A Delivery System That Amplifies Worship

I received an email recently and quickly developed the newest twitch in my left eye: It read, “NRB, 600 words, deadline 8/5.” Those are words that people like me love to hate, yet can't resist. I run three small companies, and I'm writing two voluminous workbooks and a devotional for a best selling author. It too has a deadline.

Yet I immediately knew what I wanted to offer to help you contribute to the success of your ministry. Notice that I didn't say media ministry, but ministry itself. I've grown to see media and ministry so intertwined that I often think of them as one. From years of experience, it also appears that the ministries most successful in communicating their message to a wide audience also see them as one.

I assume you fall within the demographic that believes media is an integral part of your calling. So, I'm going to mention things that not only help you succeed with the production of your newest DVD, CD, book, newsletter, radio or TV show, but also with the core of your ministry itself. Here are some of the basics that successful people have in common:

First, the secret lies with the client. These people know who they are and where God wants them to go. I know that's obvious, but you would be amazed at how many people, who, after being asked a few pointed questions, realize they've been doing ministry or business for years but don't really know who they are or even what they are really doing. People often call me and say something like: “Holt, I am tired of having mediocre success. I want to focus on what God really wants me doing but I am not sure what that is. Can you help me identify it and help me be that person?” Bingo, that person's got it! The work is just begun, but the path is now clear.

Successful people know their own message well. Then, like good politicians, they stay on that message no matter what.

Successful people are also passionate and downright ferocious about getting their message to as many people as possible by all Biblical means possible. They realize that they are message driven and they communicate their message via top-flight, high quality products and new channels of distribution.

Next, most are connected. They don't go it alone, but form advisory boards, use consultants, etc., to help with production, marketing, and management.

Finally, the most successful hold that success loosely, realizing that God gives and God takes away. The fame or fortune that may come with mass communication must be handled with care. Think Ananias and Sapphira, or Nadab and Abihu.

I pray these thoughts will help you on your journey!
