How To Make Any Medium Sized Church Appear To Be a
Mega Church

Firstly let's discuss what makes a church a successful church before we get into any stage lighting tips. So, it's clear that a wide variety of ages of your members is a key benefit. Too many old or too many young church goers is not going to work in the long run. You need a healthy mix of all ages to be successful over the coming days, months and years. Next, and it kind of ties in with this, is make sure your preacher is young and energetic, as it's important to appeal to the younger generation too. Who wants to go to church and be bored with some badly lit, old preacher in front of you?


So the biggest tip I'm going to teach you to have a really successful church that thrives in the local community is to make sure you get the church stage lighting spot on. By this I'm not saying it's necessary to make a massive laser show reminiscent of a nightclub. No, what I mean is make sure it's very well lit and with modern style that contributes to the quality décor of the church. There is an element of getting this tastefulness in your stage lighting right to portray the right mood and ambience in your church. It's very important for example to get the main speaker or preacher very well lit, this will make sure that everyone's eyes are engaged in the focal point of the church stage. And guess what, if you get this right, your guests will come back again next week and the week after. Which will in turn, make for a successful church.


I'll tell you a quick stage lights story. There was once a minister that was preaching against the backdrop of a stage that was fairly simply backlit. However, this particular pastor's face was darkly lit, it looked terrible! Shadows everywhere accentuated the shape of his skull and actually looked ghostly. You know those dark shadows that are unfortunately cast which made him look as if he'd been partying all weekend. Obviously this is not the look that the church is going for. Needless to say, when I drove by recently the church was empty. How can you correct this with excellent church stage lighting then? The answer is quite simple actually - You need to use nice soft lights that can be either on the floor or up above. What this will do is make sure that the speaker's face is nicely illuminated at all time and doesn't cast those awful shadows.
