the bar together.
