We know that some of you are finishing up your shopping for Christmas 2025. Others of you just finished Christmas shopping for 1993!

Regardless of how far ahead you plan your Sunday School lessons, we want to give you ample time to prepare. Although the lessons can be used at any time during the year, GO! works best when you follow the curriculum calendar. Each unit will be made available for download beginning 3 months in advance of its "use" date on the calendar. This will give you between 3-4 months to plan ahead.

The preschool scope and sequence generally follows the elementary scope and sequence (same section of the Bible at the same time), but it will go at a pace that is more age-appropriate for preschoolers. Sometimes the stories will be the same, but sometimes they are different.

GO! is not for people who want a video-driven curriculum. In other words, if you're looking to pop in a video and have it teach the lesson for you, you will be sorely disappointed in GO!

That doesn't mean we don't have video elements.

We do.

Some lessons have more, some less, and some not at all. But when we use video, it supplements the lesson, it doesn't teach it. And that's on purpose.

GO! is uniquely interactive. It's a chronological children's ministry curriculum designed to get kids out of their seats and into the storytelling action.

You can't do that with a video.

Every 4-5 weeks, GO! uses a different interactive storytelling method that helps kids "Join the Story."

Why?

Because it's more fun than sitting still while someone talks at you. Because it engages multiple learning styles. Because it helps kids remember what they learned. Because it gives them a healthy break from their video saturated world.

No...GO! is not for everyone. It's only for people who want an active curriculum that creatively engages kids in Biblical storytelling.

That's who we are.

We're 100% confident that you'll love the GO! curriculum and will use it in your children's ministry for many years to come. If for some reason, though, you decide it's not working for you, we're happy to cancel your subscription and return your money for the remaining lessons you never had access to. Because the GO! lessons are available for download up to 4 months in advance, this means you'll be credited for lessons that were not available for you to download. This is only applicable to subscribers. For individual unit purchases, there are no returns.

Umm... this seems like a strange place for that question, but okay. Try putting a lazy Susan in the fridge. It'll allow you to easily find and access the items in the back and will therefore help to reduce waste.

There is no bad time to begin using GO! The GO! scope and sequence begins with Genesis in the month of August and works its way through the Bible over the course of the ministry year.
If you join mid-story, though, GO! has you covered. The first lesson of every elementary-aged unit has a "Big Bible Story" recap to help kids who are just joining understand the story from the beginning. It also serves as a reminder for the kids who've been with the story the entire time.

No. We’re fully confident that you’ll want to use GO! year after year, but you’ll have to manually renew your subscription at the end of the 12-month subscription period.

No way! We place a high value on giving you the final say on Sunday School lessons. We therefore only offer lessons as customizable Microsoft Word documents.

Not only do we want you to have customizable kid's church lessons, we want to give you the ability to add your own matching slides. The "Blank Slide" has the same design elements from the other unit slides, but without the words so that you can make it say whatever you want. We even include the name of the font used for each series in the file name so that you can make your slides match seamlessly with the ones provided.

Did your dog eat the electronic file too?

Umm... yes he did.

That's strange! But yes—you can download the lessons as many times as you need for as long as they're available. Old units will be removed as soon as the next unit becomes available.

The GO! user agreement specifies that lessons be used within one consecutive 12-month period. GO! lessons are being updated and made more relevant for kids during each cycle.

We don’t want GO! to be cost prohibitive for anyone! If for some reason, your church or ministry cannot afford the subscription price for GO!, we’re happy to work with you. Give us a call at 1-800-684-2302.

In 1988, a New York fish and wildlife technician named Richard Thomas calculated that on a good day, with the wind at his back, a woodchuck could chuck about 700 lbs of wood (that is…if a woodchuck could chuck wood, which it can't—so it's irrelevant).

It depends. If by "frequently," you mean "never," then yes--it's one of the most frequently asked questions.
