You can purchase individual resources from the shop without a membership. From time to time we also offer promotional templates for free; this will be announced on social media or via our email list. All sales are final; please read the item description carefully before purchasing, and let us know if something you receive is not what you expected. We will work with you to make sure you receive what is advertised in the product listing!
Anyone with a membership is welcome to use Daylight Designs templates, and you do not need to be affiliated with a church or ministry to purchase a membership. Our Terms of Use and other policies still apply to your usage.
Our founder, Angela, still has her hand in much of the design work – but she partners with a global team of Christian graphic designers, many of whom are involved in the work their local churches are also doing to share Jesus with their neighbors.
Thank you for asking! Our designers are all Christians from a wide range of backgrounds, and our founder Angela is a member of a church of the Christian and Missionary Alliance denomination. (You can see their statement of faith here.) Note that we have no official affiliation with The Alliance, and our kits are designed to be applicable to a wide range of denominations.
We are a small team of real humans and don’t currently offer live chat or phone support, but we respond as quickly as possible during our business hours to messages sent through the contact form. If you need to speak with a human please use the contact form to request an appointment over the phone.
Contents of each kit are listed in the product listing. In general, most sermon kits include sermon slides, livestream overlays; social media squares, stories, and portraits; cover images for YouTube, Facebook, and web; printable flyers, bulletin covers, and sermon notes, and postcards.
At Daylight Designs, we believe our kits offer something truly special that will elevate your ministry in unique ways. Here’s how:
High quality / low pricing: We work hard to keep our quality high and our pricing low, especially for members who have committed to our platform. Many other sites are either not designed for churches, have higher costs, or offer inconsistent quality.
Coordinating resources for versatility: We create a wide range of design resources that coordinate with your sermon slides, helping your church foster a unified presence online and in physical gatherings.
Free editing with Canva: All our resources can be edited for free using the basic version of Canva. There’s no need for expensive software to customize our designs, making them accessible to all.
Connected with global ministries: We have a clear vision to make sharing Jesus simple by empowering Christian ministries to illuminate the world through exceptional Christ-focused design. By using our kits, you participate in our mission and fund future designs that will be used to share Jesus around the world.
Experience the difference with Daylight Designs kits and join us in spreading the message of Jesus!
Our templates are made in Canva, which you can access for free online. You may find certain benefits in applying for Canva for NonProfits, or paying for a pro-level account, but these are not necessary to use core features. Canva runs on most laptops, tablets, and smartphones with an Internet connection. You can see the system requirements here.
If you can use Word or PowerPoint – or Google Slides and Google Docs, or similar – you can use Canva. We provide a quickstart ebook guide that will walk you through everything you need to know, and Canva’s help documents are also really useful if you get stuck. Download the quickstart guide for free by signing up for our email list. The amount of time it takes to create a presentation depends on a number of factors like your past experience, number of slides, and complexity of your vision – but most people can turn basic notes into a simple slide presentation in well under an hour.
Almost everything! You can replace the text, switch the font, change the text color, size, or formatting. You can change the color of some graphics, and with a little advanced knowledge you can replace many images. You can move most of the design elements around to make the template fit your vision. And, you can edit worry-free because if you make a mistake you can undo your last few actions or even start fresh with the original template.
Yes! Our Terms of Use allow you to create products for sale using Daylight Designs templates, as long as you aren’t violating any other policies of either Canva or Daylight Designs (or any other relevant platforms) by doing so. You may not resell or distribute our templates in editable form, and you may not sell or distribute a product made from a template that has not been edited and made your own.
Your Daylight Designs membership entitles you to use our resources within a single Canva team for a single organization. Any member of that Canva team may use the templates you have downloaded, but they are subject to our usage agreements in the same way you are. Daylight Designs memberships and/or products may not be shared between Canva teams or between Canva users who are not part of the same team.
Daylight Designs templates are created and edited in Canva, which has integrations with many different social media and presentation platforms. You can see the full list of integrations here. If you prefer to download a file, or your integration isn’t listed, we recommend downloading presentation slides in PNG format, to be imported to your presentation software. Print documents can be downloaded in PDF format with various options that can be useful when sending a file to a commercial printer. You can also consult our free Quick-Start guide for more details about saving and sharing your customized template!
The best value is the All-Access Membership, which includes unlimited downloads at a low flat rate, billed quarterly. You can make sure you know about all our new kits and any extra member perks by following us on social media and signing up for our email list. You can even earn free months by sharing your success story or by referring friends.
You can earn up to one free month per month, as long as your all-access membership is active. You can earn this either by referring friends to purchase their own memberships, or by being the first one in your town or city to share your success story on our website. If you use Daylight Designs resources in multiple cities or towns, you can share a success story for each location and potentially earn a free month of membership for each one! Remember you can only earn one free month per month. See terms and conditions.
We are always looking for ideas for future resources, and it’s important for us to create something you’ll be able to use! If you have a series coming up in a couple of months, use the “suggest a design” link on your membership dashboard to let us know what you’re looking for. We aren’t able to accommodate every request we receive, but we’ll do what we can!
We are committed to adding at least one new kit every month – and as more members sign up, we plan to direct some of that funding to creating more resources! Eventually we hope to add 2-3 sermon series kits each month, plus additional bonus resources. Our immediate goal is to complete one kit for each book of the New Testament. After that, we plan to finish the set by creating a kit for each book of the Old Testament as well. Eventually, we plan on creating topical resources, additional variants of the books of the Bible sermon kits, and other types of resources like social media content packs, first impressions kits for your guest services ministry, event plans for your student ministry, and other “how-to” resources stemming from our decades of church ministry experience. We would love to hear from you about your ideas of additional resources that would be useful for your ministry! Please contact us to share your thoughts.
We set a portion the profits from each membership fee aside to help sponsor design resources for ministries in need around the world. This funding can provide individual kits, or in some cases, scholarships to cover part of the cost of a membership. Contact us to apply for financial assistance.
Yes! If you represent a denomination or network of ministries and would like to make discounted memberships available to members of your organization, you may qualify for a group discount. We currently offer 10% off for groups with 10+ memberships, or 25% off for groups with 20+ memberships. Just contact us to set up pricing for your group.
Sure! Just sign up for the Customization add-on which includes one set of slides per week, created from your notes. Combine this add-on with All-Access membership to enjoy unlimited templates from the Daylight Designs template shop!
While our team has limited availability for custom work, we’re open to creating custom designs when we can! Please contact us to let us know what you have in mind and to request a quote. We’ll do our best to accommodate your request and create a custom kit just for you.
At this time, we are focusing our efforts on the types of designs you see in the shop. We do not currently design other types of products.
We are a small team of real humans and don’t currently offer live chat or phone support, but we respond as quickly as possible during our business hours to messages sent through the contact form. Most questions can be answered over email, but if you need to speak with a human please use the contact form to request an appointment over the phone.
