#throwbackthursday feels like a good time to say “thank you”.

FILO 2026 was our biggest FILO yet, but conferences like this are never built by one person or one team. They’re built by a whole community of people saying “yes.”

To everyone who played a part, whether seen or unseen: thank you. You built something pretty special this year.

a little encouraging reminder for your tuesday from @trevorv.media // what you are building matters.

For those who may not know, our founder, Todd Elliott, took years of experience in church production and poured it into a book written specifically for this community.

"I Love Jesus But I Hate Christmas" speaks directly to the people who are usually behind the scenes making ministry happen. The ones troubleshooting problems no one else sees, carrying the weight of weekends, building teams, solving impossible challenges, and serving faithfully long after everyone else has gone home.

This isn’t just a book about surviving Christmas services; it’s about learning how to thrive as a church technical artist all year long.

Heading into summer, this could be an incredible resource for you personally, or something your entire team reads through together. The conversations alone could strengthen your culture, sharpen your leadership, and remind your people that what they do matters more than they think.

Because healthy, encouraged technical artists don’t just make services better. They help make the Church stronger.

FILO.ORG/book

You can leave FILO inspired.
You can leave with pages of notes, new ideas, and a camera roll full of breakout slides.

But eventually, the flight lands, Sunday comes again, the group chat quiets down, and real ministry keeps moving.
That’s why Cohorts exist. Not just to help you grow as a leader, but to make sure you don’t have to grow alone. Every week, you’ll meet with people who actually get it. The pressure. The responsibility. The late nights. The leadership tension. The weight of trying to care deeply without burning out completely.

And somewhere along the way, strangers start feeling like your people.

The conference may be over, but community doesn’t have to be.

If you’ve been needing a place to be challenged, encouraged, sharpened, and known…this is your invitation.

You need community.
We built a place for it.

If you know the smell of a church gym during a lock-in and remember when the youth pastor wheeled in the TV cart… this one’s for you 😭💀

One of the reasons Todd’s book resonates so deeply with church technical artists is because it was written by someone who actually lived it.

The pressure, the calling, the burnout and the excitement of building something meaningful for the local church.

“I Love Jesus But I Hate Christmas” puts words to experiences a lot of church techs have felt for years, but rarely hear talked about out loud. You’ll probably see pieces of your own story in these pages.

FILO 2026 is over. And what a week it was.
It was our largest FILO Conference yet, with Church Technical Artists joining us In-Person and more than 120 countries tuning in through the Live Stream. Breakout rooms filled wall to wall, many standing room only. The Trade Show buzzed from open to close. Conversations spilled into hallways long after sessions ended. And everywhere you looked, there was this unmistakable feeling that something meaningful was happening here.

Not because of production or because of gear. But because this community showed up hungry to grow, lead better, worship deeply, and remind each other we’re not doing this alone.

You spend most weekends helping create meaningful experiences for everyone else. Thank you for letting us create one for you last week. We already miss you.

We’re sharing this again because it still feels true.

The Conference ends, but the re-entry is real; the rooms feel smaller, the team feels quieter, and the responsibility feels heavier.

Different churches, different roles, and different realities are waiting when you walk back in, and somewhere in that quiet, a lot of us find ourselves praying something like this that was shared with us last year.

Just remember: you’re not doing this alone.
Your work for the kingdom matters.

It’s over.
But what happened here doesn’t stay here...it goes with you, and it shows up tomorrow and in the days and weeks that follow.

And if find yourself needing a little encouragement along the way, we’re still right here.
