J. Allen Hendrix

Minister of Technical Arts

Olive Baptist Church

After spending 12 years in the Music Industry as an audio engineer, product development manager, and all-around tech producer, Allen surrendered to full-time ministry in 1998. Twenty-six years later, after serving churches in 3 states and assisting churches in many others, he has returned to the church where he first heard the call. Allen spends as much time on the beautiful sands of Pensacola Beach as he can while leading and shepherding an outstanding team of volunteers between the ages of 15 and 80. He has been married to his Mississippi girl for 31 incredible years and has two grown sons.

Advent can feel like a sprint for Church Technical Artists—long days, tight deadlines, and the pressure to make every service flawless.

But while you’re pouring yourselves out, who’s pouring into you?

This season, we’ll send short, soul-filling encouragements to help you pause, breathe, and refocus on the One this is all about. You’re doing holy work, but you’re not meant to do it on empty. Let this be your reminder to slow down and spend a few quiet moments with Jesus. You need it—and you deserve it.
