  • Serious Community

    I came into this community, like a new kid at school and I’ve felt nothing but love from the leadership and those who attend the conference, FILO is that time I get to break away and fellowship. The podcast for me keeps me feeling connected in between the time in Chicago.

  • So much practical and spiritual insight

    I love that this is a podcast for church media people that can be a bit nerdy when it comes to gear details, but never neglects the bigger spiritual aspect of cultivating environments of worship for the glory of God.
