Our Discover tab is designed to connect you with a wide variety of resources, downloadables, strategies, and pre-written text messages to help you become even more effective in engaging with people. You can save time and energy using these tried and true resources curated from our partners.

What can you find in Discover?

The Discover tab is arranged as lists of cards that you can click into and use. Each card will tell you in the top right corner what type of resource it contains.

These cards are arranged into categories based on the resource it offers:

Featured: Check out our new, popular, and featured resources in this section
Favorites: Any resource that you have favorited will be saved here for easy use later.
Hubs: Easily find all of the resources from a specific partner in one place.
- One key piece of the Discover tab is the He Gets Us Hub. This Hub contains all of the resources made available to you by the He Gets Us Campaign.
Kits: A collection of resources to execute a strategy. A Kit will often contain several different Templates and resources, as well as a guide on how to effectively use the Kit.
Scholarships: Gloo partner organizations are generously offering scholarships that you can take advantage of to advance your training and ministry.
Downloads: Files available to save- usually a guide, walkthrough, or creative asset designed to help you
Links: External online content supplementary to the rest of the resources in a Kit
Broadcast Templates: Templated one time text messages to blast to your people
Series Templates: Templated text messages sent over time that someone can opt into receiving- usually with devotional content or daily prayer prompts
Keyword Templates: Templated single response texts that are sent based on a trigger word- usually used to easily distribute additional links and resources to your people
