Does teaching responsibility and good work habits seem impossible?
We all want to have responsible kids, but sometimes it can be easier to do it ourselves than to fight the battles. But easy can come at a cost. When we don't help our kids see the value of hard work, we aren't equipping them for the life God has for them!
One day they will move out, and unless The Jetsons send Rosie over, our kids will need to learn to cook and clean. Not to mention they will need good work habits in order to provide for their families and fulfill God's calling in their lives.
In this Bible study, Work Unto the Lord, we will learn where the idea of work comes from, how God has uniquely designed us for the work He has given us, and how we can develop good work habits.
Work is NOT a dirty word (despite what others will tell you). In fact, work is a gift from God! Are you ready to learn how you can see it that way too? While we still have kids in our homes, we need to take advantage of the time we have to teach them the work ethics they will use for many years to come!
Why you'll love this Bible study
The study spans 4 weeks with 5 lessons a week.
Our Bible studies are available in 3 levels that work together perfectly for family study. Each lesson has a consistent key truth, key Scripture, and central theme no matter what age level your kids are working in.
Each study in the family Bible study bundle also comes with a fun pack including verse cards, stickers, and a bookmark. A button is also included with each study in the bundle.
Parent Guide
Our parent guide is the perfect addition to help you easily facilitate family Bible study. Each day, you will progress through the same main ideas and key passages your kids will be studying. Plus, we've added parent tips along the way to help you lead the discussion as a family.
Having the whole family thinking on the same key truths of Scripture will create a more natural environment to talk about the Lord. We know you'll love it!
Help the Bible come to life for your kids through award-winning audio dramas. The Do Right Bible study bundle makes an excellent faith-filled gift as it encourages spiritual growth through engaging Bible study, exciting audio drama, and daily truth reminders (that just so happen to look pretty cool).
This CD is supplemental and can be used before, during, or after your study. You decide!
Malcolm and the Missing Prince ($25 retail)
Young Prince Hubert is incorrigible, unmanageable, and tiresomely demanding. What is the good King to do? How will his selfish Prince ever learn to rule the kingdom well? His most trusted friend, Sir Malcolm, has a plan. Prince Hubert is swept away to a land where he is simply known as Hugh, a peasant boy. His silks are replaced with rough work clothes, his castle dwelling with a humble cottage. It is here that Hugh learns valuable life lessons from the widow of the forest.
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 difference 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 recording 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.

Obey
Do Right
Fruit of the Tongue

My KIDS love it, AND, I love it! The challenge videos were a phenomenal way to kick off our study, and they were sad we only had five, haha! My kids are 8yo, 6.5yo, and 5.5yo, two girls and a boy. They are eager to get to work, they love contributing, earning commissions, and growing in responsibility and trustworthiness. I have guarded my schedule to invest more time with training them on chores (that's why I picked the summer to do this study, when I can afford to spend more time on this with them). The immediate inspections are great for them AND me. They see how the Lord has entrusted work to them, they see it as a gift, and they are grateful. On the occasions when they don't "feel" like it, I remind them of the Scriptural truths, and they adjust well and quickly. The thing is, I have been teaching them these principles and truths their whole lives, but this study SOLIDIFIES it, AND, we have UNITY as a family, as we are all on the same literal page. So glad I got each kid their own book. Worth it!!!
After our first week, we had our hiring day. They LOVED applying for their jobs. After the second week, they had their first pay day, and, we held a lemonade stand.
They love it when I remind them to "pour some sugar on it" (SO helpful!), and we will often play music to set the mood. They are learning to genuinely love the gift of work, and they are working hard at it, and I couldn't be more grateful! Thank you, Kim!
I have told many friends about Not Consumed and your excellent support and resources!
I’ve looked through it and love it. My son and I are starting this tomorrow.
We have grown and learned so much from this Bible Study. When it came time to cleaning the basement all my children complied quickly and without a bribe or consequence. Thank God for this Bible Study!
Once again, Another brilliant Bible study by Not Consumed.
As always, this was another great study. I love how going through these studies with my children always convict me and speak to my heart as well!
I wanted to start family bible time and this is a great tool to be able to start that. I was feeling overwhelmed with what to do and how to make it interesting. This fits perfectly and works well with our family.
