Specs:

  • 36 pages + cover

  • 10 inch x 10 inch finished size

  • saddle stitch

  • vertical perforations throughout

  • 4/4

  • 80# Bright White Finch Opaque Vellum Cover

The paper stock was carefully selected to match the tone and feel of the piece.

It features some 8"x10" tear-out art pages that serve as "artful reminders."

A handful of these were printed and given to leaders. It also lived in digital format.

This was one of my favorite print projects to date that I’ve directed and designed. 

So many creative contributors to thank on this project. Thank you to @markbatterson and @nationalcommunitychurch staff and leaders; @reagan.douglas for the killer design on some of the key spreads, the Tear & Share icon set, and lots of other design elements; @noreenbryant for writing and editing and keeping us all on track; @joboomboom for helping us curate some beautiful art pages and meaningful content; @jiwonbaeq and @dave_tress for contributing ideas and photos and creating a seamless feel between video and digital/print; @theletterjane for beautiful lettering elements on a couple of the art pages; @emsletocq for the beautiful illustration on page 30; and to some of the best photographers I know that capture and contribute so so many beautiful moments, @obi.stg @ericatrierbaker @nickwelshphotography. And so so many others (past and present)! And @nccworship for The Jesus Way album that I streamed a ton while designing.
