No Slider Posts Showing or really working

I have enabled my slider and I have made them posts and put the ID's in. However, the slider does not show and furthermore when I click on the text of the title of the slide it opens to another page as a post! Please help! I'm trying to help my church redo their website without having to spend money on an expensive and busy theme when there are ones that can do the same that are free and look sleeker. *Note--this is not my church's page exactly. This is my "sandbox" WordPress page to work in so that when I do get things arranged I can easily go into the actual site and do everything there. If there is a way for me to put an attachment of the image of the issue I can do that. Thanks Eri
