Logo Design Brief

Slogan
Technology. Ministry. Life.
What We Do
Nerd of God is a new technology blog for Christians (offering a secondary appeal to tech fans in general) focusing on technology and its application to ministry and life. While encompassing a broad range of tech products and services, it will offer a strong Apple-centric vibe.
Industry
Technology
Color Preferences
I'm open to most color elements. I want a logo that works well on most backgrounds, but especially white and gray.
Our Ideas & Additional Information
I have included the original logo for Nerd of God. It's not awful, but it lacks distinction. It doesn't pop. It's too cluttered looking. I don't really like the color mix. It just doesn't stand out from the crowd. I want something that identifies well the tech/nerd and "religious" elements portrayed in the byline Technology. Ministry. Life. But, the byline does not necessarily need to be part of the logo.

I will leave more specific feedback later today, but on the initial logo designs, there are a couple of points I want to make now. First, I prefer the more horizontal layouts as in #7, #8 and #9. I also prefer the darker text for "Nerd of God" in #1, #5, #6, #7 and #8 over the blue text in #9, #10 and #11. A more simple and stylistic approach is definitely preferred. So far, though, I'm not ready to rank the existing submissions as they are not close enough to what I'm looking for yet.

It looks like we're starting to make some good progress here now with some cleaner, bolder logos. However, I would like to see some additional logos with colors other than blue as the primary color. I would like to see different ideas for the image part of the logo, too.
