Why Your Church Website Should Cost More than $100

Read the First Comment

Probably a lot more! You probably should know that this article is inspired by three different interactions. One, reading Niki Brown’s article, Why Logos Should Cost More Than $300.

7 Comments to Read

bad-church-logo

I like logos, and I certainly like church. I design church logos, in fact. So as I’ve sought inspiration by looking at other church logos, I’ve run across a lot of church “logos” about which I’d have to say, Jesus would not do this!

23 Unique Sources of Creative Inspiration

6 Comments to Read

I subscribe to a whole lot of feeds! In fact, I try to read feeds across a variety of disciplines aside from pastoral ministry and web/graphic design. This is because I don’t just value resources and links that give me some ready-to-apply technique or tool. I value a larger spectrum of creativity in art, music, decorating, etc. I wanted to pass along some of the blogs I keep track of that may seem to have little to do with my primary interests, but they help me to see how people think and relate and visualize things. I thought you might like them too… Read the rest of this article »

5 Comments to Read

In case you hadn’t noticed or it’s your first time here, I just re-designed this site for about the fifth time in two years.

Do Something that Matters

5 Comments to Read

One of my favorite movie lines was uttered by Ben Affleck in Pearl Harbor. His character, Capt. Rafe McCawley, travels to London before Hawaii was attaked so that he could fly with the British Royal Air Force. When he lands, his new commanding officer asks, “Why is it so many of you young Americans are so eager to die?” McCawley responds, “I’m not eager to die sir, I’m just eager to matter.”

That sums up my life. Read the rest of this article »
