Church Stage

What is the ultimate purpose of a church platform or stage? Is it to inspire? Entertain? Challenge? Or dare we ask...has its role in our worship become "marginally outdated"? As we are in the process of completing our first proper stage as an 11-year-old church, I have been grappling with these very questions...and God led…

Josh Hoppe from Ava Assembly of God in Ava, Missouri brings us this Christmas design. From Josh: This year in the lead up to Christmas we started a series called Follow The Star. Normally we keep a pretty basic stage with a dark grey back wall so we wanted to introduce a little color on stage. Materials […]

Greg Culbertson from Hope City brings us this great LED light tube look-alike design that is super versatile depending on the lighting colors used. From Greg: Seeing many mega churches with the standing light tubes gave me the inspiration for this design. Being a smaller church we couldn’t purchase lights to achieve that look, we […]

Allen Dunn from First City Church in Pensacola, Florida brings us this styrofoam design. Inspired by the MultiDish. They used foam plates and bowls from the Dollar Store to construct a hanging curtain for each side of the projection screen. Low Temp hot melt held the plates together. Each 18 foot tall, 8 foot wide bowl and plate […]

The stars where $12-$15 each. You can’t see them […]

Greg Culbertson from Gethsemane Church in Evansville, IN brings us this stained glass look. Greg was able to use most of his previous design in completing this new design. They spray glued bubble wrap to existing Coroplast followed by gorilla tape stapled to the 2×4 frame.

Mason McGill from Kingdom Empowerment Christian Church in Dover, Delaware brings us this string design. From Mason: Our wonderful team used a compressed board and yarn for the letters for our Just JESUS Backdrop. We already had lighting and each board (once we figured out how to do it) took about a couple of hours. The whole […]

Matt Temple from Church of the Harvest in Olathe, KS brings us these floating diagonal strips. The frames were created using 2x4s, spray painted black. They also added a support 2×4 in the middle of each frame. This was important to give the stripes more structure to be drilled in. The stripes were 1x2s. They […]
