Media Ministry and Leadership with the Discord Certified Pros
The Black Bar podcast dives deep into the heart of Christian creativity and ministry leadership. In this compelling episode, hosts Nick Mayo and Zack Snyder explore the experiences of three dedicated ministry leaders: Abner, Blaze, and John Mark.
These Certified Pros from the Black Bar Discord community share their unique journeys of serving in ministry. Each brings a distinct perspective from their respective roles in church leadership, technical production, and worship ministry.
The conversation centers on what effective ministry leadership truly means. Abner Cruz, a media and technical director, emphasizes empowering volunteers and creating accessible ministry environments. He believes in developing “power users” who go beyond basic task completion.
John Mark Clark highlights the importance of casting vision and remaining flexible. He stresses that church technical ministry is about more than pushing buttons—it’s about facilitating meaningful spiritual experiences.
Blaze introduces the concept of “minimal viable product” in ministry, suggesting that success isn’t about perfection but about being adaptable and Christ-centered. He reminds listeners that Jesus often ministered simply—on mountains, around tables, and through intimate gatherings.
The podcast reveals the Black Bar Discord as a vibrant community for Christian creatives. It offers connection, inspiration, and support for those in vocational ministry and creative pursuits.
