We Have a Church Name and Logo!

July 31, 2009 in Creativity, GOD, Revolution Church with 50 Comments

Finally, the day has come!

After polling tons of people in the community (and all over the U.S.) we have a church name. We utilized cards and a website, http://www.namethischurch.com to get people’s ideas. I won’t lie, some of the ideas were SUPER bad. We had pre-selected about 5 name choices and most (about 80%) people chose one particluar name off of the list.

That name was REVOLUTION CHURCH.

We are pumped up about the next steps that we will be taking as a church now that we have a name. I think the name fits our area and our vision perfectly.

We also did a fun logo design contest to get a great logo designed. You can read about it here and the winner, Mikal Stevens, here. Here are the final logo choices:

We ABSOULTELY LOVE the icon and the font Mikal used. We are just having a hard time choosing from these three layouts. Which would you go with? Why? Be sure to reference the number when commenting.

What’s the Difference?

I visited Experience Life Church with some of our launch team members this past Sunday. Experience Life has an incredible story…just 18 months ago they were one family and today over 1600 people attend worship each weekend in a skating rink! While we were there, E-Life baptized over 100 people in ONE DAY! WOW!

God is doing some incredible stuff through pastor Chris Galanos and his team.

During my time there I was reminded of something I heard recently because of the environment, the volunteers, and the creativity I saw at Experience Life.

The ONLY difference between a non-Christian and a Christian is JESUS…that’s IT!!! If we lose sight of that–we lose sight of what He REALLY did for us on the cross!

God, please never let me or our team lose sight of what You did for us on the cross. Its only because of Jesus that we get to experience life!
