Brand Identities That Grow
With Your Business.

We just got a dog, and I wanted to make something that captured not just what she looks like, but what it feels like to have her here. So I made a collage—layered, symbolic, emotional rather than literal. And then I realized: this is the prompt. This week, I'm asking you to create a collage about your pet (or something else you love). I went first and I'm sharing my process, so you can see exactly what this looks like. No fancy skills required. Just scissors, glue, and a willingness to translate feeling into form.

You're planting a church, rebranding a ministry, or launching something new — and somewhere in the middle of it all, you're staring at a logo that doesn't feel right. Here's the truth: a weak visual identity isn't just an aesthetic problem. It's a mission problem. The good news? Modern design and sacred weight aren't opposites. Here's how to hold both.

Before you open Illustrator this Monday, try something different: walk to your kitchen and look at what's already there. Coffee beans. Lemon slices. Rosemary sprigs. Now imagine building a word—not with pixels, but with your hands. This week's prompt is about reconnecting with tactile design, trusting your instincts, and remembering that creativity existed long before screens did. Choose one meaningful word. Form it with food or natural materials. Photograph it. And notice what shifts when you stop performing and start creating.
