Learn How to Get the Most Out of Grow

Grow isn't just curriculum — it's a complete annual strategy for your ministry. Alongside weekly teaching content, you get volunteer strategy, family ministry strategy, discipleship activities, events, and planning resources that all work together across the year.

Grow is built to flex to churches of every size, format, and calendar. Editable files, adaptable service structures, and free planning resources make it easy to shape Grow around your ministry — and our Grow Strategists are happy to help you build a plan on a free Zoom call.

You can read our full statement of faith on our website — we're happy to share exactly where we stand. If you have questions about our theology or approach, reach out and our team will gladly talk it through with you.

Credits are the currency of the Grow Marketplace—the units you can use to buy Grow resources. You can use credits to get access to teaching series, events, discipleship tools, and more.

Since different resources have different values, credits help keep it simple. For example:

• 4-week series = 1 credit
• 6-week series = 1.5 credits
• Music tracks = 0.25 credits

Buy the credits you need, spend them how you want.

You've got options! Here's how to get credits in the Grow Marketplace—

• Buy credits (Pay as you go): Make a one-time purchase and get credits you can use immediately.
• Credit subscription: You can choose a monthly or annual delivery and your credits will show up automatically. Your card will be charged at the scheduled time each month or year.

Add a card under Account Settings → Billing → Payment Method. Or, you can simply add items to your cart and enter your payment information at checkout (your card will be saved for next time).

Better question: What can't you buy with credits? You can use your credits on everything in the Grow Marketplace, including:

• Teaching series (2-week, 4-week, 5-week, 6-week)
• Teaching Bundles (a year's worth of teaching content for one age group)
• VBS & Discipleship activities
• Events (summer camps, retreats, and just-for-fun events)
• Volunteer and Family resources
• Music
• Games

If it's in the Grow Marketplace, you can buy it with credits.

A credit subscription is a recurring plan that adds credits to your account monthly or annually—whatever works best for you. Payments will be processed on that same schedule, and subscriptions automatically renew unless canceled before the renewal date.

For annual plans, your renewal (and next batch of credits) happens on the anniversary of your first purchase.

You can choose from several options:

• Monthly: 1 or 3 credits per month
• Annual: 13, 21, or 50 credits per year

Want to switch plans or pause your subscription? You can manage everything from your account settings.

A credit subscription comes with two major benefits—

1. It saves you money. Subscriptions are discounted compared to pay-as-you-go pricing. For example, 1 credit/month is $90 with a subscription, but $97 if purchased individually.
2. It includes access to Grow tools. All credit subscriptions (monthly and annual) come with free access to Grow Hubs, Grow Slides, and Lesson Builder. If you buy credits as a one-time bundle or pay as you go, those tools aren't included (but can each be added separately for $9.97/month or $97/year).

Heads up: credit subscriptions auto-renew unless you cancel before your renewal date.
