Heart of Production
Production is even in our name. We love helping people create spaces through the art of production. But you may be wondering, why? Why do production? What is the point in having flashing lights or cool camera shots? We would love to invite you into our heart of why we do production.
What is
Production?
Production is a team of individuals who work together to create spaces for people to encounter Jesus. This team usually includes: Audio, Video, Lighting, and Music. Of course
We do production because we are called to get the gospel out to all nations. The Great Commission is the driving force behind why we do production. It's a unique way of presenting the gospel and another form of worship. Using gifts and talents taht God has given us to serve Him and serve others.
Why do we do Production?
What are we in Production?
You may not think of it this way, but it's true. In Production, YOU are a worship leader. As you run a camera, put lyrics on the screen, and push buttons on a lighting console, you are leading people in worship. We are tour guides for those who are looking for hope. We help clear a path for others to encounter God. We are door holders in the House of God (Psalm 84:10).
Simple: It matters to God. God cares about everything we do. And when we create spaces for Him to come and dwell in, He most definitely cares about it. People need spaces to encounter Jesus. These spaces are much bigger than ourselves. God expects us to put our best into everything we do. Even in unique venues like these.
Why does
Production matter?
Why does God want you to be a part of it?
God has chosen you to be a part of the work He is doing on the earth. He wants to partner with you to bring the Kingdom of Heaven down to earth. To be a bridge between Heaven and Earth. Not only are you chosen, but God has given you gifts and talents that are to be used to serve God and serve others. Just look at Bezalel and Oholiab in the book of Exodus. God filled them both up with the Holy Spirit and gave them artistic skills and talents to build the Tabernacle and the Ark of the Covenant. Both spaces are where man and God meet. He also invites us to see what He sees as He lets us sit in Heavenly realms (Eph. 2:6).
This standard is actually inspired by the TV show "The Bear". In the show, as one of the main characters is training, you can see a sign that states: "EVERY SECOND COUNTS". We believe that when it comes to production, the same is true. For us, we believe that EVERY DETAIL MATTERS. Every camera shot, every lighting cue hit, every lyric that is put on the screen, the crisp sound of audio, it all matters. Regardless of role, regardless of position, EVERY DETAIL MATTERS. We are called to do our best, and our best is what we will do. Look at the details of the building of the Tabernacle, the Ark of the Covenant, and even the Temple. All the measurements, all the gold, all the people, all the gits ans talents, they all have to work together to create something that honors God.
