XP3 Students is about giving you tools that you can use however you want, whenever you want.

It’s about awakening spirituality.
XP3 . . .

  • provides topical series that connect with students and help them navigate foundational truths and cultural scenarios (for available series, click here).
  • creates teaching scripts that your communicators can take and personalize to fit their own teaching style.
  • provides small group dialogs that help students wrestle with and personalize the truths from the lesson.
  • equips you with creative elements (ideas for sets, background playlists, graphics) because we believe your environment can play a key role in communicating as well.
  • knows that sometimes middle school students need to approach truths in a different way, and we provide ideas to help you customize the content to fit their needs.

It’s about engaging the family.
XP3 . . .

  • cues parents so that BOTH parents and students can have a point of conversation about the subject matter, and learn from one another.
  • provides a connecting point for your student ministry that goes beyond a release form or payment request. We provide content to post or email to encourage parents to fight for the relationship with their child.

It’s about restoring the world.
XP3 . . .

  • moves students from information to experience by giving them an experiential activity with every topical series so they can live out the truths they learn.
  • encourages students to be active in the church, local community and the world so that they can demonstrate God’s restoration.

An online-based licensing agreement to XP3 Students provides each church with the following:

TEACHING SCRIPT:
The teaching script is a script provided for the communicator that is designed to set up the small group dialogs.

SMALL GROUP DIALOG:
We believe that small groups are the place where students process truth in an environment where they have established relationships. We communicate within each small group dialog where we feel the conversation should land, and provide questions to help leaders dialog with students as a way of arriving at those truths.

THE XP:
The XP is an experiential way your students can live out what they are learning in each series.

PARENT CUE:
The Parent Cue helps a parent and student connect through dialog or shared experiences, and gives the student pastor a way to encourage and cue parents to talk about spiritual topics with their teens as well.

MIDDLE SCHOOL ADAPTATION:
We have provided illustrations and activities for each session to help you communicate the heart of each series to middle school students. Many series also include middle school specific small group questions to better engage that age group.

GRAPHIC SUPPORT:
Each series includes an ecard jpeg image, a hi-res jpeg poster and web banners to help you promote the series. Also included are motion loops that can be used in your presentation software, as well as PowerPoint/Keynote backgrounds.

* XP3 Students also creates videos to supplement each series. The videos are not included with each series, but are available for an additional purchase to help you communicate your message and create an environment. For available videos, click here.

The Orange Difference

Each one of our curriculums is:

1. SUPPORTED BY A NETWORK OF EXPERIENCED LEADERS
Each church is assigned an Orange Specialist to personally assist in implementing curriculum and strategy. They’ll also help you establish a network on http://www.OrangeLeaders.com with other leaders who use a similar style of ministry.

2. COMPREHENSIVE IN ITS APPROACH TO AGE GROUPS
Orange is the only curriculum to offer a strategic plan that starts in preschool and spans through college. We use the term Scope and Cycle to illustrate the recurring themes of wonder, discovery and passion that mark a child’s understanding of God. This overall strategy synchronizes the efforts of all age-group leaders and parents around common goals for the spiritual growth of kids.

3. DESIGNED TO CONNECT EVERY KID TO A CONSISTENT LEADER
The curriculum builds on the idea that spiritual growth is relationally driven. When you put another trusted adult in the life of a child or teenager, besides their parents, you provide an additional clear voice reinforcing core values. So, our strategy emphasizes small groups, making it easy to connect kids to mentors and leaders who can personally invest in them.

4. UPDATED FREQUENTLY SO IT STAYS RELEVANT
Orange curriculum is known for innovation and creativity. Our writers, editors, video producers and creative directors continually seek new ways to say, show and teach timeless truths. You can download newly created resources every month (two months prior to when they will be taught).

5. EASY TO CUSTOMIZE FOR YOUR CHURCH
Our curriculum trademark: bend it, shape it, make it your own. Because it’s web-based, the material can be crafted to fit your environment, using editable text files and customizable graphics.

XP3 Students is more than a curriculum that you and your staff use for teaching. It’s a ministry strategy for your entire church. Read about the Orange Strategy and how XP3 Students fits into the master plan.
