  • Not what it used to be

    This podcast used to be about getting better in your craft in regard to mixing and other technical aspects that many average church techs benefited from greatly. I am sad to see the podcast be reduced to short episodes about leading a worship team. The audience it became known for helping/growing is no longer served.

  • Great information for tech and team!

    I really have enjoyed this podcast over the last several years. The information they share is always valuable, but also they encourage your Spiritual and emotional well being too. I have learned a lot from Jeff and the many hosts and guests.

  • It was about us

    It’s not just skill, it’s about development. It’s not just me, it’s about us; about the whole team. Listen, and listen again. Thanks to Jeff, Andrew and Lee for allowing us to sit in on your conversations—and bringing us into them. Update: since the beginning of 2023, this podcast has become more like an infomercial for various companies. Very disappointing. Would recommend listening up to the end of 2022.

  • Audio Bible

    MXU is my weekly audio Bible. MXU change my Monday to Friday because most podcast episode drop on Monday . MXU gave me strength, encouragement ,knowledge ,information and life experience . Even those I’m not yet pro build my heart to pro.. Whenever I have struggles I refine and listen again some episodes because I have not been that saturation when the first time I listened. Thanks you so much MXU team. May God bless more and more.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Worship Tracks Should Serve Your Team, Not Replace Them
Q: How do we keep our team engaged when we're introducing tracks?
It's important to recognize that the role on stage is more than just the notes we're playing; volunteers should feel their value beyond just playing instruments.
What is Worship?
Q: What are you finding is often the disconnect in these environments?
Many worship leaders struggle with authenticity and tend to imitate popular worship styles instead of leading from their true selves.
#191 - How to Build a Worship Team That’s Ready, Not Just Scheduled
Q: What are some ways to communicate effectively to volunteers when you can only meet during the week?
Using tools like voice memos and over-communication to clarify expectations for rehearsals or performances.
#191 - How to Build a Worship Team That’s Ready, Not Just Scheduled
Q: Why is resourcing even important to begin with?
Resourcing is crucial for preparation and for honoring volunteers, ensuring they’re supported rather than left waiting on staff.
#187 - Stephen Sheppard: Why Your Church Isn't Elevation (And Doesn't Need To Be)
Q: How do you deal with the tension of people constantly hitting you up while also recognizing that you shouldn't do things the way Elevation does them?
I think it's some of that where, I don't know if it's as much as of a tension. I think the tension is more so like trying to help people realize like the thing that we do is not just for us.
