“The Disruptor” was designed as a bold and thought-provoking sermon series graphic for a church seeking to challenge its congregation to embrace the radical and countercultural nature of Jesus’ ministry. The goal was to create a design that felt intense and commanding yet still clean enough to work across digital and print platforms. The series explores moments when Jesus disrupted cultural norms and religious traditions to bring truth and transformation, so the design needed to reflect this disruptive energy.
To capture this theme, I chose a dramatic historic illustration of Jesus overturning the tables in the temple as the foundation for the artwork. This image was layered with modern, geometric type to create a visual tension between tradition and contemporary relevance—mirroring the idea of disruption.
The typographic treatment of “The” in a flowing script contrasts with the rigid, blocky “DISRUPTOR” to emphasize both the elegance and force in Christ’s actions. Subtle overlays of the word “DISRUPT” in the background build depth and movement without distracting from the main title.
