How TheSquad Serves Your Church Staff
Feeling Overwhelmed? According to a 2019 Barna study, 87% of pastors feel too busy to enjoy life. It's no wonder church staff and media teams feel stretched thin and burnt out. With few hands on deck, you and your staff are working longer hours just to keep the wheels turning.
But what if there was a way to lighten the load so you could focus on what really matters - spreading the Gospel and serving your church?
Enter Church Media Squad...
Each of our Squad designers, video editors, and writers have been in your shoes. We've wrestled with impossible deadlines on bulletins, stayed up too late editing videos, and racked our brains trying to engage more youth on social media.
That's why we're on a mission to complement your team with the media expertise and extra capacity you need. With Church Media Squad as an extension of your staff, you can say goodbye to cookie-cutter graphics and last-minute hustles. We'll collaborate with your existing team so you can focus on your strengths and serve your church family like never before.
Just hear what Lyndsey from TheSquad has to say:
“When I was in full-time youth ministry, I needed TheSquad. We had so many graphic needs, but our creative department had very limited capacity. So, we resorted to finding templates and other options online that didn’t really feel like us. I love getting to work at TheSquad now because we get to complement church staff by being a skilled resource to save them time, but still look awesome!”
Each of our Squad Member’s experience on church staff is invaluable in understanding the unique challenges that come with running a church.
We know that every church—big or small—has a powerful message to deliver but often faces resource constraints. Our intimate understanding of these dynamics allows us to offer custom solutions that fit right into your existing church team.
We're not just another media company because we don't just talk the talk; we've walked the walk. That's why we approach every project with a profound respect for the mission and values that drive your little “c” church.
Let’s hear from one of our incredible Project Managers, Marcy:
“We help lighten church’s workloads. Most church staff members are stretched thin, so we help them focus on leading teams rather than spend countless hours creating graphics. I feel like we really are an extension of their staff!”
We exist to make your church media better and empower your staff to focus on what they do best—serving your church and discipling others.
Let's explore how we can lighten your load...

If you can dream it, our Design Squad can design it. We love bringing your ideas to life through creative artwork made just for your church.
With TheSquad handling the heavy lifting on graphics, your team is freed up to focus on strategy, vision casting, and developing your media volunteers. Instead of being hands-on designers, your staff can coach and mentor your creative team members. Together, you'll build a sustainable design process that connects and engages your whole church.
With the Video Squad, you can have engaging videos that truly connect with your church members! Video content is one of the most compelling ways to stir hearts and drive home a particular message to engage your church. But truly impactful videos require substantial time and editing expertise.
That's where our Video Squad comes in. Our Squad of professional editors take your raw footage and transform it into compelling videos that captivate viewers. With our support, your staff is freed up from long editing hours and can fully leverage their skills behind the camera capturing authentic stories.
We’ve edited everything from sermon clips to mini-documentaries highlighting your church members' inspiring faith stories. Our squad delivers videos optimized for social media as well as long-form content for your website and live-streams.
And with unlimited revisions, we'll refine the editing and pacing until you're moved to tears. We know the ability of thoughtful video storytelling to capture hearts for Christ. Let us take your media team's gifts to the next level so your whole church can experience the power of visual media.
With the Communication Squad, effectively communicating with your church community across multiple channels is no longer a huge undertaking. From email newsletters to social media, your communications staff has the monumental task of capturing attention and engagement, but our C-Squad is here to help!
We work hand-in-hand with your existing staff to create cohesive messaging that sounds just like your church. Our team of writers craft customized posts and copy that aligns with your church's voice, events, sermon series, and more.
With TheSquad handling communication tasks like:
Writing newsletters, social posts, and announcement video scripts
Developing social media content calendars and managing posting
Providing creative direction when you're feeling stuck
Coaching your team with monthly calls
Your staff is freed up to focus on strategy, relationships, and execution. No more late nights trying to put together last-minute posts or newsletter drafts. You can put down the laptop and invest that time into your people.
Hear from Coastline Baptist how the C-Squad allowed their staff to find balance during a surge of growth:
"With our media team shrinking, but our church growing this season, we're really leaning into TheSquad's help to continue the momentum of growth we're experiencing!"
For less than the cost of adding a new employee, you gain an entire team supporting your church's communications. Let us complement what your staff already does well so you can serve your church without burnout.
Some might worry that hiring an external team like TheSquad could create tension or redundancy. On the contrary, our primary goal is to collaborate and lift up your existing team's abilities. Think of us as the additional set of hands, eyes, and hearts focused on making sure your media team is as effective as it can be while freeing up your staff to focus on their strengths, core responsibilities, and pouring into volunteers.
