Do your kids have the faith they need to stand strong?
Many kids today walk away from the faith because they never experienced Scripture personally. They know the stories of the Bible, but they don't have a clear understanding of how they fit into God's plan, or how it applies to them.
God's Story New Testament Bible Study helps kids understand the Gospel by showing how the entire Bible fits together into one big redemptive story. It gives history, context, and purpose to their faith, and most importantly, points kids to their need for a relationship with Jesus.
In this 5-week study of the New Testament, families will:

What version of the Bible do you use?
I study and write using the KJV and ESV Bibles. However, my studies are written with the intent that children and families will look up Scripture in the Bible of their choice, with specific attention taken to assure questions can be answered from a variety of translations. So you should be able to use whatever version your family prefers. It's my passion to see kids opening the Bible themselves, so we've been very intentional about this.
What do you believe?
I believe that the Bible is the absolute authority in matters of faith and practice. It's 100% true, with no exceptions or figurative sections. I believe in the verbal, plenary inspiration of Scripture; in one God eternally existing in three Persons; in the creation of all things, including man, as the direct act of God; in eternally secure salvation by grace through faith in the shed blood of the Lord Jesus Christ; in the incarnation and virgin birth of Christ, and in His bodily resurrection; in the personal, bodily, premillennial return of the Lord Jesus Christ and His millennial reign on earth.
What age level should I buy?
This is by far the most common question we get around here. Please check out this video. I'll show you the differences between the levels and walk you through how to use them as a family!
How many copies should I buy?
If you are buying digital, you only need one copy. If you plan to share with people outside of your home (like a group, co-op, church, etc.), you will need a site license to do so. Those can be found on each product's page.
If you are buying softcover, you should purchase one copy per child. This will enable children to write in the book, as it is designed to record their drawings and responses to the Word.
How long are your studies?
Each Bible study is a slightly different length, ranging from 20 lessons to 28 lessons. We suggest doing one lesson a day. Most kids find that it takes about 15 minutes a day.
Studies with 20 lessons:
Obey
Do Right
Fruit of the Tongue
My Brother's Keeper
Navigating Friendships
A Content Heart
Becoming a Servant
Making Peace
Studies with 25 lessons:

Developing a Quiet Time
I purchased God's Story study through the New Testament for my kids club girls. My class ranges from junior to upper teens and they are all really enjoying the study in junior level books. I am so thankful to Not Consumed for a lovely curriculum that makes my job as a teacher much easier.
My 4th grade girl wants to dig in and read the Bible herself, but some of the Old Testament cultural difference she struggles to wrap her head around. This was a great first dive into the Old Testament.
I got this study for my 8 and 10 year old. We are working on the Old Testament study first (which we love) and can't wait to get into the New Testament! I love the way these studies are set up - not too much 'work' so they stay interested in what they are learning.
I purchase this book for my kindergarten boy. I want him to understand God in a very practical, personal and real way. This book is a fun, short but complete, way to introduce him to the New Testament. So far, we read a kid's Bible and it's mostly stories. But this will go over the all the books in 25 lessons for a more complete understanding of Jesus's story and his church. This is not too in depth, but considering the primary level target age, it is enough. I love the attention to detail from this company. The book starts with a bookshelf for the kids to put each book sticker after each lesson. The lesson itself is not long. As a parent, you read all the text, then look for 3-4 Bible verses (this is a good way to open to Bible and make your child help you look). After a short discussion, your child does an activity page which is simple, like a drawing or coloring, simple writing, matching lines, etc., one per lesson. The study finishes with a simple prayer and putting the sticker in the bookshelf. For the price, it is a great way to learn about Jesus and the church. I saw that they have a parent book. I was thinking that any adult who is not familiar with the Bible could use this study to learn about it in a very easy way. Great product from this company.
