The Servant King Logo…
is a combination of a Christogram (letters that form an abbreviation for the name of Jesus Christ) and a monogram (overlapping letters that form one symbol). Simple and complex.

The Christogram in our logo is reminiscent of the Chi-Rho (☧), which superimposes the Greek letters chi (Χ) and rho (Ρ), the first two letters of the Greek word for 'Christ’. The Chi-Rho is one of the oldest Christograms, and shares a common lineage with our mother and grandmother churches. Both Grace & Peace and Downtown Presbyterian use versions of the Chi-Rho in their brand identities. The monogram in our logo is a straight-forward ”S-K” for Servant King.

This combination of ancient and modern is intentional. Servant King is a new church plant, but we share a storied history, both locally, and with the church historic. The simplicity of the symbol is intentional as well. We serve the King of the Universe, but he humbled himself in human form to come and meet his people in the flesh. So while the logo is an unvarnished, kingly gold, the form is simple enough that it could be drawn in the sand with a finger, or carved into stone.

The first Christograms and symbols of the early church were like that, too rich meaning and symbolism in the form of something simple enough for a child to draw. As Christ is both servant and king, his church is both a royal priesthood of believers and a humble body saved by grace.
