High Tech Ministries is a nonprofit organization that leads people into a life-changing relationship with Jesus Christ. They create business environments where people can explore faith. Their annual High Tech Prayer Breakfast is the largest invitation-only networking event in the Southeast, where faith and business meet. Since 2017, vLink Solutions has proudly partnered with High Tech Ministries, creating all types of videos from fun and impactful intro videos to capturing their Blitz Through the Bible event.
In 2018, vLink Solutions was asked to produce an intro video for the High Tech Prayer Breakfast. High Tech Ministries wanted something engaging and fun, yet informative—a way to make attendees feel comfortable while also giving them practical tips on navigating the event.
Our solution? Feature the ministry’s table hosts from the tech community, welcoming guests and offering lighthearted instructions on event details like finding seats, restrooms, and networking tips. The result? A hit! Attendees loved seeing familiar faces in a new light, setting the perfect tone for the day. Take a look at what we came up with:
“Mike Morris, President of High Tech Ministries says, ““Working with the vLink team to help us create excellent video content is a joy and a blessing. They really capture the essence of the ministry. The intro videos are always fun and help us to create the ‘feel, reveal, and invite’ flow of our annual prayer breakfast.”
For the 2023 video, we decided to have fun with AI, which was making waves in tech. This was tied to the breakfast theme of Embracing Change. We created a playful back-and-forth conversation between a human and an AI chatbot to explain the event and tease who might really be in control—AI or human? The crowd loved it! It captured the balance between faith, tech, and leadership, and kept attendees entertained while delivering the key event details with a timely, modern twist that resonated with the audience. Check out the 2023 intro video:
We decided to shake things up in 2024. This year’s theme? Finding your path. The video showcased volunteers stepping into adventurous new activities—like yoga, mountain climbing, and skydiving—as they explored different ways of discovering a new path. These humorous but thought-provoking scenes highlighted how trying new things can help you find direction in both life and faith, delivering an inspiring message that resonated with the audience.
The result is a humorous but motivational kickoff video that has everyone laughing while still driving home an important message: growth happens when you’re willing to step into the unknown. It’s fun, memorable, and delivers a message that resonates with both business and personal faith. See how we did it here:
We’re incredibly proud of our ongoing partnership with High Tech Ministries. Over the years, we’ve created videos that not only entertain but inspire, helping them spread their mission to even more people. Each year’s project builds on the last, with fresh ideas and a creative spin that keeps attendees engaged and excited for what’s next.
From the playful intro videos to the highlight reels, it’s been an incredible journey. We’re excited to be part of such an amazing ministry!
