Free Trial, Anyone?

We know choosing curriculum is a big investment. That’s why we want you to get to know us first! Our free trial is the easiest way to see if G Shades is the right fit for your ministry.

What's Included In Your Free Trial

Starter Docs: Vision & Tools

Includes our teaching strategy overview, the Curriculum Proposal Toolkit (for leadership buy-in), font files for visual consistency, and support tools designed for neurodiverse learners.

4 Week Teaching Series

Explore Range, a 4-week series on repentance that helps students trade artificial quick fixes for the full life offered in the gospel. With full video messages, teaching guides in several formats, and a built-in discipleship event, this series shows students how to stop running from God—and start growing in Him.

Three Plans. One Free Trial

Not sure yet which subscription plan will be right for your ministry? We’ve organized the free trial into three distinct tracks—Small G, Base G, and Top G—so you can explore the content style and scope that fits your rhythm. Test drive one or compare all three—no pressure, just clarity.

A guide for those learning key terms, plus a few easy focus tools to help students stay locked in during the lesson!
10-12 minute video messages so you don't always have to preach
Full message manuscripts if you prefer to deliver it yourself. Just open and go!
6-8 questions plus a hands-on activity to bring the message home.
the G shades free trial has lesson plans for small church youth groups
Built specifically for small youth groups, with lesson plans included even if ONE kid shows up!
Youth group-tested, size-flexible, and budget-friendly — graphics included.
