Logo Needed for a Modern Online Church

iKirken.no

Norea Media Mission is a Christian missions organization that has produced radio programs for Norwegians since 1956, and later also television programs. Today we support missions projects on 4 continents, in more than 30 languages, and all of it is non-profit. Our major new initiative in Norway will be a cross-denominational, modern Online Church based on the same model as LifeChurch.tv’s Online Church in USA (http://www.lifechurch.tv/). This entails several online experiences every week. Our new Online Church will have its own brand. It will be a cross-denominational Online Church for Norwegians worldwide, and not be tied to a specific local church.

Words that describe the contents of our new Online Church and how we want to be perceived are (not in priority order): Modern, serious, open, inclusive, connecting people, reflective, encouraging, inspiring, confidence-inspiring, motivating, supportive, understanding, powerful, visual, simple…

…and not an orthodox, old, weird group.

Our vision (and slogan) is to give people hope for life and eternity.

Slogan: ”Håp for livet og evigheten” (Translation: Hope for life and eternity)

Young modern/urban Norwegians worldwide, between 20 and 39 years who seeks God and the meaning for life.

We believe that the URL will be important to market. It is therefore important that a logo includes our web address iKirken.no as an important element (or maybe the main logo?). However, it may be difficult to use only iKirken.no (Translation: inChurch.no) as a logo, for example, when it comes to creating small squared buttons. Then we’ll also need a symbol (logo) representing iKirken.no.

Logos we like:
You’ll find a lot of modern church logos on the PowerPointSermons.com’s Logo Portofolio: http://www.powerpointsermons.com/?p…searchlogo

Here are a few other things to think about:
1. The logo should have variations with and without text:
INTERNETTKIRKEN (Translation: The INTERNET CHURCH, with smaller letters, as an explanation to the main text)
iKirken.no (main text and the name of the new Online Church. The name will also be our web address.)
“iKirken.no” and “INTERNETTKIRKEN” can be placed in the order you find the best.

2. The logo may be used in several ways, with and without text.
- On our new website, As (animated?) vignettes on TV, On roll-ups, As square marks (like buttons on an iPhone or a Twitter avatar.)

Please feel free to experiment with colors!
