They Built a Church in 3 Months

Three months to get their new church building ready. Two pieces of painter’s tape delay the opening. And when Easter rolls around, the LED wall still won’t work. We’re at Heart and Soul Church in Knoxville with worship pastor Tristan Hayes and AJ Rucker, talking about late nights, making old gear work in a new room, and keeping a team together when everybody’s tired. Then AJ tells us about the churches he served before Heart and Soul, the moves that didn’t go as planned, and why he still shows up to serve after all of it. ============================= Table of Contents: ============================= 00:00 On the road at Heart and Soul Church 01:50 Meet Tristan Hayes and AJ Rucker 03:55 The volunteers behind Sunday morning 07:43 Finding out the church has to move 11:32 Three months to get the building ready 15:59 Two pieces of tape delay opening day 17:27 Easter Sunday with no working LED wall 19:58 Making old gear work in a new room 22:47 Keeping the team laughing through long nights 25:59 AJ’s road through ministry 27:08 When the church culture changes 31:02 Leaving when there’s no easy way out 32:51 Moving for a church plant that wasn’t ready 36:05 Finding a new team in Nashville 38:12 When the gear outgrows the church 45:22 When the church closes its doors 46:31 Why AJ still shows up to serve 48:31 You’re not the only one 👉 Learn more about MxU: the All-in-One app for worship & tech teams https://getmxu.com?utm_source=youtube... 💻 See MxU in action: book a demo call https://savvycal.com/mxu-team/MxU-Demo 🆓 Discover free resources https://getmxu.com/resources?utm_sour... 👥 Join the community   / app.mxu     / mxu.app
