What if the biggest problem with your church’s tech ministry

has nothing to do with technology?

Churches spend thousands—sometimes millions—of dollars upgrading audio, video, and lighting systems. But what happens when the equipment is great, yet the team behind it is struggling? Can better gear really fix poor communication, a lack of trust, or an unhealthy culture?

In Episode 99 of The Tech Arts Podcast, host David Leuschner sits down with Mike Dias, a 20-year pro audio industry veteran, to tackle one of the most overlooked challenges in church production: building a team and culture where people thrive.

Mike challenges the way we think about technology, leadership, and relationships. One powerful takeaway? Technology should support the mission, not become the mission. But putting that philosophy into practice isn't always easy.

What does a truly healthy tech culture look like? How do you turn a group of volunteers into a high-performing team? Why do some teams consistently deliver excellence while others struggle despite having the latest equipment? And what is Mike's concept of the "Infinite Team"—and how could it

completely change the way you lead?

David and Mike dive into these questions and more, sharing real-world experiences, challenging conventional thinking, and exploring some surprising truths about leadership, accountability, trust, and the power of relationships.

Whether you're a technical director, worship leader, volunteer, or church leader, this conversation may challenge everything you thought you knew

about building a successful tech ministry.

Because at the end of the day, the most valuable thing in your tech booth isn't the equipment. It's the people behind it.
