Logo Design Brief
It's a system for training new Christians in the basics, and a tool to share and train others. Like a course they take with a friend or leader. It should instantly communicate the concept of 'Christian discipleship' and 'tools', and a 'repeating cycle'/ reproduction. This resource will be shared and used across Europe and South America.
One key image is the Christian Fish, (oldest symbol of making disciples) but we are open to fresh new ideas. We would love to see a creative image that incorporates the fish (or cross) somehow together with tools, (could be a wrench, or gears/cogs). Really like the graphics technique of making the image with white space (white silhouette). We would love a logo that captures these concepts into one image. Very disappointed with computer generated 'clip art' -- seems flat and generic. The content will be translated, but the logo will be used cross-culturally. The idea is that this is a resource that is reproducible and will be shared, copied and given away. We are open a creative image concept that incorporates the concepts into the words, or letters but it doesn't have to.
Open to different color schemes, but blue works well as background for Fish (water) or Cross (sky). When someone sees the final image alone, they should think 'tools' and 'Christian Discipleship'. 'Discipleship' is one line and 'Tool kit' on another line, below.

Project Deadline Extended
Reason: We have a small team who are part of the process and we are located in 4 different time zones. Europe, USA and Canada, and they need a chance to see the entries, choose the top 3 and suggest revisions. We know artists do better when they are not under a tight time crunch. ;-)

Requirements
Must have
- Final project should convey "Tools" and Christian Discipleship (practical resources for Christians) It should have creativity -- beyond the typical 'cut and paste' approach of simply overlapping stock or vector images.
Nice to have
- It would be nice to have a color logo, two or three max, that uses the negative white space to incorporate the concepts of tools and Discipleship. It would be great to have a logo that looks clear when copied in grayscale or black and white.
