Help find background for slides?

I'm learning to use the Sermon builder, and slides. I'm pleased overall with it, though I find it a little on the simple side. My biggest hurdle, is understanding how to sort through the tons of background images, and understanding what is a good background image. I want the text to stand out, and I prefer simple backgrounds that do not draw the focus away from the text. When I open up the Media window to find a new background image, I'm very overwhelmed in the options available. I'm not able to easily locate simple background images. I'm sure there is a simple way, I just don't know how.  I appreciate any help I can get on this. Thank you!

    Hi Shane 

    I understand your pain :-)

    I have given up doing it the way you describe.

    I simply export the slides as are, in my case to Proclaim and then change the background once they are in that program.

    One can import backgrounds to Proclaim and search the media store using key words such as 'purple', 'communion', 'baptism' etc.

    I imagine there are similar facilities in other presentation software.

    If you expand the top left menu (three horizontal lines stacked up) you can search by color and type of slide.

    What is a good example to put in the search box to find wordless background slides.  That is what I'm really want, and it is very difficult to find.
