LEADER'S OIL AWARDS™ TV SHOW


50 MINISTRIES.

10 WINNERS.

10 RUNNER-UPS.

A NATIONAL AUDIENCE.


Ministry Activities that go "beyond the norm" for Jesus Christ!



A New Multi-Episode TV Award Show!


WE ARE LOOKING for someone to represent 50 Ministries. 


Have you been a part of a ministry event, outreach, or any other ministry activity that went BEYOND the norm to touch lives for The Lord? You are doing award-worthy work! Represent your home church or ministry and feature the ministry activity in the upcoming TV Award Show. Ministries do not win because they are larger, but rather because they go beyond the norm to touch lives for Jesus Christ. (I Tim. 5:17)


How to be a part of this TV Award Show:


1) You will need to know the name of the ministry event.

2) You will need to know the name of the ministry that put on the event and the Senior Pastor's name.

3) You will need to know the event location.

4) You will need to know the details of several things that were done before, during, or after the event that clearly show that the planning efforts went beyond the norm, and beyond the usual passive effort, to make a difference for others.

5) You will choose one of the 10 Categories below to submit your ministry event for.

6) There is a $99 Submission Fee to be a part of this TV Award Show (non-refundable).

7) Submissions are accepted from ministries all across the nation, and whoever pays the submission fee first is guaranteed a spot on the Award Show first.


HIGHLY RECOMMENDED:

Sign up below. Answer the initial ministry questions and pay the submission fee. Then come back to fill in any other event details needed. This will secure your spot on the TV Awards Show.



Add AWARD-WINNING Ministry To Your Resume!


We don’t serve Christ for awards, but every year, Pastors and Ministry Leaders burn out and even close down, while grappling with discouragement and feeling underappreciated. 1 Timothy 5:17 says that the ministry leaders who rule well are worthy of DOUBLE HONOR.

A National Platform Spotlighting Christ-centered Events, Projects, and Programs (1 Tim. 5:17).


Judges

All Judges are Ministry Leaders from different geographic locations. They will follow a specific judging rubric to pray and independently score each Event and Ministry Project.


Participating Ministries

Judges score based on the details of the submitted event/project. You cannot win simply because your church is larger.



This is a PRIME MINISTRY EXPOSURE Opportunity

Categories

You may submit a ministry event or project to one or more of the following 10 categories:

  • Evangelistic/Outreach Activity
  • Discipleship/Mentoring Programs
  • Unity In Team Ministry Efforts
  • Pre-Event Ministry Preparation Excellence
  • Post-Event Ministry Continuation Excellence
  • Worship & Performing Arts Ministry
  • Exemplary Pastoral Leadership Impact
  • Phenomenal Media Branding (Digital or Print)
  • Church-owned Business Success Story
  • Most Selfless Gospel Impact

Should I submit to more than one Category? Let's say that I lead an Outreach, and every week we send 10 coordinated teams of two people out into the community. Five of these teams go to Senior Centers, and five of these teams go to hospitals.

This is a dynamic "Outreach Activity". But it is also an excellent display of "Unity In Team Ministry Efforts". It could potentially win an Award in either Category.


Submitting to more than one Category simply increases your opportunity to be recognized as an Award-Winning Ministry.
