Great Top Church Logos
A good logo design is…
Distinctive. Memorable. And timeless.
It is aesthetically pleasing.
It is scalable, looking good while as large as a billboard or as small as a dime. It looks good in color as well as black and white. And it is simple enough that it can be applied to a media spectrum as broad as paper to plastic and t-shirts to websites.
A great church logo in and of itself does not create great church branding. But it does give a church the foundation needed to build a solid brand.
Below are great church logos grouped by year and listed in alphabetical order. They are chosen for the reasons listed above as well as by my subjective opinion. Keep in mind, I am judging only the logo by itself and not the supporting church branding.
