We don’t offer an installment plan for paying the curriculum license fee. Full payment is due at the time the license is purchased. close

Pretty much immediately. During the sign up process, you will be able to choose the license start date. All materials are available two months in advance, and immediate access is granted to the materials. For example, if you wish your license to start with September’s curriculum, you will begin to have access to the September download page during the first week of July. Which is pretty sweet for obvious reasons. close

Nope. The First Look curriculum contains lessons for toddlers, 2s, and 3- to 5-year-olds each week. close

Yes. All three curriculums have separate licensing agreements. Please visit https://www.whatisorange.org for all the information you can handle on curriculum for children and students. close

The First Look, 252 Basics and XP3 Students curriculums are aligned in strategy but differ in content. At Orange, we feel that when all age groups discuss the same subject, relevance is compromised. There are issues that each age group faces in specific ways, and when there is a blanket topic, usually one (or more) groups is forced to fit with the subject matter. close

That would be nice wouldn’t it—but no. The license agreement enables an organization to use the curriculum during a specified consecutive 12-month period. The license doesn't provide possession of the materials for reuse outside of a current license agreement. Remember, it’s all about strategy. close

Oh, tons! We provide a line of supplemental resources that can enhance the use of the First Look curriculum. They include: a Bible story DVD, and an intro sketch DVD to use during the large group experience, music CDs, posters, books and more. To see the complete line of resources, go to https://www.whatisorange.org close

No. Licenses are only sold in 12-month periods. We sell them in 12-month blocks because there’s no way you could use them for only one month. Are you kidding? You’ll be hooked in one week! Geesh. Just looking out for you. close

What’s a check? We have no idea what those are. Our computers only accept digital payment online during the sign up process. We are slowly turning into robots. We accept major credit cards and e-checks. E-checks are an electronic draft from a checking account. By using the e-check feature, you will enter the routing number, checking account number and bank name online. Oh, a check! As in, take the “e” off of e-check. No, we don’t accept those. With our luck Reggie would make a paper airplane out of it. close

Afraid not. We at Orange pride ourselves on not being bankers. We let the computers take care of all of it. For more info on payment see the "Do you accept checks?" question above. close

Sure. Our registration system will email a receipt for the license to the e-mail address indicated at the time of sign up. Please check any junk mail or SPAM folders. Receipts can also be found online by logging in, clicking the admin tab, then clicking account history, then billing history. You will then be able to select the receipt and print it. If it sounds like a robot wrote the last three sentences, that because it did. His name is Ronny the Robot. close

Ok, this is tricky so please read slowly. When a church purchases a year license, the price is discounted significantly from the monthly cost. The cancellation of the license nullifies that discount, and a fee of $200 for each downloaded month (full or partial) by any user on your account will be deducted from your refund. There is also a $50 cancellation fee. Cancellations are accepted within 60 days of account sign up or renewal with the following fees imposed: 1) $50.00 cancellation fee 2) $200.00 for each month's curriculum previously downloaded. Only one cancellation per curriculum license is allowed per organization. THE TOTAL REFUND DUE WILL EQUAL THE ORIGINAL LICENSE FEE PAYMENT, LESS THE $50 CANCELLATION FEE AND ANY APPLICABLE DOWNLOAD CHARGES. close

Orange Specialists are regional representatives who are actively involved in the implementation of this curriculum at a local church. The Specialists are available to answer questions about implementing the curriculum, generating involvement from the community, editing materials to fit specific environments and much more. To talk with your Specialist, click here. close

Orange offers training through The Orange Tour and The Orange Conference. Go ahead, click the links to find out more about these great training opportunities. close

Probably because we forgot to add them. OR You could try this: when using Adobe Reader and printing grayscale, please be sure to set the Advanced Option for "Set Font and Reserve Policy" to "Send At Start." close

That's crazy. When Reggie prints them, the boxes are blue and orange. When printing, be sure to open the PDF documents with Adobe Acrobat Reader, and then proceed to print. Printing the PDFs from the preview pane and not Adobe Acrobat Reader will sometimes create black boxes on the printed page. close

Usernames and passwords from the curriculum sites don't automatically work on each other, or subsidiary sites. All web sites and accounts for Orange are separate and therefore require separate account setup. For the Orange Store, a profile will need to be setup before placing an order. close

All PDFs within the curriculum are copyright protected as a whole, due to the use of graphics, layout and design. That means all the PDFs are password-protected. If you would like to edit the material, you can do so by using the Word documents provided. close

You will need to have a CD writer and appropriate software. Most CD writers come with software included. An example of software which will create an audio CD is iTunes. close

This can be a touchy subject for sure. All music we provide is copyrighted. Our writers and performers depend on royalties earned through purchased music. To request permission to create CDs from the music, please contact us. close

If you are experiencing problems with your PDFs displaying only a white page, or you are receiving an error that the viewer cannot decrypt the document, please update your Adobe Reader to the latest version. You will find the most recent installers at https://www.adobe.com close

Once the curriculum is pulled off of the web site, it is archived in a database. Curriculum cannot be retrieved outside of a license's terms. There is also a $25 charge per month retrieval fee. (The information regarding retrieval fees can be found in the license agreement: "In the event that you require materials that are no longer available on the website, retrieval is available for a fee of up to $25.00 for a complete month retrieved.") Also, since the original license purchase grants use of the curriculum, rather than possession of the curriculum, the months being retrieved are only valid to be used during a current license period. To retrieve past curriculum from a former license to be used within an active license, please contact us. close

Of course. We have an intern who keeps all our chord charts taped to the walls. He's constantly rearranging them and jamming out to the songs. Sometimes he blends them together, which is odd sounding. But if you'd rather not call our intern and ask him to find a chart for you, then visit https://www.amberskyrecords.org for all your chord chart needs. close

Full mix songs, performance tracks, and music videos with lyrics and/or dance moves can be purchased and downloaded as singles at https://www.amberskyrecords.com Full .CD's can be found at https://www.therethinkstore.org close

To change the primary user information, the current primary user can log in and modify the account with updated information. Should the primary user leave, a secondary user, or new ministry leader can change the primary user info by contacting us. Our lawyer wrote this answer. Can you tell? close

A secondary user can be a volunteer, staff member or teacher that needs access to the materials for downloading and distributing. A secondary user is not able to make any changes to the account. Why? Because he or she is secondary! Sorry for yelling (smiley face). close

To add a secondary user, the primary user or coach must first log in. On their Curriculum Administration and User Management page (the page seen directly after log in), there will be the option to add secondary users. If you want to add more secondary users than the number you received with your initial license agreement, they are available at a charge of $20 per 10 users per year. To request more users contact us. close

PC Users: If you are on a PC, first of all that is just too bad (just kidding, hope the IT guys don't read the FAQ). You probably have a temporary file hanging around from a previous failed download. You should go to Start menu > Settings > Control Panels > Internet Options. From the General tab, click on the button in the Temporary Internet Files panel. Click on the Delete Files button to remove any failed download or partial download of that file. Also, Click on the 'Settings' button in this same panel and make sure that your browser is set to 'Check for newer version of stored pages' at 'every visit to the page.' Apply the changes and close the 'Internet Options' window. Mac Users: If you are on a Mac, congratulations (simmer down, just kidding)! You can accomplish the same thing by going to 'Preferences > Advanced > Empty Now' under 'Cache Settings.' close

At its core, wonder, discovery and passion are really just another way of phrasing what Jesus said was the greatest commandment, the summary of all the other commandments: “‘Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind.’ This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself’” (Matthew 22:37-39 NIV). The three experiences of wonder, discovery and passion can be defined by certain core truths that we believe are “the end in mind,” the end goal of what we want a student to believe when he or she moves into adulthood. WONDER I am created to pursue an authentic relationship wtih my Creator. DISCOVERY I belong to Jesus Christ and define who I am by what He says. PASSION I exist every day to demonstrate God've love to a broken world. close
