SBC Brand Logo

Faithful to who Southern Baptists are.

The SBC logo is the foundation of our brand identity. It consists of the logo mark and the logotype. The new mark reinvents familiar elements from the original SBC logo while staying true to its identifiable misson; spreading the gospel to the world with scripture as the foundation. The classic logo is also available for those who wish to use it.

There are a variety of logo variations that are available to use as well as instructions on the best way to use them. Each logo file download includes files for print and digital use in various file formats.

Marks

The logo mark can be used as a standalone symbol to represent the SBC. Only use when it is clear that the application is SBC related. Rely on using the primary, solid, mark but the secondary, outlined version can be used when needed.

Downloads include a zipped file with individual logo files in RGB for digital use and CYMK and PMS for print use. Each logo is provided in AI, EPS, JPG, PNG, and PDF.

Clear Space

Clear space is the minimum amount of extra blank space you need to leave around the logo to ensure its visibility and readability in relation to other elements around it. The clear space should be equal to width of the Bible when pulled directly from the mark at the size you’d like to display it.

Incorrect Usage

Maintaining the integrity and consistency of the SBC logo shows integrity and professionalism for the brand itself. It also builds recognition and memorability. Please avoid these incorrect uses of the logo.
