Between Takes - 2026 Gatherings

In August, Between Takes continued to be a place for meaningful conversation, prayer, and brotherhood. Gathering on Saturday morning gave us space to slow down and check in with one another, reflecting on both the personal and professional seasons we are currently walking through.

There was a spirit of openness as men shared what they were learning, where they were being challenged, and where they needed encouragement. We were reminded again of the importance of staying connected to God and to one another, especially in an industry that can often feel isolating. It was a good morning of fellowship and a chance to strengthen the relationships that make this community what it is.

July’s Between Takes gathering gave us another opportunity to step away from the busyness of work and simply be present with one another. We spent the morning talking honestly about the challenges, opportunities, and questions that come with working in entertainment while seeking to remain faithful to Christ.

The conversation brought plenty of wisdom and perspective as men shared from their own experiences and encouraged one another. Our time together was a reminder of the value of having a community where we can be known, speak honestly, and continue growing in faith alongside one another.

In June, Between Takes continued creating space for men working in entertainment to gather as brothers, reconnect, and encourage one another in faith. Our Saturday morning time centered on honest conversation about where we are in life and work, with space to reflect on what God is doing and where we need His guidance.

As we shared openly with one another, there was a strong sense of camaraderie and support. It was a meaningful reminder that following Jesus in the entertainment industry is not something we are meant to do in isolation, but alongside brothers who can pray with us, challenge us, and walk with us through every season.

In May, we spent time reconnecting, praying for one another, and seeking the Lord together as a community of men working in entertainment. The evening provided an opportunity to slow down, reflect on God’s faithfulness, and encourage one another to remain grounded in Christ amid the demands and pressures of the industry.

The conversation was thoughtful and life-giving, with men sharing insights, experiences, and practical ways they have seen God at work in their lives. It was a meaningful reminder of the importance of brotherhood, accountability, and making space for God to meet us right where we are.

In April, we continued gathering together as brothers in Christ, creating space for honest conversation, prayer, and encouragement in the midst of the unique challenges of the entertainment industry. As always, our time centered on Scripture and what it looks like to follow Jesus faithfully in both our personal and professional lives.

The discussion was marked by openness and authenticity as men shared victories, struggles, and prayer needs. It was encouraging to see relationships deepen and to witness the strength that comes from walking alongside one another in faith. We left reminded that none of us are meant to navigate this journey alone.

In March, we continued leaning into the theme of the Father’s love, and it was clear the Lord still had more to say. We spent time in 1 Peter 2:5, talking about what it means to be living stones being built into a spiritual house, and it led to a powerful and wide-ranging discussion.

We also spent time in the story of the prodigal son, reflecting on where each of us might find ourselves—on the way home, in the house, or outside striving. It opened up a deep and honest conversation, and there was a real sense of the Lord ministering to each person in a personal way.

In February, we had two really meaningful gatherings. Early in the month, we talked about what it looks like to “hit a wall”—something that can feel especially real after starting the year with high hopes that don’t always go as planned. We spent time in Romans 5:3–5 and had an incredible conversation around how suffering produces hope. One of the questions that stood out most was, “What’s the harvest that awaits you on the other side of your perseverance?”—and it opened the door for some really honest and encouraging shares.

Later in the month, the focus shifted to the Father’s heart. It was a deeply meaningful night as we spent time in Ephesians 1:3–5, talking about sonship and how vital that is, especially in Hollywood. There was a strong sense of the Lord’s presence as stories were shared and walls came down. The idea of Hollywood as a “terrible stepfather” really resonated, and it became one of those gatherings where you could feel how much the Lord was encouraging each person in His love. It was a powerful time together and one that left everyone feeling strengthened and seen.
