Church worship and tech teams often lean on the same few experienced volunteers while new recruits struggle to get up to speed. MxU is a platform built for those teams, combining structured training, team communication, and live service tools in one place, and it is trusted by 6,000+ churches.^1
The training library carries more than 1,000 video lessons covering audio, video, lighting, worship leading, and vocals.^1 Leaders build automated training pathways with course quizzes, mix in their own uploaded videos and documents, and track each volunteer's progress.^1 Team tools add messaging, tasks and checklists, and a shared home for documents and procedures such as stage plots and setup guides.^1 On Sunday, live dashboards follow the Planning Center service order with timers, ProPresenter slide control, mic and gear assignments, and live sound-level monitoring, and service analytics are captured automatically.^1
MxU connects with the church production stack through native integrations including Planning Center, ProPresenter, YouTube, Resi, Smaart, ProdCom, Facebook, Rock RMS, Zapier, Sennheiser, and Shure.^3 Volunteers use the mobile app on iOS and Android to train, read messages, and check assignments from their phones.^2 MxU is subscription-based, with plan details on its pricing page.^2 Outside the subscription, MxU publishes a free resource library of guides, checklists, and templates, plus an active podcast for worship and tech teams.^4
MxU exists, in its own words, "to see people experience the presence of God through worship in the local church."^6 CEO Spencer De Young grounds that mission in Psalm 33:3, "Sing to him a new song; play skillfully, and shout for joy," and frames skill in worship and tech ministry as something the gospel calls teams to pursue with excellence.^6 Co-founders Jeff Sandstrom and Lee Fields have led MxU workshops for church production teams internationally, including a live production masterclass in Pretoria, South Africa, that drew more than 200 attendees.^7
"MxU is the backbone of our training, helping us scale hundreds of volunteers across multiple locations." - Dylan Hofmann, Christ Fellowship Church^2
"New audio volunteers can fly solo in weeks because training is structured and repeatable instead of shadowing and hoping they figure it out." - Dave Bookhout^3
