Step by Step

This is the step by step instead of the big paragraph I wrote to creat and import your lower thirds slides.

Select the first slide, then click Edit Slide.

Navigate to the Themes tab and click the + icon to create a new theme.

Name the theme according to the series you are working on.

Import your template into the new theme.

After importing, add a text box to the slide. Adjust the text box so it fits properly within the lower thirds area.

Copy the text from your series and match the font and color to the series style as closely as possible.

Add a second text box for the Bible verse.

Position this text box at the bottom of the slide. If possible, use the same font and color as the series text for consistency.

When the layout is complete, click Show to apply your edits.

Go to another slide, click Edit Slide, then open Themes again.

Select and apply the theme you just created to ensure consistent styling across all slides.
