The Nike “swoosh” is an icon created in 1971 by Carolyn Davidson;  the Starbucks logo is an iconic mermaid that beckons coffee drinkers. It was created by Terry Heckler based on a classic 15th century Norse woodcut of the mythical siren; the Harley Davidson logo is an icon perhaps known around the world. Specialists say that the shape of the Harley Davidson logo is a bar and a shield, which is how the logo is more commonly known as. It features a shield over which lies a bar, both coming together in a very attractive manner;…Well, the list can go on and on. The truth is our life is surrounded by icons trying to communicate a specific message. In fact,  a message (product) that tries to define who we are, what we do, and how we behave. Now, what kind of message comes to mind when we visualize icons such as the burning bush and the rainbow? Furthermore, what kind of message comes to mind when we visualize icons such as the cross and the tomb? Join us during this month of April as we explore the significance of some powerful Biblical icons.
