Graphics for a sermon series
A sermon series reads as one thing when the title, the style, and the colors stay put and only the week’s line changes. Make the slide, the square, and the thumbnail as three briefs that share those locks. Fast Ministry Graphics does not have a separate “series mode.” Consistency is the brief you repeat.

Lock three things
- The series title, spelled the same way every week, including the articles.
- The style: Atmospheric, Editorial, Minimalist — pick one and stop.
- The title’s position: left, low, or centered. Say it every time.
Change one thing
The week number, the sermon title, or the scripture. If you also change the photograph, the palette, and the type, you have a new series. Guests will not connect Sunday to the post they saw on Wednesday.
The set for a typical week
- 16:9 sermon slide for the room and the stream.
- Square post for the feed, with fewer words than the slide.
- YouTube thumbnail if you publish the video, with the fewest words of all.
- A story only if you are actually posting one. Do not make files you will not use.
A brief you can start from
Sermon slide, series title The Long Road, week 4, Luke 15, same cinematic look as the rest of the series, title on the left.Open this brief
Questions
How do I fix week three so it matches week one?
Put week one’s title position and style in the new brief, and say “match a quiet cinematic title on the left.” If a generated file is close, edit the words rather than rerolling the picture.
Should the church logo be on every slide?
On the holding slide, yes. On the scripture slide, usually no. A logo competing with a verse makes both smaller.
